I don’t know everything. Just stating what’s literally printed on my truck and I never said I would disregard payload. If I tow heavy I’ll measure the weights. If I’m over, I’d adjust the weight. Hell you can even add weight to help out. If payloads over and the item is centered but you’re...
Sorry but I disagree and I know my numbers for my exact truck. I’m not just quoting a work sheet, I’m reading my door numbers.
Where you place your load depends the most. I won’t max out a payload before 32k if all the weights at the back of the trailer and it’s lifting the back end up...
Lol the difference from the 3.73 to 4.10 is 1,360lbs towing or 0.37 final drive. Going to a 255/80/17 I’ll be around 3.59 or 0.14 final drive difference. Lol I think I’m good losing around 500lbs of towing.
Lol 100% realize. Pretty sure a 5300 payload and 32,000 towing isn’t gonna care to much from an extra 1.3” diameter or 0.65” taller in ride height and 7lbs per tire of rotational weight. That loss of 3hp and tq is really gonna kill me!! Haha
Well FYI for the price I ended up with a 2022 3500 6.7 dually 3.7 with 58k.
1. I’ll leave it alone because I’m covered for 100,000 miles and 5 more years.
2. Just going to add some 33’s or 1 size up as they fit better.
I keep getting an intermittent airbag light on my 2022 to 3500. Will it save if scanned or does it have to be active to see? I have 59,000 miles so I believe I’m out of bumper to bumper. It’s a 6.7 so I know the drive trains good to 100,000 miles or 6 years. I also believe it’ll be the...
This is 100% my thoughts others may not be getting. I don’t want to tune the tranny or get more power. Simply delete a failure point. That’s all. MPG would be nice but not a must have. As for tires, I’d only do it on a non dually. The dually i’d leave alone. Cheapest Aisin i see is in...
You’re correct, i may not be up to date. I’m only going off forum threads where people have issues and YouTube videos of people with issues and the mechanics that work on them giving their 2 cents. I can only get knowledge from the info I’m seeing. Here’s me now trying to learn more.
I understand what you’re saying but saying millions spent and engineers in a room are better etc is basically saying a stock item or vehicle never breaks and that’s just foolish thinking. Engineers get it wrong all the time. People are killed all the time. Lemons happen all the time. Were...
I wouldn’t hook 20k up though. Looked at a 97 f250 fully rebuilt and they are only rated at 12,500 so I would try to do more. That’d be foolish. But no, im not opposed to a gasser hence option 1.
