    Mine has recently started to lose it's tracking of my truck. It has me going across rivers and empty fields (everything but the road I'm on)! This normally lasts about 10 to 15 minutes. It appears the Uconnect needs to be updated

    What was foolish was the factory placing the exhaust in that location (unless their goal was to heat up the transmission faster). This is the last place you want a hot exhaust during the summer while towing (let alone when you need to change your fluid). For anyone who is not sure what I'm...

    8 Speed 8PH70 Question

    I would not run Redline on the 8 speed. This transmission requires a proprietary fluid http://www.ramforum.com/threads/zf-8hp70-ppe.100763/

    I'm using a Stainless Works exhaust system. However where the Y pipe connects actually goes to the stock location so you should be good! The guys at Mike's Muffler Shop did an amazing job!!! If anyone is located near the Los Angeles and are interested in having them do your exhaust. Send me a...

    It's very similar to the Mag Hytec

    I was thinking they only came in one color but I digged in and discovered they come in 3 finishes. Aluminum, Black and Brushed (Black and Brushed cost more). Glad they didn't pull a Henry Ford and say "any color you want as long as it's aluminum!"

    Thanks! I opted for the brushed finish (to match the Mag Hytec)! And the other thing was to go out there and find the best deal! $263 delivered for the aluminum finish!
