    Winch bumber recommendations?

    Have a 2001 2500 and I’d like to add a winch bumper and winch. I dont want to spend $2k on a Ranchhand-style bumper. I want it to look good of course but i dont have to have that kind of money in a bumper. Any thoughts on a good basic winch bumper? Winch?

    vibration after 5" lift

    I didn't try that but it does seem to smooth out if I let off the accelerator. I guess that would be sort of the same. At first I thought it was a bad tire since the tires are brand new, but that told me it wasn't a tire. When the engine is "pulling" the vibration is bad.

    vibration after 5" lift

    I have a 2001 2500 and just installed a 5" lift and 37" Toyos. At slower speeds everything seems to be ok, but when I get up to about 65mph and over, I get a bad vibration which reverberates through the cab. I'm assuming this is a driveshaft issue with the change in driveline angles? Thoughts? Cure?

    Spacers w a 5" lift?

    I have a '99 2500. Running 17" aluminum wheels off of a 03-12 2500 and 37x12.5's. Also running a 5" lift. I'd like to have a little wider stance in the rear. Would there be an issue with running wheel spacers in the rear to add a little width?

    Aftermarket seats

    The other issues with these seats is that they are terribly uncomfortable. I can honestly say that the seats in this '99 2500 are the most uncomfortable seats of any vehicles I've ever owned. I love the truck, body style, Cummins, etc, but these seats are awful.

    Aftermarket seats

    I'm looking to do something with the seats in my truck. Have a '99 2500 ext cab. Of course it has the rainbow interior and the foam in the driver's seat has just collapsed. I had thought about getting another cushion for that seat and just having an upholstery shop recover the seats with a...

    fog light switch/ button question

    Can you explain how to do this? I've seen a post that said "Remove the relay in the PDB, then run a jumper from #3-#5." The problem is, I have no clue where any of this is on the truck. Can someone post up a few pics?

    turbo question

    Was towing my camper yesterday w my '99 running up a hill about 65mph. It's a big camper so the truck was pulling pretty hard.....all of a sudden I heard a loud sound almost like a tire had blown out. I knew it wasn't that because the truck was driving the same. I pulled over and the rubber...

    Code P0336 Crankshaft position sensor??

    I have a 1999 Cummins 24 Valve. Check engine light came on this morning so I read the code with the Edge programmer. Showed P0336 Crankshaft position sensor. Anyone have experience with this? Is this just simply a bad sensor or is this a sign of a more serious problem? Thanks in advance for the...

    How do you determine towing capacity?

    I thought towing capacity had something to do with Gross Vehicle Weight Rating?? or something like that. Isn't this the max weight the truck can handle including truck and trailer? It seems like you could max the payload (hauling capacity) of the truck and still have available towing capacity.

    How do you determine towing capacity?

    I have a '99 2500 Cummins, auto. I think it has 4.10 gears??? I'm not sure, but it's the lower speed gears. How do I find the towing capacity of this particular truck?

    Sound insulating info

    I was thinking I saw a post here once where someone used some type insulation product they bought at Home Depot to help sound-proof their cab, but for the life of me I can't find it. Does anyone recall what this product was?
