Hope that he gets the Tailgate Camera & Electric Tailgate Lights, etc.
Then returns & lets us know how everything is going
Camera is all hooked up and working as it should. I bought a new barrel for the tailgate lock and used the tumblers that were in the old one to rekey it to match my key, but ended up only being able to use 4 or 5 of the 7(I think, I can't remember) spaces. The only recall that hasn't been completed on the truck is the tailgate latch one that fixes the tailgate falling open while driving thing, which happened to me once, and now I can't get it open at all with the handle. I'll eventually get it into a dealer to fix, and then I found that the actuator to enable remote lock/unlock is $80~, and plugs into the jumper off the camera harness, so that'll be happening once I get everything else worked out.
Power Stop Z36 pads and rotors installed maybe 2 months ago, and I flushed the lines with dot 4 fluid.
I bought a set of Powergo Motorsport shorty headers months ago and had them ceramic coated at PolyDyn here in Houston. I finally got them installed a few weeks ago. When I bought the truck the heat shields on the stock manifolds were all bolted down tight, but by the time I finally got around to having the headers put on, two of the studs had snapped off flush with the head. I think I actually lost a bit of power based solely on butt dyno readings, but I may tune for them later. I also tossed the clutch fan for the Dorman v6 fan a few months ago which I'm happy with, but I need to tune for it too. I'm running a 192* tstat, but before I get it tuned for the fan, I'm going to go down to a 180*. I also have everything to change the trans fluid and pan, and I have the heater bypass thing that I bought from a member here that will get installed eventually.
I have an OBDLink MX+, paid for the AlfaOBD app, paid for the Chrysler PinPuller, bought a used amazon fire tablet, did all the crap to get the play store on it, only for it to not want to connect the the obdlink, so now I'm thinking of switching from iphone to an android so that I don't have to buy another device just for the truck, or maybe I'll email the alfaobd people for the discount code for the PC version so I can try with my laptop. I need to pair the new keys I also bought months ago.
New shocks are next on the to do list. I was going to wait until I'd set aside the cash for a lift/level kit, but I just can't. They're too far gone. I still want the lift, so I may just throw the cheapest shocks I can find on it, as anything would be better than how it is now.
Let's see, what else? I've changed all 16 spark plugs (didn't know about that until after I bought it!), the PCV valve, running the deeper filter element for the ecodiesel, I did the mod where the back seat folds down, but only on the drivers side. Haven't put anything behind it yet, but at least I know I can. It didn't come with floor mats, but I found a clean set for $100 on craigslist. Did the H9(?) mod, which made me all but forget about worrying about LED or HID headlights. Still want LED tails tho.
I think that's it for now.
