Were there a bunch of posts cut out of here? Got real confusing after he mentioned getting back on the road. Seems like two or maybe three posts missing? Ferro, isn't this wrecker bed going to you? You live in S.C. don't you? Last time I checked you had to go through South Carolina from Tenn. to...
The 6.5 lines are made for the 6.5 heads and they are a different injector angle. If you have the 6.2 heads on there then you will have to use the 6.2 lines so they line up. Do NOT bend any of the lines! You will get a knock that you would swear is a rod knock. It changes the timing on that...
The last couple of years at Aberdeen were pretty disappointing. This coming year will be the first time in 25 years that I am not going. It's a great gig for the party crowd, just not my style.
Which end is getting low? Front or rear? Front getting low would indicate need for pads rear getting low would indicate a leak. Rotted lines are very common on these.
You need the 24 volt Main battery wire on the starter terminal and the smaller terminal will be a 24 volt starter wire. Basically if you jump from the large terminal to the small one on the starter it will crank.

Adam, something to think about before hauling that weight too much further on that trailer is alignment. I have seen many times where the spring bushings wear and the axles will get out of alignment with each other. That will build up heat very fast in the tires with a load like that. I would...
There are certain Heim joints that are legal for steering, the ones pictured are not the ones but really it does change in every state. You have a completely re-engineered suspension and as such in most state it will have to go to a special inspection unit where automotive engineers will inspect...
If you want to go with digital then Google Glow-Shift. They are the ones I have in my Dodge. I don't have digital but I know they carry them. 24 volt I don't know. Glad I could be of assistance, let me know if it took care of those problems.

On edit, I just looked at Glow shift's site and...
That is a nice looking bumper but my main question is why make it so heavy? It is only as strong as the next weakest link which is the frame. The original bumper would absorb some of the impact before transferring the rest to the frame. In your case ANY impact at all will go directly to the...
Why all the secrecy? Does he really expect someone to call the State police and ask them questions about the truck?! Why is the owner not posting if he is a member? I have done a few investigations in my time and I know what this looks like, I will make no assumptions here but look at it from...
I am about to hit the sack so I will give the short version and pm you my phone number and you can call me tomorrow if you have a question.
You would set you meter for 24 volts as usual, put one lead on the positive battery post and the other lead on the positive terminal. What you are looking...
What you really need to do is not just a voltage test but a voltage drop test. That needs to be done on each battery and each alternator and all of the major grounds. That will tell you if and where you are loosing power.
In that case they may very well have the stuff to test the injectors BUT, I would still get a second opinion from a local shop. Remember, this is the same vehicle as the civvie Chevy trucks with the 6.2 diesel. There are millions of them out there and lots of shops have worked on them and know...
