I have an older SE12000 Mile Marker winch that hasn't been willing to power reverse in a long time. It will sometimes spin just a fraction of a turn almost as if it binds and wont spin. Usually this gives me enough slack to release the clutch and free spin, but not always and with the clutch...

Ok so my 07.5 Mega 6.7/68RFE gave me some problems a few months ago. Go to start it sometimes and it would act like it had dead batteries even thought they were good. Sometimes it would start run for a few seconds and die, and sometimes it would just spin. I ended up pulling the cables off...

Going to pick up a replacement bed and tailgate for my 07 this Saturday. I was thinking of spraying the inner fenders with some kind of coating to hopefully keep moisture out and prevent them from rusting above the rear wheels like my last bed did. I don't remember if we have any paint and...

Any of you guys have a reputable company you order trailer parts from online regularly? Our local Wil-Ro trailer and flatbed company got bought out and quit selling parts to the public. I'm wanting to get some replacement leaf springs for my 25' gooseneck.

Anyone installed a OE style TPS on a truck they converted to auto? Just had my 47RE completely gone through went back to a normal VB and have an Anteater controller, but my dumbazz didn't think about needing a TPS for the Anteater to hook up to. Looks like its a bolt on deal after searching...

Looking for a gently used billet output for my 47RE I'm about to pull out for an unscheduled refresh. Need to upgrade while its out just looking to see if I can save a few bucks.

Ok I have a Hurst quarter stick pistol grip style shifter. It has the clip retention on both transmission and shifter ends. I've purchased a pan-less cable mount from Logan Yelton, but need a threaded cable mount at the transmission end. I cannot find one that has the clip retainer on the...

People tried to warn me when I did my auto swap 2 years ago, but I had a newborn at home and was trying to do it as cheaply as possible so I used a heat exchanger. Went to do a service and add my new deep pan this year to get ready for race season and found this. So now I have a Derale 15960...

Bought a 20+4 single tandem last night currently has ST225/90D16's on it and 2 of them need to be replaced. Looking for recommendations on good radial 12 or 14 ply tires I plan to regularly travel 2-5 hrs one way from home with this trailer and my 97 on it going to races.

I realize this isn't necessarily diesel related, but its on a diesel powered car and I can't get any help on the TDI forum or retrofit forums. Ok I have had a set of retrofits in my car for almost a year now, and they work great on the low beam but I cannot get the high beams to work...
