    Early 04 pre injection event and SSR parameters

    Can a smarty ssr disable it? It's listed in the manual but I don't see the option when going through the parameters. Is it worth it to disable it? I'm just going for mpg and a slight bump in torque since this truck stays attached to a trailer. Right now I have timings at the smarty default...

    Quick and dirty tow rig

    First post in a very very long time. I have an early 04 truck, mild built trans, single disc, billet input, shifts firm. It goes otr grossing 15,000-25,000. It does good, but could really use a little power bump to keep it going up hills without downshifting and screaming at 3k rpm all the...

    Alternatives for mp1626

    Got an 08 here with an mp1626. original tcase shift fork broke and killed it. New one has 1000 miles/4 days on it and appears to have done the same thing today. Haven't pulled it yet to confirm, but it's grinding real nice when you shift into gear and won't actually move. Are there any other...

    Rear disc conversion with fixed calipers

    Does anyone make one? I currently have the generic chevy swap with the floating calipers, and can't keep them from shearing the fricken caliper pins every few thousand miles.

    07 5.9 grid heater chiming

    Truck bought used from a dealer. It has a silver bullet, possibly a tune (sticker marks on dash, and it will boost to 45psi). Truck runs great, smokeless, low egt's and all the power I would think it should have until it randomly chimes 10 times and grid heater light comes on. Then it...

    Oil pressure intermittent

    I know the stock sending units are junk and are pretty much just telling you that you have oil pressure. Starting today, my oil pressure drops to ZERO at idle, but if I bump the throttle and give it another 50rpm, the oil pressure jumps back up to the middle like it usually sits at. So, does...

    4l60e won't work in "d"

    Family member of a friend, trying to help him out. 96 1500 2wd. "Said reverse and low 1 and 2 works but drive doesn't work when it's warmed up." Any ideas what the problem is, and will a standard rebuild kit fix it?

    FS: Cheetah shifter with floor mount

    It is used. Mount is for 2nd gen dodge. It isn't the sexiest thing out there, but it mounts to floor and to a bolt under the middle seat, keeps the shifter pretty solid. Comes with cable to 47re. I will get pics up after work. 250 shipped obo. Thanks.

    Flex Coupling questions

    Never messed with them before. Should I get one with the inner braid, or without? Is it just for strength, or a sort of leak protection? http://www.summitracing.com/parts/aph-8826 http://www.summitracing.com/parts/aph-8826ib

    Need D70/60 3.54 gears/Trade for 4.10s

    Looking for used in good shape stock 3.55 gears for a 98 Dodge. D70U and D60. I have 4.10's in it now, and would trade straight across with shipping if necessary. If you want to trade, I'd have to get the 3.55's before I could send the 4.10s, as I can only afford a few days down time. Hate...

    48re front band adjustment went in very far. Bad sign?

    Truck has 130k or so on it, never been adjusted as far as owner knows. Trans was just shifting like crap if it wanted to shift at all. I broke the jam nut loose, and the adjuster went it so far that it actually recedes into the jam nut a little, about 1 thread is showing INSIDE the jam nut...

    Small engine tune/timing

    Disclamier: Not sure what section this thread should go in. 4cyl 1.9 vw ALH block 10mm pump with 12mm dodge guts 5x.022 injectors gt35r Finally got the car back together. Car moves along decent, but falls on it's face over 3k rpm. Was hoping it was timing, and adding timing across the map...

    Injectors too big?

    1.9 vw tdi vp37 pump with 12mm dodge pump guts 5x.022 "single stage" injectors gt35r Potential problem: Won't build much boost. Mostly cleans up at higher rpms (4k+), and doesn't really make any power. No boost leaks that I can find. My question: Is it possible the injectors can be too...

    Need any info you have on haldex controllers

    R32 if it matters. TDI ecu and probably will not have ABS, so has to be fully standalone. I can't find much on anything but the HPA controller, but I can't tell if it's a piggyback system or full standalone. Any input is appreciated, thanks.

    12 valve part numbers

    Not sure if there's already a thread, but I'd like to start one with all the part numbers for easy future reference. For now I specifically need 12 valve head gasket, manifold gaskets, turbo drain gasket, flexible oil drains, t3, t4 and t6 gaskets. Thanks in advance.

    Bad Throwout bearing? VW 6spd

    So after spending an hour trying to get the 6spd mounted, and getting pissed because the trans wouldn't slip in the last 1/4", we discovered the crank would turn without turning the trans over. Finally got the trans flush and bolted up, turned crank over in gear, and the diff barely turns over...

    OKC to Decorah and back

    Leaving monday, I'll have a hatchback focus, so keep that in mind. On the way back I'll have the truck and an empty goose. I can stop in mo, ks, or possibly illinois. I absolutely have to be back by saturday night, so no long detours. Let me know.

    Need good 4bt or Jeep 4.0

    My burial ground property claimed another soul today. Have a friend looking for either a good 4bt, pump doesn't matter, or a good running Jeep 4.0 long or short block if his head is re-usable. Possibly looking at chevy ls based block/accessories/ecu/harness if you aren't asking more than fair...
