Welcome from NE Ohio!

Go through the maintenance section of your owners manual and do it all haha! Front and rear diff, oil change, fuel filter, !!!!!LIFT PUMP!!!! Since your new, find out what kind of lift pump is on that truck! If it fails, or gets weak, youll be footing the bill for a 2k$ main Injector Pump!!! I just had a close call! Oh and get some gauges!


Oh yeah, and lastly, join Ohio Bombers!
