ya ya ya..... i bought both valve cover gaskets today. i did one, the passenger side, and it seemed to idle a little bit better, found a boost leak, corrected that and it had way more power in the upper rpm's as it pulls like a raped ape from 2500-3k. i'm gonna let her cool down and after supper maybe change out the driver side for S&G's.... i did notice a new injector on the passenger side.


oh ya i freikin hate working on a 4x4 now since i am so use to my lowered 2wd dodge......

 

BTW that is my white head looking over the top of it and my 1 ton is parked directly on the other side of it hiding.....

 

Cool looks great

 

Letting the air out of the front tires makes it a little easier to work on 4x4's. As long as you have an air compressor.

 

ya an air compressor is on the got to get list..... have a toolbox full of air tools, 3 impacts, 2 die grinders, air drill, air hammer, 2 air ratchets, and no source of hot air except for my wife....... i was able to park it's nose right up to my deck so that gave me a foot or so lift to work on it.....

 

you need one of these so you can reach your engine compartment easier




Its like $40 from summit

 

Stupid Red X's here try this

 

i wish i had one of those things, i ended up sitting in my engine bay

 

yup sat in the bay while doing the driver side gasket. a friend of mine has one of those step things and it is a life saver.....

anywho back on topic

valve cover gaskets are new, under valve cover gasket harness tested out ok on an ohm meter. skip is still there..... it clears out and runs great at anything over 2500......

i have a friend that eats sleeps and breathes 7.3's so i might take it to him next week. he has a perty high HP 7.3 that is sitting on like 40's or something like that..... he's suspose to be puttin it on some 52' or some crazyness like that and still drive it on the street.......

oh ya and blowing an intercooler boot off almost makes my wife crap herself....

 

oh ya and i can't for the life of me figure out how to work this fancy 4X4 on this truck..... can someone give me a quick how to cause i can't get it to even go into 4low....
