Do you need to replace the transfer case bolt when you change the fluid? I read online that it needs to be replaced or it could snap off. 

No need. Just don’t get too macho when you go to retighten. Snug + 1/4 is my rule LOL

I installed this thingy on the top of my 2017 6.2L. Not really sure what it does, but my truck goes really fast now.

I was confused because it looked like 3 sets of pads. Not sure what the white boxes on the left are. Lol. I had a set of the wilwoods on my 1500. I wish the were compatible with the 2500.

Looks good.

 

If they are anything like the ones in CA, it's a simple "Fix-It Ticket."  In CA, the front windows can only be up to a certain percentage, think it's around 35%.  AND, only the top 4" of the windshield can be tinted, but I have seen a lot of vehicles driving around with tint down to the bottom of the mirror mount (which is how I'd like to do mine).  I may darken up my back one a little more, not sure at this point.

It's the same here. But the only people I know that have been given a hard time over it are doing stupid things with stupid people in stupid places so I think I should be fine. Might be an issue getting a State Inspection at the dealer. If it is I will just go to a different garage for that. They are everywhere.

My dad has the windshield strip down to the mirror mount and no problems yet. The strip is only 18% to match all other windows. It gives it a much better look than having all the windows with different tint levels.

I have my windows done the same but I also have my entire windshield from top to bottom done at 35% and never have had any problems with law enforcement.

Don’t forget a fluid pump. There really is no clearance for a funnel.

      MPG at 600 miles

      By Chuck FB · Posted

      There are probably a few threads talking about fuel mileage but this one seemed to fit the stats I have seen based on my typical local driven route but with different outcomes based on different seasons/temperatures. I have a few hundred pounds of items that consistently ride on the truck at all times such as a bak flip cover, rubber bed mat, tools and extra fuel so I would be something over 8100 lb without me in the truck. All these examples are based on a 100 mile round trip to a town plus running around town so maybe 110 to 120 miles in total for a trip. Using regular fuel and I assume it always has some ethanol in it but don't know the percentage they blend in. Also speed wise I am going at 62 mph and non aggressive driving although less speed yet if its crappy winter condition roads. I am going by an initial reset of the computer generated fuel use numbers averaged over a couple of thousand miles or so for each weather/season so they may be more optimistic then actual hand calculated numbers. Basically this is painting a picture of doing the same drive but seasonal conditions and temperature being the major variable to the end result. Oh and although I am in Alberta Canada, I am converting it to miles per US gallon so there is no confusion.    So winter time it gets cold here, no real surprise there and the roads can be clear at times but also often have packed rough snow or are are driving through loose snow ( they do a poor job of plowing the highways ) and yes this includes the extra idle engine time due to trying not to freeze ones butt off. 12.7 mpg is what I was getting during the winter months on average.    Then during the spring when it was around the freezing point and the highways are clear of snow, I was getting around 14.25 mpg.   Summer time, I have been getting around 15.15 on average but certainly some of the trips showed quite a bit better fuel mileage, so much depended on how much or little I had driven around town and number of engine restarts after sitting for a while at each location. But stating a best fuel mileage trip to town pretending that is what the truck gets on average is fooling ones self for sure !.      As I said in a different post, I had driven a 645 mile trip over a couple of days stint to a different destination then these other daily to town examples above, and was done during the summer with nice weather and not bucking a head wind, also keeping at 62 mph and its a rolling landscape type highway drive ( this isn't southern Alberta or Saskatchewan flat lands ) Hand calculated fuel mileage in this case though and it came out to 17.65
