    Do you ever start to get out of your truck without turning it off?

    I do the same thing, but I utilize the auto parking brake feature. If you wait a few seconds before releasing the brake after putting the truck into park, you can feel the parking brake catch the truck. There's no movement when I release the brake. We all have our routines though so I get the...

    Differential or Transmission Clunk

    Those are some small trucks. Sent from my SM-N986U using Tapatalk

    DRL turn signals.... can they be always on?

    I did the same, but I also shut off the factory DRLs (halo lights) so it's just the turns signals on as the DRLs. It's a nice look for sure. Sent from my SM-N986U using Tapatalk

    Feel trans engage and disengage

    It's really not difficult at all. If you're somewhat capable of working on your truck, you can do it. It's literally just taking out the four bolts on the rear flange and sliding the driveshaft out, putting grease in the yoke and replacing everything. Sent from my SM-N986U using Tapatalk

    That could very well be the case. Sent from my SM-N986U using Tapatalk

    Feel trans engage and disengage

    It's worth a try. Though there is some weirdness, for lack of a better word, around 4th gear that I get as well where it's almost clunky. I think that's just a trait of the 8HP75. Sent from my SM-N986U using Tapatalk

    Feel trans engage and disengage

    A few of us have greased the slip yoke in the rear driveshaft with good results. I've done it multiple times now, I need to give it one more greasing but it makes a big difference right away. Sent from my SM-N986U using Tapatalk

    Cold air intakes yes or no

    I agree completely. Mine is only faster with those installed because I'm tuned. I did enjoy the sound the Vararam gave me when I first installed it though, before all of the other mods. Sent from my SM-N986U using Tapatalk

    Cold air intakes yes or no

    I can appreciate that. At times I miss the quiet ride myself. Sent from my SM-N986U using Tapatalk

    Cold air intakes yes or no

    Lol easy there bruh. You literally said you proved it, and provided no evidence other than you feeling something. There's really no way to tell unless you do back to back times at the same operating temperature. My Vararam "feels" a little slower but runs identical times to the stock setup 0-60...

    Cold air intakes yes or no

    That's not really proving. That's just your mind telling you that the truck doesn't sound like it's working that hard (because of the lack of noise) and it's moving just as quick. Unless you can prove the truck is slower with numbers, the difference is negligible. That is unless the exhaust was...

    Tuners for the hemi

    To be fair, if you're that far into modifications you've accepted the fact that your warranty is out the window anyway. Sent from my SM-N986U using Tapatalk

    Tuners for the hemi

    A tune will definitely get you in the 5s. My best 0-60 has been 5.2 so far. Heat index has been over 100 here and I can still hit 5.6-5.8. my stock best time was 6.1, but usually around 6.5-6.6. Sent from my SM-N986U using Tapatalk

    Cold air intakes yes or no

    Not likely. The stock intake does a well enough job. I have a Vararam now and am debating on selling it. I just put the stock tube back on and feel that it drives a bit better with the stock setup. It could just be my truck though. Sent from my SM-N986U using Tapatalk

    Anyone done a Gen 3 ecodiesel transmission fluid change?

    The fill plug is on the passenger side, it's an 8mm hex. Sent from my SM-N986U using Tapatalk

    Anyone done a Gen 3 ecodiesel transmission fluid change?

    You'll need a pump to get the fluid into the transmission fill hole. I can't imagine it's different as it's the same 8HP75 transmission as the hemi. Sent from my SM-N986U using Tapatalk
