anyone have the notorious oil filter housing crack? looking to see if it's true and what causes it? over torquing when doing filter changes? I always torque mine down when doing oil changes but wondering if I should have a shop near me swap it to the aluminum housing and if so what brand...

do you have a procedure for flushing coolant system? I will need to do mine soon :)

you are most certainly correct but most guys wont want to mix themselves, 20$ is not bad considering it is OEM quality.

i have K&N on mine, it sounds great! just have to be prepared to chuck out some money for it.

just get amsoil, comes with friction modifier already in it and better than OEM.

you might need to buy a split barb for the hose, but your better off draining oil from pan, it is easy on our trucks.

do yourself a favor and save up for a ready lift or better brand. suspension is not worth cheap out a grand or so when we pay 40k over for our trucks. I have a 3.5" 2.1 ready lift on mine and she runs like she was stock. link is below, falcon shocks...

make sure you have the larger cab, thye dont sell one for the smaller cab. i made the mistake and bought it and had to return it as exhuast connection don't line up without modifiying part of exhaust that the borla exhaust does not contian (which i didnt want to do)

3.5' ready lfit, 35 mickies, 13 mpg :( v6 pentasar but she sits real nice.

go with pre-mixed so you dont need to dilute and go on amazon, its cheaper. dont buy from dealership but you can get the part # from them. below is the link...

just up maintenance intervals, oil, diffs, tranny flushes, plugs, cooolant changes etc. and you wil be happy!

i did 2.1 ready lfit 3.5' lift kit (worth the extra money for better lift even if you dont offroad) gas mileage dropped from 19 to 14 :( but hey the smiles per gallon went up ! 35" mickey thompson with fuel rims.

oil changes every 5k (3k if you tow or use 4x4) plugs every 75-100k. coolant flushed every 100k and you should be set for awhile.

30 psi is normal, might drop below to 29,28 towards end of your oil intervals as filter get clogged.

can you send links to plugs and intake gaskets?

thx jamie but there is no part to knockout, looks like i will be making a mess!
