    Slipper box should have a plate welded for the leaf to slip on. You could drill hole for bolt and put pieces of copper pipe for bushing

    Do you know how to turn of your seat belt chime with power stroke tech talk w/ARod from TH-cam posted a year ago. Is a manual way with button’s and E brake combinations sitting in the driver seat I believe

    On my 5th gen Cummins I was still able to do the seatbelt buckle/unbuckle procedure to turn the seatbelt chime off. No dinging whatsoever when my door is open. I would lose my mind with those alarms.

    If you have the selector noob between 2nd and 4wd you pull the knob out to get 2wd posi. That’s what’s on my 2013 f250. Agree on door chime.

    I was renting my trailer outr after I wnt back into the medical field and got a call one day that this happened on mine. It got fixed and i decided I was not renting it out anymore so when I got it back i went over it and low and behold you could see where they over loaded the trailer and bottomed the wheels out on one side by the endentions it made when it hit.

    Get the FORSCAN cable to plug into your OBD2 port and download the software on a laptop. You can turn off the door and seatbelt warning as well as a lot of other things such as auto lock and make your fog lights stay on with the high beams.

      Bullshit. I worked with what I had. An old truck that always needed work. I only messed with what broke and something was always breaking. Had my credit been better I could've bought a newer truck but I don't. I did my best running my business with only cash and I was very successful at it. I've grossed almost $120k this year with 3 full months to go. Paid off $30k in debt and expenses. Money was never the problem, credit was. I've got $20k sitting in my crypto wallet right now and over $11k owed to me right now from customers plus our savings. I'm doing a lot better than I show in videos and when my credit gets better you'll see the results of that.
