    Yeah, the right rear Michelin's are backwards. Came that way. Actually had Two goodyears on the front and the rears were all Michelins. Some running one way and some another. Pretty common on these trucks from what I have seen. For some reason all four of the rear tires had severe flat spots on...

    This is a good point. Perhaps they are just trying to suggest that the gage needs to read "something" or else it may not be the right one for the job. i.e., a reading of some kind demonstrates that the gage is working and has the right resistance. If it wasn't moving at all maybe that could...

    Hmmm. Interesting. Could be a valid point. Could it be possible that another component of the truck requires a certain amount of vaccuum in the intake for whatever reason? And by adding this other filter I now have reduced the pull of air through the OEM pipe. I will have to see what else...

    This one's for you bud! It's the only other video I have right now until the weather warms up and I can get the old guy out and make a better one with something other than my I phone! :)

    The OEM filter is still operational and also new. The additional blue one just helps with the restriction issues. I am not crazy about the blue one either but it was what I could find at the time. Now I am thinking I might try and find one of the old 5 ton fender mount air boxes and plumb...

    Thanks for the advice! It makes sense. As soon as it gets above freezing again outside I will get a pyro gage on there and see if I can't fab up something to get outside air to the filter. Thanks again.

    Well, you said "Good or bad"... Personally, I just don’t get it… not on a Dodge pickup, military truck, or any other truck (or even on a car). The severely oversized exhaust stack is a phenomenon whose appeal eludes me (said in my best Dr. Sheldon Cooper voice).:D Maybe I am just suffering...

    Hi Guys, Just wanted to share some pics of a couple new mods I recently did. First I built a new air intake snorkle. Mostly just for fun. I also added a "Y" fitting just before my turbo and added an AFE cone type air filter to my air intake system. I did this because no matter what I checked or...
