I've been trying to find a list of ALL the factory available options for the '03 HO/6spd. Any one have a source ? I see in the brochure it has a blip about a exhaust brake being available - I'm highly interested in that option, and makes me wonder what else is available. Any one got a price adder for the jake brake ?<br><br>Rob<br>

Mr. K<br><br>Go to this site and &quot;build&quot; one, it will show you all the options<br><br>http://www.kbb.com/kb/ki.dll/ke.kb.tp?kbb&amp;&amp;1&amp;ncc1&amp;&amp;&amp;&amp;bc<br><br>And check this thread out<br><br>http://www.dodge-diesel.org/yabbse/index.php?board=17;action=display;threadid=6433<br><br>Hope this helps, welcome aboard<br><br>Hunter

thanks for links hunter. Is this a factory installed option, or a dealer only installed option ???? The 'build your own' sheet didn't have the option code for the jake brake.

Jake will be a dealer installed option and not due out until at least January is what the boys are saying.<br><br>Fiver, jump in here and help this man!<br><br>I am not interested in the Jake so have not really resourced it like I would if I wanted one, but many of the guys here want it and can help<br><br>Come on guys, help this guy out!<br><br>Hunter

KTM,<br><br>The new dealer accessories catalog just came out. Check with your dealer again - - he should have it, or getting it very shortly. My dealer got his today. Can't wait to get home and browse. Most other places have nothing on the 2003 specific yet - - only things that might carry over from the 2002 1500. The Jake brake is dealer installed - - $799 with a $500 rebate if you can qualify. Check with your dealer on qualification requirements - - it is pretty broad.

Great, thanks for the info. I'll have to check a dealer for the accessories catalog. I'm planning on ordering a truck after the first of the year sometime - So I'm trying to gather up all the info on the exact options I want.<br><br>One other question.....When I test drove one the other day the first thing I noticed was they added a grab handle on the drivers side pillar. Anyone know if there is gauge solution for this pillar? Does anyone have a pod housing for this ? I want to add a pyro and boost gauge right away to keep an eye on the H.O. :)<br><br>

Don't wait too long to order the new baby. My understanding is the EGR is govt' mandated and soon after the new year?<br><br>Hunter

MisterKTM,<br><br>Sierra Phil posted a pic of an installation of his two gauges beside his trailer brake controller. Very professional looking job. A little out of the way to see it, but it is not like you are watching these gauges like a speedo. He put the controller in the middle of the cubby by the ash tray and one gauge on each side. I may look at doing the same. <br><br>Bob

Fiver, I'm not the Phil who posted pic of gauges, its the other Phil. Don't want to take credit for a nice job where credit is not due. I plan on mounting exhaust Temp and Boost Gauges above dash next to pillar eventually. :) First to get sprayed-in bedliner. [laugh]

Oh goody, thanks a lot. Now I am only half senile. [yuk] Got the Phil correct, just not the right one.

So, where was that post of his gauges? Great looking installation. I get to tackle that in a week. Controller and gauges. Hey, I just might get a spray in bed liner too. [laugh]
