Hello all

I just wanted say hello and thank everybody that post up info on the board. I've read alot of info on here before I made my decision on the truck I purchased. Things I've learned.....

1. I held out and found a 07 5.9L so I don't have to worry about any DPF issues and is already mod friendly.

2. I just had my michelin 265/70/17's replaced no questions asked with some BFG 285/70/17's due to the sidewall cracking issue brought up on here. Mine were cracked right off the showroom floor.

She's my first diesel so it'll probably be a while before I'm smart enough to contribute, so I'll try not to make an a$$ out of my self in the mean time.

Great forum guys, and thanks again

Brian

Welcome to the DTR!

Fill out your sig so we know what you have all the time... Go to user CP, then edit signature.

Also, just so the mods don't get you, we cannot use symbols in the place of curse words. Not a big deal, just trying to cover for ya.

Enjoy the info... it's a great site!

What do you want to know? That's the good thing about this site, something that I like a lot about it... Ask and you shall receive!

Just put what year, (03-04) model, (2500-3500) 2wd or 4X4, quad cab, regular cab, SRW (single rear wheel) DRW (dual rear wheel) and anything else you want to add... auto, stick, lone star package, SLT, Ect. Then list your mods... Bully Dog, Edge, Tires, lift, ect.

It is more for us when you ask a question, we can look at your sig and see what you have so we can make an educated guess about what is going on, and a little for you, so you can show off what you got. Pics in your gallery help, too.

HTH (hope this helps) LMK if you have any more questions.
