TX DTR #8 - September thread
EFI Live is unveiling their new BBR core for 2010+ at SEMA... just accurate table reading to start, so they can validate the system - then they'll progressively advance it to individual tuning capability.
Sounds like EFI Live: Cummins is deconstructing the bootloader software for end-user adjustability before generating backwards compatible units for the 5.9L CR, for instance.

So I thought bashing mailboxes was a country thing...I guess not. Dang kids (makes me feel old) came through last night and knocked around a few, including ours.
Worst part was, I was awake and in our front room when it happened. Oh well, just a little minor body work on ours and it's back in business. Then had to go patch up a neighbor's mailbox that is out of town.
These kids could learn a thing or two from the country kids though. Back home, when they would hit mailboxes, there wasn't much left. These were just little dents. Someone is going to need to practice up before baseball season starts to put some power into their swing. LOL

Punks used to smash our mailboxes when we were growing up in CT; the neighbor got us to roll a few boulders in front of his and within a week someone left their bumper in the gutter. 
Mom wouldn't let us protect ours like that for liability reasons, so I made one of those large USPS-style mailboxes out of 1/4" plate at the shop, and painted a big flourescent yellow Nuclear Hazard symbol on both sides.
We had more fun with that thing over the years, listening to the Bam-BAM! of baseball bats ricocheting back onto the perps' vehicles - but mostly I liked to hear the muffled BOOM! of M80s & blockbusters trying to escape from it!
Back in the '90's when the road was widened, my brother had to move the mailbox while he was on leave between cruises - think he's still aggravated at me...
the town's snow plows bounced off the post 'cause of the foundation I welded it to.

Justin can't seem to catch a break? plumbing, mailboxes....
Sounds like Mike has been a fabricator all his years..
I can remember a mailbox in my neighborhood that was a target on a monthly basis it seemed like... And this time of year many of pumpkins get hurled out of the vehicle into the boxes. or pranks with the bags of leaves.

Got an 'ABS' and a 'Brake' Dash warning light yesterday. All the posts say 90% of the time, it's the rear axle speed sensor acting up!
Anyone pulled this sensor, off the top of the rear axle, before?
My question is this......
Mine is coated pretty much completely with axle "mud".
Wonder if I can just clean it up, or if it needs replacing??
Also, anyone understand how this sensor works and what all it does? FSM implys if affects 3-4 systems but does not go into details.
Also read somewhere, the ABS/Brake light won't clear w/o a DRB III scanner??

I was reminiscing about my old truck and realized I can now never go back to something non CTD powered...
old 95 dodge 1/2 ton 360 4x4. RC,LB. whopping 181HP, 290TQ.
and my brake, ABS lights on that truck were on from day one that I had her. It made braking very predictable. all 4 locked up. (a 3000GT can vouch for that )
