Awd Not Working Full Time ?
toolhaulerSS replied to toolhaulerSS's topic in AWD, Differential, & Transmission Tech
Well I got the truck over to the same guy I had 2 trans done with and he said the Viscous Coupler is diffently shot. he called me on the phone and give me a run down basically it is the worst transfore case he has seen that is still drivable. new viscous coupler $800 and $600 for labor and more for new gears, seals and bearings puts me close to $1800. a tad more then I wanted to spend 3 day before xmas but it's just money. who needs food. I and starting to look for a new truck now as it's allways something with the ss. I just replaced one of the o2s and got more codes for the other ones, got to love it. but I'm still a year or two away from it so I want it to work right. -
Awd Not Working Full Time ?
toolhaulerSS replied to toolhaulerSS's topic in AWD, Differential, & Transmission Tech
thanks for that info I will get this checked out. -
so we got 12" snow yesterday and I was trying to get out of the driveway. 350' long and I have never got stuck in it before so I don't shove or plow. changed my mind and was going to get a snow blower but I got stuck 3 times in the driveway? I just figured I spining on ice at first but when I had to get out I saw that the front wheels didn't spin? put down some ice salt and move another 40' got stuck agian? then I was get mad why wasn't my awd kick in? I put some miles on after that I it seem like it worked most of the time but some times I would fish tail out coming out of a snowy coner? I have no dash waring lights, should I see if the are any codes with a obd I just changed the diff fluid in the fall but didn't do the transfer case, I have trutrac fliud in now about 2 years/ 40,000 miles. I am going to change this soon. Is there any other ideas out there I could sure use them thanks brad

Pros And Cons Of Adding A Tbtc For Dd
toolhaulerSS replied to silverss05's topic in AWD, Differential, & Transmission Tech
I have had good luck with my tbtc. I had the trans rebuilt and add it on then I didn't get a tune for it for about a year no probems. My temps are in the good range so I didn't need to add a cooler. BUT if I was to do it again I would get a cricle D. -
Awd Rear Wheel Spin
toolhaulerSS replied to danny68ss's topic in AWD, Differential, & Transmission Tech
That has happen to me a couple of times. Just figure it was wet out and the front could not keep up. It would grab after a few seconds or I let off. -
I have always ran 91-93 octane and the truck runs great. I accidntially put in 87 two weeks ago and could totally tell the difference. Had less throttle responce and felt slower over all. I seemed to happen pretty quickly. I didn't notice and pinging or knocking but my stereo is loud. I filled up with 92 after I ran it though and with in a couple day it came back to life. When I had the 87 in it I was at a light with a 2500 ram hemi and didn't want to race him but he wanted to run it was a short block and I let him go and then I got on it and all could do was get even with him and stay there till we had to let off at 60-65 mph. I have walked away from hemis before, but not this time. Wish I had that run back with 92 and my tune doing it's thing.

I have had mine for 3 years and it has been great. I got the paging fob and it has some good range.

Whissle, In The Snow... Trailer Queen? Not!
toolhaulerSS replied to fast4popper's topic in Video & Photography
now thats some snow. -
My younger brother worked at one of these oil change places. they are trained to up sell parts and service and if 50 % of the people belive they need it good for them. I't worked good for me I could go in at certain times and get all sorts of things done for free. they didn't care, it was 3 or 4 high school kids working there , and they were high all the time. I do most all my own now.
