    2002 7.3 Powerstroke in Excursion - coolant recommendation?

    Rotella ELC or the Valvoline ELC is all we use in any diesel here. If you have a Rush Truck Center near you its normally cheaper than other places.

    $200 transfer tax removed for short barreled rifles and shotguns

    This is the only can that I have held off on. Its hard to pay 3-450 for a 22 can and then pop another 200 on top of it. At least with my rifle cans they come out to under half the cost of the actual firearm they are going on. But absolutely 22 is the most fun you can have with a can.

    International Traton S13 driveline

    Oh it is very creative. Two def injectors, one behind the turbo and the other inside the "one box", eliminated the egr cooler in doing so, and eliminated the doc. It will be interesting to see the price on this one box when it inevitably fails.

    STP S3506

    Just picked up 12 of these filters for 1.80 a piece for my 04 Yukon. Looks to be the same internally as the white box super tech. Any info on who makes them by chance? Not really worried about, would just be cool to know. Will be running these with 15w40 for 5k intervals.

    Wix Vs Purolator

    Doing some digging on filters for the wifes 2015 Edge with the 2.0 as the service is due within the next 1k miles. Car is ran about 10 miles a day and then gets used as the vacation vehicle.

    2004 Yukon 4L60

    Ordering filter and lubeguard now with the seal. Shouldnt hurt if it doesnt have any issue now right? Only worrying because when I was at the dealer we turned them all away if it wasnt done before 100k

    2004 Yukon 4L60

    Good evening. I have a 2004 Yukon and while trying to figure out a rear end shake I noticed my output shaft seal is leaking. It has 290k miles on the original trans, (shocking I know), and shifts perfectly. Question I have is I know ill lose fluid. Since I am not having any issues should I drop...

    GMC Sierra 2500 HD L8T 6.6 gas - First UOA, PUP 5W-30, 4,500 miles

    I know im late to the party, but I was reviewing these UOA's because we have had serious problems at work with them. According to Isuzu, 1 quart for every 100 gallons of fuel is normal for these. We have also seen several come apart on the bottom end already with under 30k miles.
