Get rid of the short bed, get a std bed, then you are setup..... BUT, with this in mind, others have said you are ok with your short bed twuck wannabe. So go for it! Marty ps, I must be showing me age!?!?!?!?!?!:R:R:R You sound like my brother in law that thinks shortbed trucks arent trucks. We both work construction except he had a work truck and a I use my shortbed and haul more than him.2.3KViews0likes0CommentsRe: Question about Dexcool coolant

I would not use it, but everyone has a different threshold for pain.:B X2, there are many mechanics who recommend using coolant other than dexcool. In my case in a Chevrolet, I had gasket problems which allowed the water to get in the motor cylinder. Yeah because nobody has even blown a headgasket using standard coolant!!! I've used dexcool for 330,000 in duramax trucks with no problems.351Views0likes0CommentsRe: Toy Hauler Travel Trailer

Have to make sure to load as much as you can to the rear of the axles as tongue weight will be very high without toys onboard which is common for TT TH rigs. That about how we are also. IMO a toy hauler our toy hauler is more roomy than a standard trailer.278Views0likes0CommentsRe: Tuner for towing on a 7.3L Powerstroke
Custom tunes for dp tuner or beans is what is best for the 7.3 period. I would also do a bigger trans cooler 6L if possible but there are not cheap. If you have tranny problems and you will its just a matter of when. Get a BTS tranny its the best. Once you have pulled with a built tranny you will never want to pull without one.708Views0likes0CommentsRe: Did I make a mistake in Financing? How long do you finance?
