New Member here hello everyone!
hello there everyone i just joined today but have been reading forums here since about december. i have recently became the new owner of a 2000 Dodge 2500 4x4. she was definately negletated but i am slowly bringing her back to life. There is also a story behind it on how she got there. I started dating this girl in june and her parents hired me at there custom glass shop i needed a job bad i was unemployed. The truck used to be the shops work truck because have had to haul huge glass panels to and from job sites. then the owner who passed away last august had 2 sons both of who are passed away as well sad stories for both of them one committed suicide in prison (i will leave it at that) and the other one became addicted to cocaine and was driving the truck a some peroid of time. well he would go to detroit (which isnt the best city to be in if your white and are looking for cocaine) but he would buy large quitatties so he would have to visit frequently. well long story short he pissed off his dealer and was shot next to the truck. (creepy as **** i know). But since the owner passed the bussinuess got sold off and my in laws started up a new one same thing. and the truck was for sale i got her for 1500 even. it has been awesome this winter when we got snow. i did a tune up plugs, wires, cleaned throttle body, oil change, rear passener side axle seal fixed, and got a new brake line put in. message me if you have other questions or post them here so far its been a good truck need to do plenum, tires, struts, steering box and steering stabilzer, posi lock , and bushings for the front end, and a new intake setup as mine is cracked pretty good.

Something about plenum and intake stand out. If intake is cracked, get another form JY and look up kegger mod - and install aluminum plenum plate on it. Reduces downtime if you have this built up and ready. Also give some thought about replacing timing set with double roller set and water pump and tstat. Pulling intake, you will already be down to thaere anyway-no better time to change than then!
