LMAO!! I knew when I read the post that this isn't going to be good....lol

Seriously though, it called PREVENTATIVE MAINTENANCE... you know, a PM. You replace the stuff that breaks often to keep your sorry a** on the road and not broke down on the side of the road...lol

 

And replace other stuff just because it's fun to tinker

 

wow this thread got reallll confusing on page one but went right back on topic on pg 2

 

Sometimes, other stuff is replaced because it was broken while stuff that needed to be replaced was being removed.

 

The real answer is we have nothing better to do but come to DF and then rip our truck apart In pursuit of better mileage, performance, better mileage, smoother ride, better mileage, cool wheels, better mileage, more towing capacity, better mileage..

Oh and better mileage is another thing we try to achieve when we change stuff out on our trucks.

Experience is the key here, The knowledge of many helps the rest of us along the way in getting our rides into shape.

Just today I replaced the dead bugs on my grill. I don't think they increased the horsepower much, but they do help to hide the bubbles in the chrome.

 

and better mileage! I don't know if that has been mentioned or not.

Just sit down and relax young one. You might learn something from this forum while we all replace our stuff that may or may not need it.

 

You ARE aware that removing those bugs is a violation of various EPA restrictions? Not to mention the environmentalists will have your *** in a sling as soon as they find out..... Probably not a good idea to mention that on a public forum.

 

Didn't notice yet that your license plates are missing, eh?

BTW: Don't make any sudden moves when the SWAT team busts down your door tonight.

 

I didn't listen to the good folks on this site about the importance of checking the plenum gasket and now i am looking for a new 5.9... If you are there or close, CHANGE IT!!!!!! Im scared to remove the bugs thae chrome might come too... Later
