Getting a little work done to the 6.0

Took it to a guru for some healthy mods, EGR delete and head studs. Also fixing some oil leaks so it was just easier to lay her heart on the table I guess, ! Didn't realize that was happening so when I went back to the guys shop to get my sunglasses I had left in the truck I was surprised to see this sitting out front...

Re: Getting a little work done to the 6.0

Got it back today, almost passed out when I got the bill! There was a lot done though, Head studs, egr delete, oil cooler, Heads were slightly warped so had them resurfaced, all new idler pulleys, new u-joints on the rear driveshaft, steering linkages, turned the brake rotors and got a new fuel level sending unit assembly because mine was sucking air when it got to about 1/4 tank. The list is a mile long but these are the main points. I always said I was doing this to keep her.....no doubt about it now....OUCH!!!

Still cheaper than a new truck.

Yep, figured I was in it to win it now so I ordered a Bullydog GT, a cold air intake and turbo back 4" exhaust today. Can't wait to get it all put on!
