Daily Driver/Tow truck

djr4x4 · May 23, 2015

This is a 2008 job 3 truck. So far, it has sinister egr delete/w elbow, dpf delete with a 5" exhaust, AFE intake kit, and spartan tune (atm on the 210 tune).. I see most of the trucks on here are built for high horsepower running at the track etc, but what I'm looking more at is what would be some wise things to do to this truck to help make it last longer as a daily driver and towing 8-10k loads on occasion? Just looking for a list of what would benefit me...

ditch the Spartan, get a safe towing tune, and drive it like a sane person.

I used to tow pretty heavy (15-20k) every week with my 6.4 when the oil field was booming last summer. I never had any problems but I was thinking about doing a drop in 72 at the time for a bump in power and to lower the egts but since I'm planning a rebuild this winter and the main focus will be to shoot for 800 hp and have a truck that can tow anything I throw at it.
