Message: [QUOTE="bordo380, post: 1521242, member: 23305"] I have a 2001 and you pretty much nailed it all on the head. Its my first diesel so I love its low end torque for pulling compared to all my gassers. I only pull around 7k though. It’s on it’s 3rd transmission. It had two stock ones that it burned through in 250k miles. I had a local shop build me a great one with aggressive shifts and a better stall. Springs are terrible front and back. Get some off a F250 and replace unless you are going extreme lift. Needs stiff shocks too. Ranchos can’t hang. I got RS9000s and I should have went bilstine. The steering is it’s main flaw on mine other than transmission. It could use a red head gear box since I’m almost at 300k miles. It’s getting sloppy. I would also ****** the exhaust back pressure valve if you are in Texas. Mine hangs up and it doesn’t know it’s warm already. All in all still a great rig with great highway power with only a TS 6 chip. Still A rough riding dog off the line but it can do so much and hold all 4 of my boys with ease. Good luck. [/QUOTE]
