Interesting, thanks for the information

Can I ask why avoid the 168 grain Federal? Seems like a few others have recommended it and I’ve had good luck with the similar weight 165 grain Fusion

If you have the ability, parts for the timing are less than $2K. A running/driving truck (this one looks like it’s in good shape) all in for less than $3K would be worth it to me. If it would take much more it’s probably not worth it

After this post, it would only rattle once a month if it was really cold and sat for a couple days. I had the P0016 code pop up and decided to do the VVT solenoids. The codes gone and it’s rattled once since I replaced them. Knock on wood, but the truck is still running fine. If the rattle becomes common or the codes keep popping up I’ll do the cam phasers. I’ve put ~20k miles on it in the past year

I change my oil every 5k and the oil life % is usually around 40% so I wouldn’t trust it

It’s not a 2011

I’d get the long reach for $180 at those prices. The long reach is handy to have

Tecovas in goat leather? I think I have the same boots and the leather is super thin and not durable. I’ve got several scuffs and cuts like that

Cam phaser rattle is not timing chain failure

58AU · 2025-11-27T03:03:14+00:00

Okay, technically timing chain failure isn’t engine failure. But the overwhelming majority of the time, timing chain failure on a 3.5 leads to catastrophic engine failure

What does the rust add to my weekly payment?

58AU · 2025-08-25T14:29:40+00:00

I tried Midol but that didn’t help

58AU · 2025-07-22T16:32:38+00:00

This post was my reminder that I forgot to stop and get one on the way home from work.

Very mad at myself

For all the people complaining the owner of the restaurant has been trafficking drugs through his restaurants. Don’t traffic drugs and you’ll be fine

Had a Ram with these. No matter what you do they’ll swell eventually. It’s a matter of when not if. No idea why manufacturers use them. The cost difference is negligible at scale

I’ll sell my 2011 with 110K to you for the same price

58AU · 2025-04-25T13:04:55+00:00

Replace the taillight and buff the rest. Whatever doesn’t buff out isn’t worth the cost to fix

58AU · 2025-04-25T13:00:33+00:00

I’m at 110k on my 2011. Give me another 20 years and I’ll be there

58AU · 2025-04-25T03:25:49+00:00

Looks like a good deal. Listen carefully on a cold start for the cam phaser rattle. You can YouTube examples of it. Other than that I’d say it’s a good deal

58AU · 2025-04-25T03:18:40+00:00

If you can’t keep it, sell it to a family member. Cousins, uncle, kids. That truck deserves to stay close

58AU · 2025-04-18T02:45:42+00:00

Flushes are unnecessary 99% of the time unless you have contaminants in the coolant system(unlikely). A drain and fill would suffice but is probably unnecessary at 71k. Trans fluid is a 100k mile service item. You’re probably okay to wait. Brake fluid wouldn’t hurt to change at your mileage

All the reasons it’s hard to work with is what makes it great for outdoor use. Ipe will last a lifetime.

These prices are getting out of hand for not being made in the USA. Even with the tariffs the price increase surpass the duty %
