    Thuren/Fox 2.0 Front Shocks Loose

    Last month I installed the Thuren 1/2" springs, track bar and Thuren/Fox IFP 2.0 shocks on my 2022 3500. During the install, when installing the front shocks, I noticed I ran out of threads on the stem of the upper shock mount. The connection was mostly tight, but sure enough, on the first drive...

    For those who received their truck via a transporter .....

    Mine showed 12 miles when loaded on the transport, and 13 when delivered to my house. I requested pictures of the odometer when it was loaded and exterior pictures on the transport. 18 mile increase is way too much.

    Gooseneck Hole in Wrong Spot / Welding in Patch Panel Precautions

    My installer said this is the second 2022 he's had an issue with, gooseneck hole location being off 1/8-1/4". The supplied jig has two holes, a round and square hole for locating the pilot hole, depending on if the truck has a reinforced piece of steel on the hitch platform. My installer...

    Gooseneck Hole in Wrong Spot / Welding in Patch Panel Precautions

    I have been taking my trailers to this guy for over 10 years for maintenance and modifications, and he is an registered installer for B&W. Never had a problem until this Major screw up. Like the saying goes - If you want it done right, do it yourself. I am kicking myself.

    Gooseneck Hole in Wrong Spot / Welding in Patch Panel Precautions

    Initally I though the bed would be fine unsupported, but then I talked to a tech at B&W, and they mentioned that was the reason for the designed recess pictured. I hate having to do this to a truck with 50 miles on it, definately a last resort. I also though about riveting a panel underneath the...

    Gooseneck Hole in Wrong Spot / Welding in Patch Panel Precautions

    Hi guys, I thought I would save some time and have my local B&W installer put in the gooseneck hitch. He screwed up royally, the hole is 1/4" off, and he used a 4" hole saw instead of a 3-1/2". My idea for a fix is to have a welding shop cut out a square around the hole and weld in a patch...

    Central Dispatch shipping from Mark Dodge

    I upped the price yesterday to $2300 and immediately got interest. I might have priced it a little high but really wanted to get this final shipping stage done. The truck is scheduled for delivery this weekend.

    Central Dispatch shipping from Mark Dodge

    My truck arrived at MD on 12/20, and was listed on Central Dispatch to ship to the west coast, a 2000mi trip, on 12/22. Initially I was told the shipping costs would be between $1200-1700. So far, listed at $1700, no interested takers going on 10+ days. My question is, for those that may have...

    Snow Chains

    V-bars on the rear and 3/8" twisted links up front. I make sure to get the fronts real tight with tensioners so as not to do any damage to the truck when running them hard.
