Hi all (sorry to the gals - said "guys" in a previous post and forgot that gals have diesels too).


Is there a recommended mileage at which it's safe to start installing mods? I have a new ride and don't want to slap anything on till it's broken in and "safe".


I was thinking 5K miles and at least 1 oil change. Thoughts?

I didn't put anything on mine until after 10k miles, you probably won't hurt anything starting at 5k miles though.

Started doing mine with 50 miles on it.

Depends on how close to the dealer u live http://www.dieselplace.com/forum/smileys/Big Smile.gif


I live about 13 miles from my dealer so I'd say at 15 miles+/-, pulled it in the shop and put the H2 rims on and cut 3/4" off airdam and tied the inners out of the way.


It takes me 4-5 hours to strip off the stuff then put it all back on the next one.


Some put them on soon others wait a bit.


How about some specs on the kids, hard working?

I added gauges first at 2500 miles, AFE and Banks monster at 5000, edge juice at 9000.. so far so good.. I think your right about waiting until at least 1 oil change and 1 external tranmission filter change.. IMHO http://www.dieselplace.com/forum/smileys/Geek.gif Edited by: david b

I did my mods during the test drive.http://dieselplace.com/forum/smileys/Big%20Smile.gif

I have it on good authority that BIG DIPPER installed a program in the dealers driveway right after he payed for the Duramax.http://www.dieselplace.com/forum/smileys/HiHi.gif
