i am guessing that with the older med duty trucks, they made the truck cab wider, to line up with the wheel base of the drive wheels. The new trucks they use the regular truck cab so they have the...

I dont believe the trucks came with a factory lift pump, at least none that I am aware of . There is a transfer pump between the tanks, but no additional lift pump. Of course, maybe some models were...

Fuel filter housings are notorious for cracking, I would keep the old one as an emergency back up. I have had to replace mine twice.

Interesting that your fuel filter housing is mounted to the engine, my 2006 lly housing is mounted to the fire wall on drivers side.

Glenn Meldrum liked post by rdminter On thread : Rear anti-sway bar

The air bags dont provide much support side to side, I would be careful when driving it without a track bar. If you take it easy, it might be alright.

Talked to the mechanic today, there appears to be plenty of boost coming off the turbo, but the intercooler is pretty oiled up. So he is ordering a pcv reroute kit and will clean out the intercooler....
