    Frame Differences?

    If you really need one that badly, I probably have one. Where are you located? I'll be heading west to pick up another LMM this weekend.

    Frame Differences?

    I tried to get a clean one from them, but their definition of clean vs mine differs drastically. I ended up buying couple trucks from salvage auction for parts, which is going to end up pushing me over the edge into building a duraburb too.

    Frame Differences?

    I sandblasted and epoxy coated my frame earlier this year. Ordered a case of this to put over the epoxy, but haven’t done it yet. It works great on freshening up older frames that have the dried out coating after scraping off the loose crap.

    You’re welcome.

    Cheap oven cleaner takes that coating right off. On another note, since you washed the loose stuff off you could just order the factory frame wax called nox rust from daubert chemical, spray it and get it back on the road.

    Move bumper makes it even easier. Cut off the 01-07 mount entirely and make that new frame horn look like the lmm one. The LMM mounts bolt on and come as a kit with everything needed.

    That sums up pretty much all the differences. Don't worry much about the year, find the cleanest one you can and run with it.

    Head gasket build

    The only time I saw 25k psi at idle is when one of the wires between the ecm and fpr broke. If communication is lost the fpr defaults to max pressure from my understanding. Just fyi, incase you get it all back together and see the same issue.

    Just picked up my first diesel....lbz from a buddies dad Need help with efi live

    I have unlocked lbz tunes from a long long time ago in a galaxy far away from a well known tuner who had their own 3 letter acronym. But basically what you just responded is what’s wrong with car culture these days. If we’re all a bunch of scared shits unwilling to help the noobs and keep it...

    Autocals are a waste of money. Find a flash scan and post your base tune. I'll send ya something.

    LML total delete

    Point is they shouldn't need to be deleted or need a cp3 conversion to be made reliable. Older stuff was not designed with emissions as a priority and will undoubtedly be more reliable and last longer with relatively minimal maintenance compared to lml trucks.

    In my opinion/experience, yes they are more reliable. Unfortunately I'm well ver$ed in all of the generations of duramax motors and their equipment with all the repairs and rebuilds over the years. All 3 of my lml's were crap. One was plagued with emissions issues, solved that and then promptly...

    Help tuning 7.8 Isuzu

    Its tough. I flashed about a dozen vin numbers before I came across one that worked. Checked the fuel rates with each one using a tech2, and kept notes. It took about a week of browsing commercial truck classifieds until i found a listing for a dump truck in Canada somewhere being accurately...

    Help tuning 7.8 Isuzu

    Doable, but not via aftermarket and your gains are limited to factory offerings. These 6HK1's came from the factory with a couple different power levels ranging from 200-330 hp and 520-860 ft lbs. The only way to tune it is to find the VIN of a truck with the 330hp power level and reflashing...

    What is the number 1 thing you have done to make your truck tow better?

    Efi live, 62 gal s&b underneath and a 60 gal transfer tank in the bed.
