What's going on with the truck?

I smoked both the turbos on it from what I assume was multiple boost leaks and oil supply issues :( There was a hidden oil restrictor that I mistook as a plain fitting adapter. But it's been a while since the truck was down so I'm fixing all the small things and converting the front end to the '06-'07 style so I don't have to space my hood up to fit my turbo piping haha.

Emissions suck here in Colorado, but conveniently my parents live in Weld county so the truck may possibly be registered there ;). Luckily diesel emissions haven't gotten
as strict as the state mandated gasoline testing facilities. I would try taking it in with it as is and see if they'll let you slide. Just play dumb and don't mention anything about aftermarket parts. From what I've heard from my buddies that have to get emissions as long as your truck doesn't roll smoke out of it under load your usually good to go, regardless of missing equipment...

That, my friend, is your antilock brake module and hydraulic control assembly :thumb: Our trucks were not originally equipped with a lift pump.

Unfortunetly with my new job I don't get on here near as much as I used to. I would totally be down for a meet up tomorrow afternoon. Kind of late notice to setup but I should be good! Haven't been to the gun show in a while as I always seem to buy more than I should. :roflmao:

Ok so for everyone that is in, how about the the parking lot where the gun show is? Theres a big and tall store there too. The other side of that lot is usually empty. How is like 3pm?
