The cylinders are still in place, the hardware removed right after purchase. Those bits were our first attempt at noise reduction—

We have a clunky noise that I am yet to locate on the drivers side. It almost sounds like something is able to slide/swing side to side, though will also clunk over certain terrain variations. We can make it sound while driving down a county road and steering side to side. And it clunks going...

Ours look like the passenger side was changed and the driver side is original? passenger driver driver detail

Thank you. We'll be doing the fronts and it helps to see your experience. One question on the rears: I didn't see any RTV in the half moons? Did I miss it? You are definitely cleaner than I am while working–

The IFS is the high pressure filter on the HEUI output? Since I haven't kept up on this issue: filtering after the HEUI pump is better than before? or simply the best place to add a secondary filter? Next question is for the time and money, isn't replacing the oil filter housing gasket best...

Thank you @Keith Knight, and everyone else for thoughts and questions. While I would prefer not to do this you have pointed out that for some time and a couple hundred dollars this is a maintenance task level project. Where did you find torque specifications and such? I recall having books...

[emphasis added] Perhaps you meant your opening sentence as a question? with "lots to talk about"

Are you waiting on the CAT system or one like IFSkit.com?

Reviewing the CAT documentation I have located so far states that in North America Low Sulfur Diesel and Ultra Low Sulphur Diesel grades 1 and 2 meet CAT's specifications and to buy from reputable fuel suppliers. The operation manual for your engine has more specific information, (available for...

Slowly progressing. Painted the interior doors two tone: taupe and white. Hoping to start going back together next week—

I am no machinist, though it struck me the same way. The gouges are running perpendicular to the rotation, not with it. Those didn't happen inside a spinning PTO–

Check this thread before buying? Starting at fifth post by @MatthewWBailey—

No computer? Don't tell Rick =)

Our 3126b originally configured at 275hp does not have the barometric pressure sensor. My casual studies suggest a 330hp 3126b does. The code in our unit showed after flashing the ECM for 330hp. The pressure reading is unchanging. Perhaps we had the code before, though I am pretty sure not...

As I recall, if you don't have 15, ECM has a default static barometric pressure. If you recently reprogrammed ECM it is looking for sensor and not finding it, (error code), though still using statice default pressure— I believe the CAT part numbers are one number different—

Perhaps off topic: C40? Learn me up, please—

When I look at our ECM using Dearborn or CAT ET software our's shows how much fuel used and mileage all time. So, in Bluefire our Average Fuel Economy is only 4.6mpg. I don't wish the reset the lifetime numbers, though not entirely useful. In Bluefire I have tried using the trip distance...

Your Average Fuel Economy for the life of the truck is 7.5mpg!?

Most of us prefer a tight fit—

I did ignition, though as I am cleaning up the cab interior and adding another fuse block for power doors and windows on the driver's footkick, Bluefire will be constant, too—
