It is designed that way, from what I’ve read. When you request more power from the engine (step hard on the skinny pedal) the AC compressor shuts off to reduce parasitic power loss providing more power
Don’t overthink it. I bought a couple of hockey pucks drilled them out and countersunk the bolt. You can buy them pre drilled though multiple companies but it’s a truly simple and effective solution. It’s how I resolved the issue on mine
Tune and delete were clutch! It really increased the power/torque and I get more than 20mpg. Immediately added the sound deadening and hardtop liner to quiet it back down for the long trips.
Just got mine back from the dealer who self performed the repair. Be forewarned, the new hood is no longer aluminum and weighs a ton. I’d be inclined to ask if they can do an aftermarket hood. It’s incredible how much heavier the hood is and now the lift spring doesn’t lift it at all.
Those fuel lines are tight where it currently is and the added length of that filter is, almost certainly, gonna hang below the frame rails. I look forward to seeing your solution. I still hate changing my fuel filter, diesel all over the garage floor every time…
All black always. These lights are brighter than stock and really complete the murdered out look. I’ll be getting smoked market lights too… As far as legality concerns, I’m sure no one here has tire poke, excessive lift, or stubby bumpers
I’ve also been thinking about this . I currently have a Jackery 1500 watt battery inverter and the onboard 400 watt factory inverter that I use to recharge the Jackery. The only change I’ll be making the next time I need a battery will be to swap to a LiPo which is sufficient for my camping...
I don’t know why we haven’t all switched to LiPo batteries. They operate at better temps provide more CCA and are about 1/3 the weight. My next battery I buy will be lithium for both
Serviced my truck today and installed what was suggested.I was able to test fit everything with a spare filter housing I had. It turned out pretty good and raised the fuel filter housing above the frame rail.
Done! The Black Market cap fits perfectly while shortening the overall body of the filter housing due to the relocation of the bleeder screw. I had another fuel filter housing that I was able to dry fit everything and make sure all of the seals engaged properly. I’ll add that you need to be...
I just bought the relocation bracket from Iron rock Off-road https://www.ironrockoffroad.com/Merchant2/merchant.mvc?Screen=PROD&Product_Code=16374 and an aluminum fuel filter cap...
I pulled the trigger and bought the relocation bracket and the billet cap replacement. I’ll update after the install
After looking at all the part listings that are the same for a Dodge 3.0 eco diesel and 6.7 Cummins, I’m pretty confident that the aftermarket filter assemblys for 6.7 will fit...
It wasn’t dyno tested. I’m not a tuner or a race car driver, as much as I’d like to be one. I just want to be able to pass properly on the highway and have a reliable truck. While not tested, there was always a serious sucking noise from the hood, which I would expect when trying to pull air...
