If I understand correctly, then yes there is a plastic seal or trim piece that the weather stripping presumably seats against when the door is closed.

From their website, they indicate a one business day turnaround time on custom rebuilds. Either way, it sounds like big box remans are to be avoided at all costs and even Redhead have a undefined...

No, I don't believe so. But they can do a rebuild on the E series box if you send it in. The back story is the owner of Bluetop used to work for Redhead.

I've also read mixed reviews on the diesel forums but figure this one is coming eventually. I've heard Blue Top has few come backs. https://bluetopsteeringgears-com.3dcartstores.com/

Thanks for the part #'s. Picked up a set. The dust gets in but seemingly other places besides the barn doors.

Lots of different yakima keys but I think 051. $100 is a nice round number. Plus shipping I guess.

I've got a set of yakima tracks (rails), 60" bars, and control towers/landing pads I took off my penthouse roof if you're interested. You can put a variety of cargo racks on that or simply a cargo...

Heck yeah! Congrats!

Year 19 on my rig although my 3rd owner purchase was 2010. Seems like I could still sell my rig for what I paid for it if not more.

After years of going through lead acid Interstate batteries on my 6.0 I went with AGM to match the house battery. I was going to go Odyssey but instead went with the X2 Power Premium AGM from...

wow, that's a decked out rig! I'm sure it's bittersweet but good luck on the sale.

I also did the Dynatrac big brake upgrade and can attest to how much better my 10,000lb van stops.

Yes, I think either the SRW cutaway or an E450 but I'm no drivetrain expert. The D60 I sourced from a salvage yard in Phoenix was out of a 99 or 00 van and was basically plug and play although I did...

I used a D60 on my full float swap but that requires use of the same spacers to keep a similar wms-wms. If you can find a D70 it's a little beefier and you may not need spacers.

Your best bet is...

I have a 6.0 in my 10,500lb rig and have 4.10 gearing with 35s. 2000rpm at 68mph. If I had a gasser I might prefer 4.30 or 4.56 for a bit more torque but it's not needed with the diesel.

I've been running the Toyo ATII's the last 30k. They have definitely gotten noiser as they wore but my biggest gripe is how much off-roading chunked the tires.

A tow tune will help but you can push the 6.0 harder than that. I back off at 1300-1400F EGTs (as measured pre-turbo) and am comfortable cruising at 1000-1100F all day long although generally I'm in...

That's odd and does not sound right. I would think that on a 2014 that SMB would have spec'd the bigger brakes. In 2008 they went to F-450 rotors on front. The part # you list is for the rotors is...
