    I'm not new to forums or automobiles but new to the Ram 50/Mighty max. I usually do all work to my vehicles except for alignments or ecm tunes. I'm a Class 8 diesel mechanic by trade and always have worked on cars/trucks for the last 20 years. I know a lot about the newer diesel engines but not a whole lot about the older mechanical diesels. I picked up my truck 1 week ago. It has 41k original miles. I've changed the oil and about to do the tranny and diff fluids. I also plan on doing all the bushings and ball joints in the front end to start. I want to drop the truck a couple inches, new wheels, and change out the bench seat to a couple of recaros I had in my previous CRX. I just received my NRG steering hub so that I can install my quick release with momo wheel. I also have a wood nardi wheel. This is more for security. I can take off the wheel and put a locking top on the hub to make it a little harder to steal. I plan on making this my daily. My other vehicle is a 08 toyota crewmax. You can see pics of my other cars on my ig. dezelmechanic Pics will be up shortly....
