    Use the stock diff cover. Theres a reason theyre shaped the way they are. Banks has a whole youtube series about it. Most aftermarket ones make the fluid foam up, and dont fling it towards the pinion bearing.

      I run Manhattan , trust fund, spray tan orange combover, body guarded, Lying, gold toilet, golf course that doesn’t allow work trucks in parking lot, never have driven a truck, January 6 insurrection Republican tears for coolant. Most of the trucks I drive are built by union workers who have good health insurance due to democrats. I didn’t have to inject disinfectant in my veins to avoid Covid so I could drive mine. Nothing to do with my truck involved Saudi Arabia chopping up someone with a bone saw and it didn’t haul the body parts away in suitcases. Their was no Saudi Arabia a/ss kissing involved after such an ordeal. And my son in law didn’t get a loan from said bonesaw killers. My truck never needed the Republican tears from hauling Mike Lindell “MyPillows” from the factory. No Jewish space lasers took aim at my truck. No Q-Anon fluids were needed for the power steering or the transmission!

    I have 3 with cummisn engines 89 drw w350 01 2500 and a 08 6.7 drw 3500. All run great. They are very simple and bullet proof engines to own . The basic engineering that went into the first one in the mid 80s is still used today. Yes they add valves for air flow changed displacement but the basic design of that engine is still used. Great engine. I love my trucks .

    *got an 06 Mega cab with the 5.9 in it and i think i'm going to jot these recommendations down sounds like a pretty well researched plan and if i can get 500K out of mine i'll be happy. i of course am not a hot shot driver i only use mine to tow vehicles from one state to another occasionally, I don't even know mine well enough yet to know if it even has a CCV filter or not. but i have already replaced the entire front end components ball joints, bearings, etc How about a good recommendation for shocks because that's what i need now. and mine being a 5.9 i've been told to watch the P pump and injectors any insight on that? i replace the fuel filter every oil change and every second tank of fuel i add Sea foam to keep my injectors clean and healthy. was also told the turbo woll need replaced at around 200K miles as well right now i am at just over 180,000. i really need this truck to last because as much as i would LOVE a duramax, i want to cut my teeth with Diesel on a proven truck which is why i went with the cummins for my first one. any help would be greatly appreciated. oh and Blinker fluid should be changed out every year when you change out your head light lenses too just to keep everything all fresh there too lo*

Usually a failed system is used error(shutting of the engine at the start of a regen) the biggest issue with these systems is the lack of understanding how they work and when they are working. A friend of mine bought two identical trucks(VIN sequenced) and his had issues at 2500km third trip to the dealer, his brother drives the other and so far no issues. Difference is the wife drives his truck and doesnt pay attention to anything. I feel like he has doen a few things wrong leaves it idling for hours on a job site.

    servicing goes a long way. I've never been a schaffers man but I've been standing by Castrol and Mobil 1 forever. Castrol ATF and motor oil, Mobil 1 gear oil seems to do me the best. sometimes I'll use m1 when I can't find the specific Castrol I like to use. I've also noticed pads unglue with age, on my dad's truck we just changed them because of the age even if they have half the pad left. better safe than sorry. belts don't seem to really care about age but power steering once a year does it good. suck out the old fluid. fill it up drive a bit and do one more rinse and fill and it's good to go for the next year. little bit overkill but my power steering is 20 years old and running strong and quiet.
