Here's what I've done... new air intake, egr deleted, straight piped from turbo back, CCV filter, fuel filter and 2" front leveling kit. I don't have any codes showing. The dealer said they did the oil change but I checked and the oil is pretty black so I'm gonna change it and probably go full synthetic. I've seen mentions of other filters, water seperators, etc. but I don't have a service manual...

    I plan to change the fluids in front and back diff's and get the transmission flushed. I basically want to be at a fresh starting point for all maintenance since I have no idea if the last owner did anything to the truck.

    Can anyone throw out suggestions for additional maintenance items!
    Do yer fuel filters too... then do em every year or 15,000 miles after

    Good stuff.... Truckers bring it

    I've been running Baldwin filters (oil/fuel) on all my diesels and Delo 15w40.
    They're cheap and work great, change often and never had any issues.

    Use good quality filters. Mopar, WIX, Fleetguard.

    Hope you don't buy a "cold air intake" with an oiled filter, if you did, return it if it's not too late.
