    Man just do it before it goes out.

    I couldn't drive my truck because all i thought was it going to blow up and then with my luck FCA would not warranty it.

    So for a piece of mind I had too.

    I have less than 5k on it and I've been using hot shot additive since day one but just my luck like I said before!

    SS was the way to go forsure.

    I honestly hate to keep throwing money at the truck.

    I’m thinking hard of pulling it all off and trying to sell it.

    I want back in another Ford.

    It’s either that or get the CP3 conversion and drive it until someone wants to buy it with everything.

    i totally feel you on that, for me i looked at the platinum's and the limited and couldnt fork out 93K. Plus the interior of the 2500 is so much better than the fords. So I would do the CP3 and drive it until someone buys it or trade it in like so.

    I like the Ford interior better. Everything seems to be where it feels like it should be when you reach for it. I did have death wobble in mine at 29k miles. My 11 Ram did it at 40k. This one is getting loose feeling and I’m just waiting on it to have it. I’m not a bells and whistles type of person. The XLT with extra stuff on my 17 was the nicest truck I’ve ever bought. I’m always a tradesman or XL package guy. Heated and cooled seats are nice but man the price jumps so far up I’ll probably order the CP3 kit now and ponder on what I’m doing with it until about Christmas.

    What is the reason behind the loose steering wheel feel, and is this correctable?

    It feels like track bar slop to me.

    I’ve had to replace bushings on every one of these trucks I’ve had since 07 before 50k miles.

    I’m at 32k miles so far on it.

    I didn’t notice it near as bad with the stock Firestone HT tires as these Toyo RT.

    A Synergy Drag Link will tighten it up some.

    A complete Synergy steering kit with drag link, track bar & steering stabilizer will make it drive much better.

    I’ve got a FASS 165 and a weight loss on the exhaust.

    I’m going to order a CP3 kit. I’d rather go this route and not worry if I’m going to be stranded going to a job pulling my fifth wheel.

    The truck isn’t worth enough to trade in right now vs what I owe.

    I test drove a 2021 F-350 and loved it but the RAM is basically worthless being a tradesman.
