Bought a used Edge Evolution tuner, and installed it's tow tune to the truck. Seems a bit more "peppy"; will get a better feel for it when I pull the camper in a few weeks.


Scored a good price on the tuner ($120.00 including shipping). It was locked, but the service folks at Edge Evolution unlocked it for me for free! All over the internet. Took a wopping 30 seconds!

What did the carrier bearing cost you? Mine are bad in the rear diff. I'm going to have all the bearing and seals in the diff replaced and swap the open rear with a TrueTrac. It's going to run me about $1600 for parts and labor.

Nice, I did the same and bought a used one for $125 that was unlocked. I converted it to a Gryphon and am very impressed. PM if you want my custom Level 2 settings. Reset my MPG's Monday and after 180 miles of commuting this week here I sit:

New (used) BFG tires on my truck with 13/32 left and removed the steps. I'm hoping to sell them so I can buy single hoop steps.
