6.0 head gasket question

Custom goosneck hitch for older rails
For a goose plate I welded 2 plates [5/16"?] together with four interlocked welded tabs for the rail pins. Using the plate keeps the ball low and under the 5th wheel hitch like others above. As for gearing, in my 87 it has 4.56 r&p and towed anything I ever put behind it, just as good as my 05...- 87crewdually

EGT sensor
No factory reading of EGT's on these trucks. You can pick up a gauge and probe kit and install one yourself. To install you would drill and tap (1/8" NPT) the drivers side manifold near the #8 port. To access lay on your back under the truck and look straight up and you'll see there's plenty of...- 87crewdually

I'm about to install the newly released Sidewinder Kit!
Pulling grade I don't go any higher than 1150*. When you tow you'll notice you can control the EGT's with your right foot on the skinny pedal. Also pulling long grades try keep rpms 2400 or higher to keep the EGT's from rising to quickly.- 87crewdually

What speed, gear, and RPM do you tow?
We did a trip out to Knoebels a week or so ago. Left Jersey, went out through Bloomsburg south 487 to J&D CampGround. A couple of good grades that knocked your speed down but nothing to worry about. The truck liked 2500+ pulling grade. Rpm depicted speed, so if it got down below 2300rpm, I'd...- 87crewdually
