Hi Guys,
It has been a while. I have a couple questions regarding valve adjustment. Truck runs well but I have started to notice the valves chattering under a heavy load. Decided to tackle the job myself this time after reading through the threads.
Little history. I bought the truck with 112K...
Update.

To those who have...
Late reply sorry. I tend to enjoy my truck and use mud as a "ask the guys who know". I will be better at sharing what I have learned. Mine never actually squeaked but it would groan. The thing that bugged me the most was the noise it made in the winter. It sounded like a old American car that...
