After checking these forums almost daily over the last 18 months(and stopping at the GAS station as freuently w/my 2001 6.0L CC) I finally upgraded to the Dmax. Just wanted to say thanks for all the great info.& photos posted here. Also,can someone give me a quick "break-in" schedule as far as oil & rear diff. changes. I regularly pull 5-8,000#. Thanks again!!

Welcome Had2,

You will not be sorry for the purchase. Below is a link that I followed and most on this site seem to go by. Look up search under "break in" on 2500 Trucks and drivetrain for more.

Good luck,

Mark

engine oil change a few times in the first 3000 miles....trans filter at 5k rear end at 5k transfer case at 5k ..... dont skip any of these steps! the rearend and T case had a LOT of crap in the oil!!!! Use only good oil filter(gm,baldwin,hastings) make sure you fill them before you put them on!!! after your first 500~1000 miles drive it like you stole it for the rest of its life! they almost seem to run better after a really hard pull.
