Greetings!

What a great site!

I'm a new F350 owner & first time diesel owner (trucks a '97, but new to me) and already I've found invaluable information here. I've ordered a new CPS based on information I've read on this site regarding intermittent shut off. Also ordering Bilstein shocks, B46-1237's & B46-1328's; Are these good for stock suspensions? It will be nice to keep my shirt clean at least until I get to my job site rather than wearing my coffee as I navigate the construction zone outside my neighborhood.

Is there a list of basic improvements that can be done and what to use for general maintenance... oil filter, air filter, fuel filter. I've got no desire to reinvent the wheel!

Sam's Club has Shell Rotella, 6/1 gal for $52.24. Is this a good price?

The most surprising thing so far has been the horn. I can't wait to change the stock horn out to something with a little more db's.

Hopefully someday I will be able to share something of value with the rest the members.

Thanks!
