    NEW MEMBER!!!

    Hey, New Member here... Have an 01' Dmax 6.6-LB7, 3500HD ext cab dually 4x4.. I got the truck dirt cheap cuz PO said needed head gaskets, as I got further n further into the tear down I realized the PO neglected the truck... Upon pullin the heads there was standing WATER on top of pistons, rust in every possible place ya could imagine, water/coolant in oil... Removed the block n oil pan cuz motor was locked up plus wanted to inspect everything before throwin it back together n hopin for the best... Well turns out couple pistons were rusted to cylinder walls, after removing a few found deep scoring on pistons n walls, some rust on bearings, n the heads were shot as well.. So now I'm starting just gonna start with a fresh block n rebuild it myself instead of worryin if the used Dmax motor I buy is gonna last a week or few yrs... I will continue to post my progress as time goes...

    I'll putitlike this... I know how well these trucks hold their value, I basically stole it from the PO... I paid less than what they body n chassis is worth, like a 1/4 of it's worth..... Junk motor or not I had to jump all over it when the guy said take it
