    Longbed Stepside Expedition Truck Trailer

    Brian - thanks for the build up detail and great pictures along the way. Wanted to see if you've resolved anything with the sway issue? I have a trailer that was made from a 69 GMC truck - 1/2 ton. It has the coil springs/coil link set up; and the bed bounces all over when I am in it or...

    How's the rig doing? Were you able to get the vibration/drive shaft issue resolved? How's the mpg's settling in at?

    I was interested in contacting Eric about getting a second fuel tank like Klmore had built; but have not contacted them yet. Probably will do next spring. While watching one of the youtube videos I caught (407) 257-9657 as the number and verified it on Google; but have not called the number...

    Glad to hear your son is doing well. Tough watching our children dealing with illnesses. I haven't heard much from diesel Excursion owners on mileage; but on the pickup side 14-16 seems to be normal with an automatic. I'm told that with a 5 speed manual you can hit 21; my father in law...

    6.5 or 454?

    By the way; I chose the 8.1 as I had a buddy who bought a 3/4 pickup with the 6.0. He tows a heavy trailer frequently and his big complaint is not enough power when doing so. I've NEVER had that problem! Cheers!

    Any further thoughts on the additional fuel tank/cell that was installed? Other than the additional capacity; does this tank feed into the original tanks you have? I noted that Eric stated that the fuel gauges were set/calibrated so it showed the aggregate amount for all three tanks. I also...

    is your yukon stock? Hello Happy; just joining this discussion to follow the conversion. I have an 02 K2500 Suburban with the 8.1 and Allison tranny; and am getting 12 mpg around town; 14 on the highway; and 9-10 if I really stomp on it. I will admit that I did have to learn how to drive...

    Duraburb Project

    Thanks for detailing this project out; enjoyed reading and look forward to the wrap up; etc. Question on the new tank; does it now feed into the original tank? I have an 02 K2500 with the 38 gal factory tank (running the 8.1l and Allison 5 speed) and have not found a way to add additional...
