Hey guys I would really like to keep this limited to useful info. I like a PB joke as much as the next guy but it is not helpful. If you know of something I need to add just post it and I will add it.


Thanx Chris

Stands for "Off Road Mod" and refers to disconnecting the MAF sensor on the intake of a CRD to functionally disable the EGR for enhanced torque and responsiveness (and fuel mileage).

patooie! - is the sound made when spitting out something that leaves a bad taste in your mouth.

as in "gassers (patooie!)" - when stated by hard core Diesel fanatics

(personally I don't think you need to insult gassers - they have enough problems already)

moab is an offroad park in UT

it's also a name for a favored rim many liberty wheelers like to use

it also stands for massive ordinance air blast - a bomb that is filled with almost 19,000 lbs of explosives ;) but i'm pretty sure you meant the first two!

Owners manual goes into some detail how to disable it to a degree. IIRC you can lessen it's sensitivity by pushing the ESP button, and it's off completely in 4-lo. Other than that, there have been a few discussions on moding it to turn off, but nothing has been reporting back. You can try a search. Personally I like it. Only time it gave me issues was after the lift, but an alignment fixed that. Since then it has only helped in bad situations.

I'll look into it. Thanks again!

in search of

also a file type used in imaging cd's and what not

***it's also a short-term used alot here to refer to an isolator usually in reference to the rear isolators

people commonly put up to 2 extra upper isolators ontop of the coil go gain some extra lift in the rear

No. Iso's are the small rubber pads between the springs and the axle (lower) or body (upper). Hockey Pucks are an inexpensive bumpstop.
