    I got a clicking sound that sounds like it is coming from the front wheels

    It changes with the speed of the truck but it doesn't stop when I hit the brakes. I thought it might be the wheel bearings but at 64K miles, I'd be pretty pissed off if the bearings were going dead already. So has anybody had this problem? Any ideas what it is?

    Has anybody tried changing the coolant/water mixture ratio in the intercooler?

    I added some Water Wetter and eventhough its hard to tell, the Water Wetter dropped temperatures in the engine. not a whole lot but its noticable. a few degrees drop in temperature can add up to a 5-10% increase in intercooler efficiency which means more power. but i was wondering if anyone...
