    I second that. You might have a issue with coolant in the radiator as well.

    This is just too vague to do anything.

    Your truck has to have a manual in it that will tell you exactly what's what.

    Yea mines a 2016 kenworth t680 I checked the coolant and it’s below the minimum mark. I just got this truck and can’t open my hood all the way cus it’s has some huge deee killer on the bottom of the grill. I don’t need that extra weight

    Not saying nobody makes one. But I've never heard of one of those bumpers that wouldn't fold down to let you open the hood all the way. Can't even see that being legal as you are required to do inspections. And if you get in a DOT inspection, you better be able to open the hood if the officer wants to look under it. Otherwise, you're in for a bad day.

    You wont believe what they miss.

    If you told them you got a dead cat in the drive shaft they will totally miss the dancing dwarfs inside the sleeper.
