  1. What a fantastic truck, quite envious!

    I would say it is definitely resistance related fault in a sensor or output such as a module.

    Once it cools down then the resistance returns to normal and no problems.
    Crankshaft position sensors are renowned for this, I know you said you changed it out but new ones can be bad from the manufacturer?

    Worth checking everything again and also look at any connections because they can suffer the same issue

  2. That's part of a plastic clip that holds the brake/fuel pipes in position on the chassis rail/floorpan area under the car.
    There are usually quite a few located on the underside so no chance of the pipes falling off but would be advisable to purchase a new one and fit it into place when you can

  3. I think a liberal application of WaxOyl will solve most of the surface rust issue and also make sure it goes inside the chassis legs through the holes as corrosion usually takes hold from inside

    Once applied (which is easy but messy) then you can see what else is left to tackle but you would be amazed how it will transform the majority of the truck

    Be sure to use eye and hand protection and not to smoke as it is flammable and can cause damage to eyes and skin

  4. This can occur when the engine speed drops too low, the voltage regulator drops down to a low charge rate but increases with revs. 
    So thoughts are:  voltage regulator faulty, earth leads faulty or corroded and also alternator pulley size is incorrect (got caught out by that one many years ago)

    Also check the idle speed is correct and if possible rectify an issues that are causing the engine to run at a low speed

  5. It sounds like you need to return the truck to the dealer straight away as they need to deal with this issue as a matter of urgency.

    Could be a caliper issue again or even a brake hose, ABS any number of things could be causing the issue but it is something that urgently needs resolving by them

    Let us know how you get on with it
