Maybe run a zero pressure system and baby the truck. That might buy you a year ??

I was told that by another driver. I am going to see if it pushed out any coolent tomorrow morning.

Try replacing the other cap on the tank. Mine was doing the same thing till I did that.

I did not have any coolent pressed out last night

The fill cap. And why not if the pressure cap is in question put one on it.
My pressure cap side was full like yours. Now it has very little to none in it. It all stays on the fill cap side.
RE: Rebuild - Smiling lemon - 12-24-2020
I was thinking with the way the pressure cap is set up the coolent bring over there was because there is no drainage out of that area
RE: Rebuild - Chamberpains - 12-24-2020
Its more of a vapor/pressure over flow area.
Try replacing the caps. Draining the tank empty and refilling properly. Then see if it pushes coolant to that side. It could also be a cracked tank. These are much cheaper options worth trying and eliminating as a possibility than jumping to a dropped liner or worrying about an engine overhaul that is not warranted at this time.

If that napa test doesn't convince you, I believe you can send a coolant sample to Polaris labs and they can test it for exhaust gasses.
