The parts look like new money when you repaint ones that were sandblasted clean.

Wes, Only 5.5 hrs? that's a lot of driving to help out a fellow truck guy. It's guys like you that make this community special. I met you at the rally and you ate with us. Thanks for all you do it is noticed by many. Thanks for helping out and I hope one day I can help you...

Gimp, I hope you can make next year I will take care of you then with beer and fuel again. We missed you this year and couldn’t even give the beer away. Your transportation guy who brought the parts declined it. I tried so ended up giving most to SandCobra’s national guard buddy who came with...

Which direction out of alignment are you referring to? Center to center alignment is fixed by the dog bones and their mount locations. The side alignment floats some but the spring pads holds them. So what did the alignment shop say exactly?

He is welcome to ride with me on the Sat convoy. I will be in a tan deuce also Sandcobra will be in a 5 ton we will be lined up together. Just ask most folks will welcome a rider. Eddie Cannon

What park did we go to last year?

Thanks Chuck the parts cleaned up well no issues. I am available to support others on their projects. My blast pot holds 6,000 lbs of sand and the silo that feeds it holds 30 tons. Eddie

I usually blast on Saturday's. if you can plan on that I have some work scheduled this sat but future ones are open so look at you schedule and let me know. It's not far for you about 1 1/2 hr is so drive to Albany. I have a large commercial blast system. I do this as a side operation. My shop...

If you bring me the body parts I will blast them for you. Eddie

I would check to make sure the fuel shutoff is not stuck in the off position and moves freely. It should be about 7 oclock position for a run condition. If that is fine then possibly the button came off the hydraulic head...

If the engine has been sitting for a very long time then there is a risk that you may have a stuck valve. I would pull the valve cover and spark plugs. I would then lube them and slowly roll over the engine watching each valve to make sure they are free and not stuck. If any resistance is felt...

Greg, I agree with your opinion on the ZDDP addition. I use that in my trucks that have flat tappet cams. I was wondering about some of the newer lubricant additives such as Archoil and others that use the term Nano lubricants. I am not sure what exactly they are. The technical data is...

You are better off with a nicer truck. Your money ahead with one that everything works and you can enjoy it right off. Have fun.

The boot retainer ring is separate from the seal. It goes in after the seal is in place. It looks just like a seal metal housing. I think the TM describes installing the boot ring. I didn't see any way to pull the ring without distorting it. I simply used a sharp pick to carefully remove the...

I just changed mine last week. There is a retainer ring that holds the lip of the boot in place. The seal is actually behind that. You have to use a sharp pick and carefully remove the boot lip from under the retainer ring. I looked at it for a while until I figured out that. The new boot is...

Don't argue with someone that knows their stuff. Rusty is correct there should be no movement on the hub with your hand. Any loose movement will hammer on it and can quickly destroy itself. New disks are less than $100 so just replace it. You can do it right or do it over your choice.

Drive shafts are usually measured center to center on the joint ends.

I work on heavy equipment frequently and heat will help you here. You probably will need a rosebud to throw enough heat get the part hot enough. I would heat it up to a dull red where the pin goes thru and let it cool some then strike it again and see if it moves. It may take several heat cycles...

The specs for the original bushing is .752-.753" ID 1.003-1.004" OD 1.2" long I found several that were close and would probably work AA-1005-2 is .7505" ID 1.002-1.003" OD 1.25" long $ 2.80 each AA-1049 .751-.752" ID 1.0015-1.0025" OD 1.25" long $ 1.80 each The slightly smaller OD is...
