If anyone who's coming has a spare 395/85/R20 they liked to sell I'd be interested, with or without an MRAP rim. I'll bring my HD straps and chain hoist just in case.

Seems like a good barn find to me, with a little tlc, that truck will look real nice. From what others have said, the pictures, that's definitely a multifuel. Was there a year on the data plate on the left side of the engine under the intake? Usually that plate will say the manufacturer of the...

Anything on that oil sending unit can make readings a little sketchy, I've seen that happen before quite a few times, especially those real sensitive sensors some cars have.

They didn't last year, but like Maa said, I'm sure you could get some stuff. Gimpy is going and it always seems he has a lot of odds and ends stuff. One thing for sure that would make some money is to sell some mud shoes, lmao. Last year it rained hard the last night, the next morning trying to...

That's why I installed amber LEDs on the front bumper. Normally the halogen lights work fine, until it's raining or heavy snow, but mine are 40watt flood lights that are pointed down and slightly inward so it lights the road up nicely but doesn't blind other drivers. I have yet to be shined with...

Both, my old deuce and the one I have now do similar with oil pressure. Not quick to get up to oil pressure and drops down to 15-20 psi when warm. Could be the oil pump, perhaps the new bearing and such has less tolerance so it doesn't push as much until it's nice and worn in? I would think as...

You driving your deuce this time? Logan wanted me to ask, lol...also, I'm throwing him under the bus...I know, the perfect dad right? But.... he's got a girlfriend now 🤦😆

Welcome from MI! Sounds like you have a good base model to start a project on.

Maybe someone was drinking bud light that day 🤷😆

So how is everything running with your truck? Has the change seemed to make noticeable difference and did you ever upgrade the air filter?

That's turning out nice! When you're done, you should have a beast on your hands, lol.

Sounds like you are surrounded by mini gold mine, lol.

I agree with Karl on this one. These trucks have some great capabilities but highway/expressway is not one of key functions these trucks were ever designed for. Slow speeds off road and rough terrain is more so the line of thinking. The easiest and most likely the most sure way to keep a good...

I'd definitely try to get some engines that have most of the parts there. For just a core, I wouldn't be surprised to learn that it could be upwards of $3k to fully rebuild one and aquire all the essential components. I've priced out what it would be to do all new pistons, sleeves, and bearings...

My bad, I do that sometimes, lol. Surprisingly, after owning two M35's, I've never been stranded by a mechanical failure, fuel issue, or even a blown tire (knock on wood), it's always been those darn belts. The third time I had extras on hand and the tools to do it, so I wasn't stranded for...

With a cold engine, remove the radiator cap, start the engine. Make sure the coolant is full when doing this as you are looking for constant bubbles and it will intensify as it warms up. Typically if there's knocking and white smoke, I'd do a EPA and health nut no no and breathe some of the...

These multifuels typically run cooler on idle compared to normal vehicles, the coolant system is quiet effective to say the least, lol. No bubbles, that's good and as long as the coolant level is full, check it after a few drives to make sure it's still full, if so, you're good. Hopefully that...

Been there before. Those canisters can be finicky at times and the amount of oil lost is definitely not by the quart, lol.

Thanks! The smiles per gallon is the best part!
