    Where to buy tire and wheel?

    And I would recommend csm tires. The ones I got for the funvee were of excellent quality and the shipping was acceptable.

    Light bar!

    As cool as it looks with the lightbar over the windshield , not that practical. The glare from the hood takes away from the ability to see farther away. Even with the flat paint on the hood it still doesn’t help unless you put a shield under the light to almost reflect it up. There’s a lot of...

    Shaking above 65MPH

    my funvee would shake so bad I was afraid to go over 40. Ditched those run flats and put on some Goodyear mtr’s from csm tires , if it wasn’t an issue of the truck running hot , could Cruz 65-70 with only a little viberation. It would help if I got them balanced , but I only go to the legion or...

    Hercules LDT-465 - significant amount of diesel in oil even after FDC bypass

    No you Can’t just remove the injection pump head , there is a notch on the pump gear , if you force off the head you will break off a section of the timing gear , the same reason you can’t just install the ip head without making sure the timing is correct for the head to the pump. However you...

    Catastrophic tire failure?

    It’s just a little cracking. If it’s on a farm or something like that. No issues but if your going down the highway at 55 +. That’s a totally different issue ,

    Bad Starter or Flywheel?

    I have the same issue with my Duce. Sometimes when I push the button it’s just a hard click , may take a couple of times than it’s all go , usually when I haven’t used it for a while. This has been an issue for 20+ years. I got a spare or 2. Just in case. 👍

    The funvee is not happy with me 😞

    90deg going uphill for Miles ! Gauge going up to 240 even at 55. Around 205 when driving around town. But who knows how accurate that gauge is. Every bump I hit that gauge just freaks out. First real trip of any distance since I got it.

    Engine block drain cock for coolant change

    The only issue I had with using any acid based product is that if it’s not completely removed or neutralized and is present in some sediment it will continue to eat away at metals and you’ll get leaks. Just like rust , it never sleeps. 🥸

    Engine block drain cock for coolant change

    When I went to drain mine I couldn’t get mine open either. But I pulled the “plug” on the water pump and attached a garden hose to it. The radiator drain worked most of the time ( I could get to it to clean) but I just opened the hose full blast and started the truck and ran it at @ 2k until the...

    24v led lighted license plate

    There should be NO current drain from an led bulb. Is the ground on the tail light good especially if you used the tail light ground for the license plate light.
