    816 Jakes and Turbo !!!!

    I would NOT bump the fuel TILL you had a WORKING pyo, the 250 DOES NOT have piston coolers, it would be a shame to cook a piston.

    1941 K18-C GMC Recovered today

    Turn the engine over with the original starter hooked up as found (+ground) IF the engine turns in the correct rotation then you know that + ground is correct, if WRONG rotation then you know that - ground is correct.

    Winch cable lube

    You DO NOT want to use USED motor oil on ANY CABLE, and for sure NOT ON FIBER CORE, the ACIDS WILL eat the fiber core, the acid WILL cause the steel core to rust, BOTH core conditions are NOT for good cable health.

    Spicer 3053A shifting problems

    I think the problem is the syncos, not staying in 2nd under deceleration and a chore of getting out of third and falling out of 5th ARE signs of bad syncos, just because it is supposed to be rebuild DOES NOT all the insides were replaced, more likely the bearings and anything looking chipped...

    TOUCH A TRUCK, Gainesville

    I got a request to put some "ARMY" trucks in touch a truck again this year because of the big hit they were last year with everybody, the event is AUG. 8, opens at 10:00 and ends 1:00, they want the trucks in place by 9:00, so lets see what we can do BUT no more broke cams.

    One for you 1070 guys, NEVER give up!

    For a 8x8, the HET is one of the worse trucks for traction that I have EVER driven, the straight frame along with air bag rear suspension keeps unlike the articulated rears, the axles from dropping into holes to get traction, even with low and ALL axles locked in. I moved 3 a while back, going...

    Trailer size, for hauling excavator?

    What the military does is one thing, by YOU going over the towed weight, ANYTHING that happens is on you because you have a OVERWEIGHT combination on the road, the 12000lbs is there for a reason, AGAIN your idea is TO HEAVY for the 1078, do what you want, your truck, you asked for ADVICE, you...

    Civilian trailer lights

    The military tail lights (not blackout ) are just the old 4 wire setup, ground, running lights, left turn/brake, right turn/brake. the turn signal bulb IS also the brake light bulb.

    Symptoms of a failing lift pump?

    Look for a small pin hole in the in tank pick up tube at about the 1/2 full mark, a small pin hole will suck air, and if small enough will seal itself then suck air, ect. thought the pickup tubes were steel.

    Safe crane operation

    Not really true, , A hyd. crane WILL go over backwards if the something (rigging, hoist cable) breaks while handling a heavy load EVEN with off side outriggers set, this issue is why rubber tired cranes are required to have ALL outriggers set BEFORE a lift is made, the outrigger will slow down a...

    Safe crane operation
