    Thanks. Appreciate the info !

    Ramdough Cab Modifications Build Thread

    Ran across this. Seems in some cases the straps were in fact used with the old hand grab.

    A0 vs A1 Air/Hydraulic Pump

    Interesting. Because there is still (to my knowledge) only one rebuild kit for the pump. Following because I have to rebuild my A1R soon and I have the kit.

    A0 vs A1 Air/Hydraulic Pump

    Yeah, I can't prove it but if there were to have been a change it would have been at the shift to armor variants (the extra weight).

    Stupid Question about Highway Gears??

    Don't get me started. Corner the market, set the price.

    A0 vs A1 Air/Hydraulic Pump

    I'm pretty sure so. I know the hoses and the manual pump are the same on my A0 as my A1R. Not 100% sure about the air/over pump, but I can't see why the A0 would be any different (same task).

    Ramdough Cab Modifications Build Thread

    Good stuff. There are a lot of places that can use some insulation behind the dash. When I pull my heater to do the AC I intend to stuff as many spots as I can find. Yeah, the handles are a tight fit. I'll be looking for a solution myself when I do my interior. I'm thinking it's either...

    What is it?

    Actually, solar and wind are officially classified as "unreliable". So the how does matter...to Texas. :) Abbott ordered the Public Utility Commission of Texas to take several immediate actions, including: Streamline incentives within ERCOT to encourage development and maintenance of...

    Ever try to get those damned stickers OFF? And there are at least two dozen slapped in various places all over a truck. And they are sun-baked on... Heh

    What is it?

    I won't post because it's politics, but right after I posted this I saw that today Abbott ordered the Public Utilities Commission to make it happen. :)

    What is it?

    No, a buncha fuckwits moved to *my* state and thought wind and solar were a good idea here. Turns out, it was all a really STUPID idea and now we need to build more fossil-fired power plants in Texas. And we're gonna... :)

    How many need a Detroit locker for LMTV ?

    Seek out Bryce over on FB.

    What is it?

    Shit froze here last year. Not gonna let that happen again. Seriously, though I got it for heating the garage when I'm out working on the build or the cars. :)

    What is it?

    Yep. My space heater has internal power. The battery recharges itself thermodynamically. This is in case you want to charge the battery manually. Plug it in and clamp your cables to the shiny bits. I chcu7kled because this it the most high-tech heater I have ever seen. With a very low...

    What is it?

    68" is the center point. So roughly a inch less outboard. I forget how long the 5-ton bed is, but you'd add like 4' of cover. You would have to customize the frame mounting points (or get busy with the scissors and sewing machine). It could work, though.

    What is it?

    Here's my "What is it?" entry: (I know, I'd just never seen one before)
  18. Third From Texas

    What is it?

    Stock is about 68" to the base of the center bar. The cover sets down about 6" from there. I raise mine a couple inches via collar to space it up a bit, so mine have a few extra inches. I think 3" is the max that I would go using a collar. You could go further by making extended feet...

    2008 A1R
  20. Third From Texas

    What is it?

    It's not so much a "park" as a roll lock. A failsafe when stopped at an angle (to prevent hopping out of the cab w/o brakes and rolling over yourself I suspect). It's a thing, not just stuck shoes. :)
