I didn't look over the wrecker. Too much truck for me. I did see 3 dumps lined up next to the deuces, didn't look at those either. Across the lot there are two 5 tons with shop boxes, another 5 ton wrecker, a 5 ton cargo truck, 2 more 5 ton dumps and a mess of m105a2's. The wrecker is in pretty...
buy your belts through OD Iron. He has the NAPA ones. I took the model #'s down to our local NAPA store for the exact same belts. OD Iron sells one of them for $6-7 and NAPA wanted $22 for it. I was like no way
Just and FYI on those M35A2C's from FT Lewis. I inspected all three trucks and I did start them to make sure they would start. There were three trucks a 4k mile one, 9k miles one and a 11k miles one. (all are "C" engines w/whistlers)
The 4k has absolutely no brake pressure, pedal goes all the...
I hear you on the 300+ mile drive. I was a bit leary driving a site unseen truck I won off GL. It had some braking issues that were resolved after a couple hours. I then drove her 170 miles home. Seems once she gets going and you don't over rev her you'll be okay. I was a bit too careful in...
Well, I haven't done much with her just yet. I guess I'm just not too ambitious just yet. Just drove her home and parked her so far. I've got a bad cell in one of the batteries. I bought some Costco batteries but as soon as I got them home I changed my mind. I'm going to take them back and get...
Hey Ross, I'm not going to recognize that truck with all these mods. Any other projects you got planned besides the airshift transfer? Any plans for new paint?
I think best remedy is to keep the windshield down/top removed and wear a rain coat and motorcycle helmet w/visor -or- build a pole barn to park the truck in -or- do what everyone else does and park it outside
Wow, pretty sobering. I've never had that happen to me but I will have a hammer and towel on standby. Thanks for sharing this story. Is this a pretty common occurrence? What's the common cause of this runaway?
ok gents, I just had a duh moment. Went out today to get all the snow off the cab of the truck b/c its starting to rain. The snow mixed w/rain...very heavy. Didn't want it to rip the canvas. Anyways as I started to broom off the snow then it dawned on me. I didn't wipe the snow away from the air...
First off, Doghead I did do a search and found nothing.
This question has been lingering in my head for sometime in regard to diesel exhaust color. What are the causes, diagnostically what can it tell you about the engine, and what should be done if you have a certain color. The colors...
