Guess I need to get my eyes checked, thought I read that's what you put on after the blow out...but rereading, yeah, "installed set BF Goodrich, not putting the same on" Sent from my SM-S920L using Tapatalk

Looks like no one was hurt, so good. And also what was the brand/make of the blow out tire? 6 years old and not past indicators is pretty poor. Sent from my SM-S920L using Tapatalk

This, this is all you need to know for either a 6.2 or 6.5 water pump. Serpentine spins one way, V-belts spin the other. If this is the first time doing the water pump, I highly recommend pulling the whole timing cover, for two reasons. One, most times the seal breaks on the block side, and...

How are you bleeding the system? Super easy to make a pressure bleeder, then bleed air pack, the the rears, moving closer to master cylinder. As a last resort and only temporary, I would make a new line from master and use an in line adapter to connect to the out of the air pack, this will...

Everything checked out good, the rear most passenger wheelbearings were almost completely washed out with oil, and it was showing signs of leaking past the inner seal, there was a slight greasy stain on the inner part of the drum, and some radiating streak of grease going away from the seal...

Dang, at the pace your going you bringing it to Weare?! Excellent progress so far, keep the updates coming! Sent from my SM-S920L using Tapatalk

4 of 6 brakes inspected, 6 of 10 wheels installed. Almost didn't find the outer nuts, apparently I didn't stick the thimbles with them when I replaced them with the single lug nuts when I first got the truck. But almost all good, missing just one right hand threaded outer. I haven't torn into...

Front brakes passed inspection, the tires always get a little oil on them, and because no oil was inside the drum or the wheel bearings (grease was extremely clean and looked like they were just done) I believe it's all from the knuckles, my drivers boot has always given me issues, first was dry...

Yup, that looks like one of them, but the one I was thinking of was really concealed and had a flip up license plate, I still can't find it, I lost my computer, and some files weren't recoverable, including my favorites, because I knew I wanted to do the same thing. Sent from my SM-S920L using...

Do some searches, I tried for 2 seconds, but didn't find the thread I was looking for, but several members have been pretty creative and thrown a winch behind the stock bumper, keeps an even better attack angle then a winch bumper too. Sent from my SM-S920L using Tapatalk

With 4:10 I feel your pushing it with 65mph My 6.5 turbo, sm 465, 3.42 gears and 31" tires (actual road diameter 29.5") will do 55mph at 2200 rpms, and it likes when I get up to 65 at times, which is around 2600rpms. MPG really drops after that though. I would opt for 3.73 with 33" tires...

Had to do exhaust gasket and welded a cracked tab on my intake. I have a leaking airline from compressor, looks like an odd size-7/16" most likely. So off the find a way to patch and/or fix. I took a quick video walkaround, I'm going to try uploading. I now longer have access to a reliable...

If the tires are in decent shape without much weather checking or dry rot, then they should be fine to make a short trip. The trailer weighs about as much a small utility trailer-and those ones don't have trailer brakes. I always check a trailer 1 mile in the trip, and if I'm going more then 10...

Welded cracked tab on my intake, I took the picture after getting the manifold back on the truck and did exhaust gaskets. Did them last year, resurfaced the manifolds, and only one of the three blew out, and it was a big blowout. No clue why, or for how long, noticed it the first time I...

They used the 10 bolt in the heavy 3/4(8,900lb GVWR) with 8 lugs, knuckles in was all the same, spindle and brakes changed. IMO plenty strong for road and some decent off roading. The downside to the rear axles is the semi float, both for 14 and 10 bolts. If anything I would upgrade the rear to...

Wow...2 years since last update here...anyways, wiring was/is not the issue, I've gone over every inch of the system it will still do it. Voltage is great, I think it may be the coil just getting way to hot, it is untouchable sometimes. I may try to go to a pertronix system, and make a dedicated...

If any one wants pictures I can get some, but I had to cut one and weld it to another standard deep socket, added about 1 inch. There are several issues, first you need a deeper then normal socket, second to get around the water jacket for every cylinder but number 6, it can't be too long...

Yeah, you don't want to risk any engine damage on blended fuel, these IP need true diesel to remain lubricated, plus because the gas is a much more volatile combustion, it can cause cylinder damage (just like ether/starting fluid) Sent from my SM-S920L using Tapatalk

Mine would remain dry when running, but overnight the bottom would be wet, and then I would have bubbles when starting. It would stay dry all day, so long it was started within 4 hours of running. If I let it sit all day when at work (8 hours) it would have some bubbles, and the base would be...
