Scale of 1 to 10 for a complete newb wrencher- about a 6 or 7. I would certainly have some one handy when putting it together, but taking it apart isn't all that bad. You'll want/need a 1-1/2" socket for the lugs and either a good breaker bar, or a good air impact. You'll need a 3-1/2"?? Socket...

This, I found a few articles where the older cats eye lens were cut out, and a lens inserted for more light- it removes the function of black out lights, but certainly made the lights more visible for us civilians. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Gm went to a dual thermostat and HO pump to combat higher temps in the rear two cylinders. The setup did work, although there is some debate as to if the dual thermostat setup was really needed; most see an improvement with just the HO pump, but there are those that say without the dual setup...

on my '52 Studebaker, it is directly above the front, forward drivers spring hanger, I don't think I have a pic, but if you really need the visual I can probably go snap one.

I'll nominate my truck again, same pic as last month. I'll post it later when I'm at a computer. Sent from my LGL34C using Tapatalk

braze or solder as said- make sure it is really clean between the surfaces, and use some 120 grit to rough it up a little for a better hold.

well solved part of it, still don't know why the park lights came on in stop light mode, but I assume that is completely separate issue. but for the headlights, it turned out that the conversion kit I bought had the wires for high and ground reversed, which was causing the back-feed voltage in...

dual steer? or just the front?

little more investigating done, went through all the wires, then I went and pulled the bulbs and housing so I could test continuity in the plug, had continuity between 18 and ground, went to other side-nothing, no continuity, I was like great...but why only one side if both acted the same? went...

if the cowl didn't enter the actual cab I may be more willing for a cowl spot, but I would like less water intrusion points, as there are enough spots already for water entry. not to degrade your truck, but that is what I would say is a prime example of how not to install panels. silicone and...

Ok, I missed that thread-or it never came up in my search. I like the pole in the back of the cab-holds it above the cab for the most light. I would like to avoid silicone or tape, as I would like the ability to remote mount it should I park it in the shade or in a building, I believe there...

Hi all, recently picked up a Solargizer, and am wondering where people have been placing the solar panel- I have seen a couple mounted to the cowl-don't want to drill in the cowl and to the convoy lights, but I don't have convoy lights. looking for pictures please, and yes I have tried...

before doing any modification to a 6.2/6.5 you need to add an EGT gauge(exhaust gas temperature gauge), I believe the highest recommended temp is 1200, any higher you can start melting pistons, and blowing holes in the head gaskets. first things to look at are the pressures and fuel from the...

little update, tested voltage at several locations-it was raining so I didn't check alot, maybe later if it stops. but here is what I got- at both headlights-left and right, low beams only- 24.7 volts on wire #18 (24.8 volts at battery-truck not running for tests) I had around 10.2-10.7 volts...

Bringing this thread up, as it follows close to my symptoms. My high beam indicator is on when in low beam, turns bright when I go to High Beam( I thought this was normal, as it tells you when your headlights are on, rather then the parking lights; service drive + park = no headlights, although...

I got to and from the Weare rally alright- it died coming into the school the rally is held-went around the corner, clutch in, on the brakes-then realized the truck wasn't running- same thing happened when I got home- pulled into the yard-clutch in, it died-NO misfire or any indication-other...

Was a great show this year,my dad counted over 120 vehicles at one point-and more were still coming in-plus he never counted any in the vendor and back lots-so I'm guessing a good 150 vehicle at a minimum showed up. There was plenty of deals in the Vending area as well, as a whole I would say...

Doing some final packing then me and my dad are on our way. I hope the possibility of rain don't deter anyone from coming-last few years have had good turnouts.

If you add a turnbuckle, that would work. The turnbuckle would give you the adjustability to fine tune the boost. You would want barely any pressure initially, then as you tighten the turnbuckle, it will increase spring pressure which will create the boost. Oh, you'll want to add jam nuts to...

already checked for shaft play, all good there. and voltage checked out all right 28.4/28.5- maybe I'll lower it a bit later, but for now I think I'm all right. I tried to find a momentary, but no luck-heavy duty starter momentary, but didn't need that. I'll be ordering a momentary later, but...
