I have some tractor weights I could haul there, but I will get a bunch of those dirty girls to add some weight. I should have no problem finding some big ones...
Maybe a little bit. I'll probably haul around a bunch of dirty girls. I mean pretty girls... I think I have a pretty fair chance on winning the tug of war event. It all comes down to weight and tires on the pavement. Even the biggest trucks there will probably not be as heavy as I am. I don't...
Ah Hexx... Are we having PCB problem discussions again? Actually, the take-down and rebuild was not that bad. It does take some time and patience, but you will come away with confidence that you can fix a no start problem.
Well, getting ready for Rednecks with Paychecks @Saint Jo, TX on 13th of Sep.
Reconfigured and install troop seats for my dump. Going to install power inverter to drive lights for that brass pole and disco ball in the bed. We pimp'en this baby out! Champagne buckets on both sides... Love seat...
Ok, thanks! I will drain those and let things dry up for awhile. Before I added the oil, it was leaking gear oil but not bad at all. Maybe it will stop on its own. This truck sat unused for 5 years before I got it. It had 17 hours on the drive train when bought it. I only have 144 hours on it...
I sure did. Lol!:-D They leak just fine!
So, your differentials should be filled 1-1/2 below the fill plug. I have midget hands and fingers, no knuckles! :p
Just kidding! I will follow your instructions. So should I drop the oil level in the other differentials? I'm not seeing any issues with...
Ok. Well, I guess I have three differentials now topped off with oil. Left side, right side, and middle. :p I took off the guard plate to see what was going on and oil came out of the bottom bolt holes, so I figured I needed to fill them back up. Those knuckles have (2) Allen plug screws...
Both of my front end ball-joints are leaking oil. Left side just a little bit, the right side looks like a seal is out. I'm sure this has something to do with filling them up with oil a few weeks ago. I haven't searched the forum yet for HOW-TO answers, but I will. I took possession of this...
It is amazing how my M929 captures people's attention. I think it's the camou paint scheme and desert tan rims. Everywhere I go I get complements about how cool my truck looks. I didn't intend for it to look this way, but that's how it is... It's a working ranch truck for pasture improvement...
Oh, I think 395s fit better and look better. More balanced for the size of the truck. Actually, the 395s weigh 100+ more pounds than the GY. I think they are 500lb with run flat installed.
old GY 49s
new 395/85 XZLs
I can take a close pic if you need one. Talk to Jeff @wartimefinds.com in Bells, Tx. He's got a stock pile of 95% XZL for $150.00 each. You can go new w/combat rim for $500.00 each. He went up on price a couple of years ago. I got lucky and paid $350.00 each. I...
I bought my 929 dump with those GY 14.00 X, or XL on it. I replaced them with the 395/85 XZL and it runs smooth. I like the 46" tire much better. Mine came with run-flat. Since I haul with it, I'm glad to have them on board. I ruined a rear wheel with the GY 14.0. The tire shredded to pieces in...
