they had the same description for that pod, on the opposite side of my trailer i could just make put the dual wheels and upper corner of a MEP but one wasn't on the auction list, will be snouting around when i go to pick it up
only looked at the pics on the site so hopefully its not a turd in person, should be under $700 by time all of the fees fall into place, they called it a 200 gallon diesel tank instead of a 400 gallon water tank but i figure for the price i cant get hurt too bad as it looks fairly unmolested, id...
smells like liquid cancer and works great on small engine carb's and is my go to for that, melts the crap off that even good carb cleaner doesn't get, haven't extensively used it on engine parts but it basically smells like just about any old machine/head and block shop and is likely related to...
i could steer mine on the 9" ndt's with a locker in the front on the street but it would whip back straight pretty quick when you let go of the wheel, was nearly undriveable on 395s without hubs
the handy thing is 2.5 rockwells are popular in off roading so its a much deeper market then just deuces and deuce owners have a option besides a detroit or lunch box locker.the detroit in my front axle made it near impossible to drive on pavement with 395s before i installed locking hubs
somewhere in my 109s life which if the cab is original to my frame started off as a gas auger truck, it acquired a detroit in the front diff and on ndt's it was manageable to steer but the wheel would would whip back straight at warp 9 once you were done turning, would pop a little but was...
my 109 is comfy at 60 on 395s, mayve touched 65 once on the back side of a overpass as you will have your foot welded to the floor climbing it and need to remember to back off at appropriate speed
3' hunk of 1/2" rebar and a 12# sledge provided enough transfer of force to pop my inners but none of mine were really difficult to get loose as a pickle fork made quick work with all but the inners, did mine on the ground with 395s on mraps and unflipped hubs
with open diffs in a wet turn could get amusing real quick, id like em on the rears of my truck for back up (with a hand brake or extra pedal) oh sheet braking but not for service
dono if its informative but its interesting https://youtu.be/ZTz18-8NbCA at one point you can see the local branding on the side of the rf tire, seems peppy and doesn't quite sound right either
fired it up after a month or so and drove to napa to find out they didn't have enough of the supplies need to rebuild the blown drive motor hydraulic line on my bobcat, only sleeves and hose i have on hand are for ac lines and wouldn't expect them to hold 10 times the pressure on a bet, they had...
rubbed all of mine with silicone grease when i assembled then the first time with the used o-rings (i think 4 of my rims the first truck they were mounted on is mine but started off as typical surplussed assemblies), 5 outta 6 sealed and haven't needed any air in over a year where the 6th held...
they have the same frame width as the average 3/4-1 ton pick up so options are plentiful and specific units installed by others are easily found with a search, i have a beefy class 5 from a dodge to install when i find time
mine wasn't too hard to remove the fitting and install a plug with some teflon tape, did it from the top iirc, but being a carrier mechanic i am use to swiveling my meat hooks into bizarre and unnatural positions
the surplus parker with red on it aircraft pump is almost exactly the same unit, i think the price ranges in the 60-70 area when i got mine, the one i got i don't think it had ever touched fuel but was listed as used, yea the others are like 400, looks like they've gone up to 75 plus s/h, i...
