    Electrical wiz needed

    i don't see why not if its a float style and a relay is providing the muscle, my old dodge uses a direct contact pair of probes and water completes the circuit, not sure if that type would pop a relay

    Are Runflats worth trying to save???

    wow sounds like it did its job well at that weight, if it slimed the side of the truck up as the tire opened and it started loosing the lube i found its reasonably water soluble when i pressure washed it out of my new 395s

    All 5-tons: Heavy Duty Torque Rod Ends

    i was trying to decide if they are worth twice as much for the deuce version as if they only last twice as long then they are the same price

    Best laid plans...

    should have a electric intank, can get a surplus parker replacement off ebay for about $60, probably cheaper then a good inline and likely more reliable, but not as handy for a quick fix

    i was thinking of trying a lazyier way of unlocking one hub and climbing the bank behind my house again and see if it'll still pull a front wheel, it burned all 6 when i got to about 45 degrees

    preferred air pressure for 395s?

    installed driveshaft and went for some seat time in the field down the street and it's fine off-road where the tires can slip, i think this was existing now that i think about it as i remember the pop pop pop occasionally on steering but the NDTs were more willing to scrub. lockout hubs are on...

    Broke my mirror

    sounds like what i'd be doing if the original rod has welded itself to the tube, nothing rusts quite like threaded rod so id paint the new one good to attempt to keep it from locking up again

    preferred air pressure for 395s?

    was moving it up on the driveway and it was hard to steer then a pop and a couple small ones and it was easier, wonder if i have a spider gear issue? still haven't installed the driveshaft but the air is now plumbed to the new transfer case and it locks the front flange when switched so that's...

    preferred air pressure for 395s?

    just took my first trip around the block this evening and it rides nice but is a mother to steer, it seriously doesn't really wanna turn (thought i was going to smoke a street sign turning onto my street) but as road surfaces change it turns better on some, it returns to center ok. definitely...
