Clinto, I believe your right! Lots of all kinds are going for really stupid prices. I think a employee some where is bumping the bids. I've seen lots go crazy on the bids and then a month later the same lot is forsale again. I think when the bid gets too rich the real bidder bows out and GL is...
If you don't want to spend any cash, then pull the axle shafts out of the front axle. And take out the front drive shaft. Then you don't have to worry about wearing the axle shaft splines with a bored hub rubbing on them. If your main focus is milage then slow down to 45mph. On his trip to...
Do you know what kind of metal is was? If it's silver babbit , then it's the bearings. Brass, cam bearings. Cast iron chunks, then who knows!. Try putting a machinical oil pressure guage on it and checking the pressure. the guage may not be telling you the truth!!!!
I can just see a deuce going through a emmisions test!!! Try giving Bret at boyce equipment a call. They are in ogden. He can tell you what utah requires.

It was 25 gallons of gas. And it ran like CRAP! But it did run and it got me to a bigger town where i could get diesel. I don't think runnig gas is a good idea but it will work. As far as advantages to diesel only? We've had a few fire trucks in our fleet that were converted. I could NOT tell a...
The pitman arm is the arm on the steering box. The arm he is tring to remove is on the knuckle. Right by the top ball joint. Striking the 3 stud won't help. Although it does relieve a small amout of fustration. Striking the end to rotate it a bit on the knuckle should help.
I had the same problem. The guys at superlift told me to strike the arm at the very end. Not up or down. If you sit on the ground with the wheels straight and looking tward the front of the truck.Hit it where the drag link attaches. The idea is to twist he arm slightly on the steering knuckel...
