    Coolant Filter Yes or No

    The one I have used on my 5 ton has a spin on base and acts just like an oil filter. If it were to get clogged, there is a spring & bypass relief valve. There is a lot of surface area on those paper pleats. System would have to be pure mud to clog up a filter. In the HD world, once a year is...

    Glow plug question

    My wait light would only stay on for a nano second and barely visible. I took a parts gamble and just changed the glow plug temp sensor with a used take out from epay. Works like it supposed to and easy fix with an 1-1/2 socket. All is good. Mine came from Unatil? with a Make offer option ...

    Brakes, power steering, hydro boost?

    I guess I won the lottery when I installed my winch. I just filled the reservoir and turned the wheels right and left a dozen times on the ground running, checked fluid, add a few ounces, and down the road I went. :-)

    Fun with PA DOT officer ending in putting me out of service + $1200 in fines

    Just my .02 It just plain sucks to see what you have been put through. I do not have specific PA experience but will share general life experiences. Traffic and Vehicle safety is under the guise of "public Safety" but is generally a revenue enhancement process. The fact that a contracted...

    CB and 2- meter antenna builds.

    The mast for the As-3900 and the Mx-6707 are different threads and not interchangeable from what I understand. The cheaper sincgars antenna is the AS-3916 which uses a steel whip. Usually the bases are cheap. Make sure you get one with the collet nut if you do so. Hainey Electric on ebay has...

    "Popping" noise in front end

    Thanks for posting. In another lifetime I sold parts and service. Unfortunately, I have seen many ball joint/control arm separations along with tie rods. Never good and always causes a lot more damage mechanically and usually body also.. Great reason to always look at all the stuff on the front...
