    Anybody want to buy a KIA - like me!

    I married a Korean girl so if anyone needs translating done let me know. :) and ditto what was said by maccus. they have had US rights for a long time same like the Canadians. And just like the Canadians there were modifications made to make them more locally user friendly.

    they are a great tire. Use them until they are worn. at least you have the wheels now.

    talk to Bruno, I am not french and they patched me to him ;) it was quite the convo between myself and the frenchies too. I really need to brush up on that. #9 just tell him you want 14 for the price of 12. then you could split a whole set including spare with someone or as above...

    Head Gaskets/Freeze Plugs....It begins

    ooh this is what I wanted to know. The sleeves are apparently REALLY easy to change in these and I thought it would be worth while doing the wrist-pin bearings, rings and sleeves if the pistons are still in good shape. If it needs a re-bore at least you know now and not 100 miles later after...

    Think I'm going to lose it

    multi meter is your best friend man. do as the others suggested above and take the guess work out of it. I have had brand new starters out of the box broken. cant rule anything out. start with the easiest solution and work back to the harder stuff ;)

    help wiht M35A2 fuel system problems

    yea If I do some injector work where the lines come off I just crack them loose at the injector, crank the engine until fuel spits out then quickly tighten them back down to the injector. I would not do this on a duramax but the multifuel is no that high of a pressure.

    Canadian MLVW wheels

    they feel like they weigh 200-250lbs each and 4 per skid. so they seem a bit off on that quote.

    Break lights arent working.

    when mine stopped working it was the brake fluid actuated switch located at the front of the boost pack. 2 leads going into it. its the silver thing at the right of the cylinder with the rubber grommet and leads. threads in. Some deuce's have a different setup however $15 = cheap trial and...

    as far as I was told about checking valves is you fill up the intake/exhaust port with fluid with the valve seated in the closed position. if you get seepage you have a bad seat (or bent valve.) great photos

    they are right here http://www.prefair.ca/products/?id=3314&s=556 in any case if they are gone you can always buy the ML frame @ $1500, comes with 6 tires and axles. same price, get the chassis and axles free ;) I will split the shipping to Winnipeg then ship you the tires on my dime if you...

    Canadian MLVW wheels

    they flat out told me it was a pain in their arse to separate the tires from the rims , and be stuck with the tires. In other words they will not sell just the rims. at $250 each with tires you cant complain though. you basically get the tires free and they are 90% tread. Prefair sent me...

    Canadian MLVW wheels

    echo11(Ron) has them in the states already and from what I see there its a very fair price. reference the same link above with the measurements. 600lbs strapped to a skid wont cost you much continentally. mine came complete tires and rims on 2 skids (2000lbs) from Quebec to Winnipeg for $230...
