    April 2004, M109A3 the story

    I didnt mention some parts On the way to see the deuce the first day I blew a fan belt on the 72 chev 3/4 ton. Lucky I had a spare. then on my way to install the new turbo I got a flat tire on the same chevy. It was like someone was testing my patience.

    April 2004, M109A3 the story

    yea I was pissed at first but in retrospect it made for a good laugh when I saw the guy's face when I rolled back into the yard. All he said was "CHOOO CHOOOO!" then coughed and yelled to shut the truck off. :driver: town had no bugs for a month ;)

    feel free to kick me out if you wish ...

    trust me man.. there are way crazier cats on this site. agree though your ratio's will be tough. Workstar Internationals I believe are optioned with a front drive axle. The military NAVIstar defense line obviously has. Thats what the Canadian military is using now. Big $$ for those parts...
