Bad bearing; I would trailer it.

I can be your assistant Phil. Sometimes you get tired watching people work and need a break. :beer:

That sucks Woody... :sad:

White smoke is moisture in the exhaust. If it doesn't go away after the truck warms up you have head gasket problem or cracked head.

Chartreuse = Pink.

And pigs squealing!!!! :tinkerbell:

Nice looking truck! [thumbzup]

If you heard air escape, the vent is plugged. 5 MPG sounds about right. I get 6 MPG with the M818.

The proceedure is in the TM, I think the -20. I just cleaned enough grease out to make it easy to clean the grooves where the boot goes. Didn't repack or add grease before putting the boot on. Afterwards you can grease the top and bottom king pin zirts and that will end up in the knuckle.

Some time the "park" button sticks. Hold the park button in on the motor that works and see it it pops the button out on the other motor. Don't know why it does, but it does on mine.

You just have to look around. Be prepared to go to one of the neighboring states. My trucks came from SC and GA. AL has a lot go through also. Good luck.

I'll bite, what compressor reservoir are you talking about?

FYI, I'm buying bolts for a design project I'm working on for a local company. At Fastenal they are $72 each (they are big bolts). A buddy told me to check out McMaster Carr; I did, they are $14 there. :doh: Fortunately I was able to stop the purchasing dept from flushing big $$$$. It pays...

Ear plugs.

I would not want to drive my CUCV everyday (did I say I like AC?). And towing, well, it's 150~ HP; you aren't towing anything fast except down hill. If you just want something to play with then go for it. If you really have a need for a tow vehicle then give it some thought. There are lots of...

:ditto: Go to Home Depot (or equivalent builders supply store) and buy a palet or two of concrete blocks and then take them back when you are done.

Is there anything loose in the parking brake assy that might be chattering when the drive train unloads as you coast? Try putting the transfer case in neutral with the clutch pedal pushed in while you are coasting and see if the noise stops. If the transfer case is in neutral and the clutch...

Welcome.

You can make a cheap viscosity tester by getting a ladle (one with a cup on the end for dipping in big pots) and drilling a hole in it. Time how long it takes for diesel to run out then and use that as your reference point. You can calculate viscosity changes for different mixes by comparing...
