try clear painters plastic rather than a blanket (or a heavy black 6 mil) - freezing rain just flakes right off.

if you have a cab heater it should have defrost - if you aren't getting heat then it's probably because the valves to let coolant flow to the heater are closed.

why not replace the spring with an airbag and a pressure regulator so that you can adjust ride height/firmness.

marine or aircraft grade environmentally sealed crimps would work also

the only real concern to me would be your new roll center. a frame lift won't change that much but a suspension lift will.

i've got my stock take-offs. i'll have to look into that.

do you have fluid coming out of the vent line on the firewall by the air cleaner?

check and check - good to go. I'll order the first set.

yeah those anodized oil fittings are $$, but they are really nice also. I go for the summit racing brand black anodized fittings rather than the common red and blue.

just as a check to prevent any stupid mistakes. can I get someone to confirm the bolt pattern dimensions for both the 6 and 10 lug setups? just need a little QC before I spend money

I think that if you did it correctly and shortened the bed it could look good once painted to match.

pricing per wheel for a set of 6 is down to $145+ shipping without the need to preorder a large quantity. I'm going to talk to the machine shop to finalize plans and have the 1st set made. If it works as planned without th need for any tweeks then I'll probably just work it out so that...

it fades from purple to golden pretty quickly

yeah, I'm actually looking forward to the added width, especially when going to wider wheels. there are many budd type wheel studs available, most that I have seen have longer shoulders than the stock deuce studs. That also requires buying a full new set rather than being able to reuse the the...

yeah, the shoulder on the wheel studs is 1" long and has to be counter sunk in order for the adaptor to sit flush against the hub. there is a lot of meat to them so they can be aluminum without worry.

Yes even in the "survivalist" communities there are fringes. There are those that distance themselves from the public perception of hoarding and looting by calling themselves "preppers". Basic boyscout mentality of always be prepared. And of course there is the opposing fringe of people who...

I don't expect it to be everyones cup-o-tea, but expecting it to be as cheap as HEMTT adapters. Keep in mind that with those you still have to machine out the centers of the wheels at additional cost. These is a bit more to these than HEMTT adapters plates that are 3/8-1/2" thick. these are...

well even with my worst case scenario pricing that I have been quoted the total for 3 axles would be ~ 1500 if I can get people who are willing to pay UP TO 1500 to commit then I can see about getting bulk pricing. I've done sales and group buys before, but nothing this expensive. I know...

well right now my "high" price is ~200 per wheel. pretty sure that I should be able to get it down to almost half that. hardware for all 6 wheels (bolts, nuts, additional studs) works out to about 100$ total. So I'm hoping to get the total cost down to 700-1000$ for all 6 wheels. If i can't...

marine sources have both propane and diesel fired furnaces
