Mabye you should check the front weel bearings. I won't hurt to at least repack them before you go. Also check for wear in the steeringbox. if there is too much wear the tires will wobble and vibrate. And don't forget the u-joints. if there is a bad one the drive shaft will sing a horrable song.
I'm thinking of getting a radio for my trucks restoration. What was the most common radio for the vietnam era m35's? About how much would i expect to pay? And where could i find such a gem? other than e-bay? What kind of range should i expect from such a set up? Were they reliable? And would i...
This may sound crazy, but did you change the fuel filters? Is there any white smoke when cranking but not running? You mentioned the injectors sprayed when up side down, but when the piston in thecompression stroke there might be enough clyinder pressure to not allow a good spray. If the...
I use mine for EVERYTHING! I've hauled 8 yards of wet sand (19000#) , to fire wood, lumber, jeeps, and even the weekly wal-mart run. You won't believe how much sheet-rock this thing will carry. As for 10mpg, that's pretty good for a 13000# truck.
I know, And you way works also. Bret at boyce equipment showed me how to do this a few years ago. I've used this method on my truck and all of my fire dept trucks. with great results. espically for people who aren't experenced with IP's. Using the TM's way works also but is much more complacated.

Yea , what you are looking for is a silver colored (if it's not painted) round cap. IT's about 1/2 inch dia pointing twards the radatior. It's on the viscosity dinsety compencator. Just behind the distribtor head where the injector lines go to the pump. It should have a small wire seal going...
When you turn up the fuel rate make sure you have the engine up to operating temp. And change all three fuel filters. If you use dirty filters and turn it up when you change filters the difference in back pressure will change the setting. After the engine is warm remove the cap H R D mentioned ...
When i first got my truck the lift pump ran when it felt like it . After dissasembling it i found slime between the impeller and the valute housing. When i cleaned it with carb cleaner it ran great and has been for a few years now. The slime was bogging it down and over heating it. Your pump...
Does anyone have the timkin part numbers for the inner and outer weel bearings and races? And the weel seals also. I would like to get all the parts before i tear it down. Does anyone know about how much they cost? Thanks
The TEXAS military museum reopened in a former GSA site in Houston. I checked it out today. It was pretty impressive. Plenty of trucks and armor! The adress is 8611 wallisville rd. just in side of loop 610. If you get a chance check it out , it's a great place to take the kids.
