    green iron fever

    Do you have to title and register those trailers? I'm looking at a m101 for my cucv. I know the laws are different states...but the info might help.

    Tire rubbing pitman arms, ideas?

    The vibration could be caused by the dent in the driveshaft (assuming you mean the rear drive shaft).

    I'm out of gas

    RE: Re: RE: Re: RE: I I tried the silicon thing and it didn't even sputter. Maybe I got the wrong stuff. I am currently in the process of replacing the mechanical pump but its time for work now, so that will have to wait till later. I thought of a hand pump too, but I couldn't figure a way...

    Mounting and assembly of Hummer Beadlocks

    If you take the runflat out, there are people that make a PVC insert to take its place and retain the beadlock. I'm sure you could make them yourself.

    I'm out of gas

    RE: Re: RE: I I also want to add that I did look in the tank and the fuel level was low enough to cause problems while parked on a hill.

    RE: Re: RE: I I parked on the hill nose up (gas away from the pickup) and when I got back it started but then quit when I put it in drive.

    I'm out of gas

    Re: RE: I Its at a bank parking lot. I rolled it down the hill so its sitting relatively flat now. No I'm going to get a small funnel today and see if I can get fuel in there.

    I'm out of gas

    RE: I It was running good previously. I parked it on an incline and it restarted briefly and then it shut down. Of course I say it was running good based on my 2 weeks of really driving the truck. It could have been running at a diminished rate the whole time and I'd have no idea.

    Gas engine conversion

    I guess I just realize that the diesel cycle is much more efficient than any gas engine. There is also the fact that people seem to be leaning toward diesel engines and other non gasoline powered transportation and I'm not sure how much gas will be available and how much the cost will rise in...

    Gas engine conversion

    Its not like these things are speed demons as it is. By towing with speed I meant 30+ mph. I think a 6bt would compliment the drive train of this truck very well. I'd get a 6bt and try to adapt a manual trans to avoid the issues with dodge autos and to make the truck better and more fun to drive.

    Gas engine conversion

    If you want to tow with some speed, why not swap in a Cummins and do it right? That is a distant plan of mine. That would make it one hell of a beast. My truck tows alright through the mountains of Virginia. You just have to make sure you have plenty of time to get where you're going! :lol:

    I'm out of gas

    RE: I Is it safe to assume that my mechanical pump is bad if I cranked for that long and no fuel made it to the filter?

    Mounting and assembly of Hummer Beadlocks

    So these wheels come with a bead lock insert and runflat or is the runflat used as the other part of the sandwich? Is this o-ring something that needs to be replaced when you take them apart, or can you reuse the o ring? If you need to replace it, where can they be purchased?

    I'm out of gas

    RE: I I was cranking on and off for the whole 2 hours I was with the truck. If the mechanical pump is strong enough to pull the fuel up with only air in the lines then that must be the problem. I couldn't even find the injector pump when I was looking for it. Where is it? Also, what is the...

    Can I Burn Crude Oil

    Using off road diesel in any vehicle that is driven on road at all is extremely illegal and carries big fines.

    I'm out of gas

    RE: I I just got home. I had to borrow a friend's van to get back for the night (the truck is about 40 minutes away from my house). If anyone else has any more info they'd like to share I'd appreciate it very much. What I've tried so far: Filled the filter with fuel and I was cranking it...
