    All states are different in licensing requirements.... Unfortunately Illinois is one to require it. Actually, I think there's a big blog about it on steel soldiers. If not, just google it.

    Yes you do... I had to pick a buddies deuce up in barrinton or it would've got impounded by lake county sheriff's department. They consider air over hydraulic brakes..... Air brakes.

    Check Your Tires

    They just wanted to make a sale. I just checked the good year site for the silent armor and it strickly says they are for light duty trucks. Maybe they changed it over time...

    Starter binds sometimes but catches fine other times. Thoughts?

    There's nothing in the world that a 3lb. hammer can't take care of.

    Check Your Tires

    Wow.... That was a very expensive choice of tire to run on a dually. I didn't think those tires were rated heavy duty for a 1 ton truck. I probably would've been in the same boat as you but I got rid of the truck when it started needing things.

    A little more affordable thermostat / engine swap

    Check Your Tires

    thanks for your service brother.... I am a truck driver and yes indeed. There is no way to tell when a tire is going to blow. That's why we just kick them and hope for the best. If they jiggle like jello then you got lucky not to have that tire blow on the road.

    Need to find M35a2 felt window channel glides the for both driver and passenger door

    I saw that but the ones I have on my truck would be easier to swap the whole rail. Instead of just the felt.

    Wise choice... My truck runs perfect right now and I personally wouldn't touch that screw without a pyro.

    Guys, your forgetting the multimeter load test. It requires 2 people. 1 holding the multimeter to the batteries and the other cranking the engine at the same time. Check each battery as they individuals ( one 12v, the other 24v), then check the earth ground on battery 1 to the positive post on...
