TWO D8's? I ran D8's and pulled out many trucks, never had one I couldn't get out. Including one that left an axle behind! Truck came out, axle did not.:shock:

You said one side rear was on hard ground, I don't see any hard ground anywhere near there. Someone taking another 5 ton in there to pull you out probably would have resulted in TWO trucks in need of recovery. I think you have now found out that the bigger the vehice that is stuck, the bigger...

I remember one a couple years ago where a recovery was going bad and the guy needed help on the road. People were networking like crazy to get help to him and one member even drove hours only to find he had moved on without notice. He never even updated OR thanked anyone for getting him home. I...

I thought you were going to blast and paint the wheels before the new tires went on? Am I to assume that they were in good shape inside? Hard to believe considering how that one front tire looked.

Careful what you wish for Zout, you may see me there yet. I have about had with plowing and retirement is looking better every day. I could load up the RV and be down there before you know it.

I have one right now that I saw this morning on the truck. They took it off against the wall in the barn and did not say anything. Looks like someone took a can opener to it, dead center just above the cutting edge. You old plow guys already know what happened here just as I do but the driver...

Thank you, blood pressure is restored to normal levels and bat has been stowed.:beer:

I cannot believe how straight that thing is let alone how solid. Somebody thinks about cutting a hole in the side and I will be taking a road trip with bat in hand!!!!! It is just to fugly to cut.

We run Western 8' Pro plows on several CUCV's and the mount comes complete and ready to bolt on. They do not weld on. Remember that this truck is the same as a one ton Chevy pick up so you just order the plow for that year truck. Sometimes the braces for the D rings will be in the way, you can...

If you are going to make a video of yourself plowing or doing anything really be sure you know how to do it correctly first. I have run plows for over 40 years and run everything from mower plows up to Oshkosh and FWD plows and blowers. You have a lot to learn and plowing and the way you are...

Agree with the battery connection. One of the main cables is loose or dirty. The fact that you have nothing at all afterwards I would check the connections closely on the front battery. I believe that is the one that feeds the truck lighting and operating systems, it has been a while since I...

The A2 will have CTIS which can be very unreliable and expensive to repair.

Fram, Purolator, Wix. Could use a metal one but the clear plastics ones you can see what is in them. That way you will know what is coming through the line.

I would tend to agree, bad fuel pump. Replace the pump and put a quality, brand name filter between the pump and the carb. You will have to pull the top off of the carb and rinse out the trash that has gotten in there. Also look closely at the gasket you say is leaking on the carb, it should...

You need to start a picture thread with yours now. We can have a competition.:twisted:

I was going to say the same thing, T-Shirts!!!!!! I am here freezing my gonads off and he is posting pic's of people in T-shirts.:shock: But you know what guy's, Soni built that thing in weather cold enough to keep most of us cooped up indoors all winter so he deserves the warm weather. I'll...

The older they are the better they are. The old units used very heavy windings and practically never go bad other than the power cord which is an easy fix.

I love step #3. If I am going to disassemble it I am going to replace the seals anyway, not just check them.

Stop leak will swell up ALL of the seals including the ones that are not leaking and then 6 months down the road they will all degrade and you will have leaks in places you did not even know you had seals. The best thing to do is drop the case and reseal the whole thing. Done and done and you do...

If the front axle is disengaged then what good is it doing you when you are stuck in the mud? I would much rather have an open differential driving both wheels in the mud and snow than I would have only one wheel available and have to deal with all the other associated issues.
