    Where to use rtv on oil pan?

    I apologize ahead of time for the long post When I first got the 1028 home I noticed it was dripping oil pretty good from the very front edge of the oil pan where it is turned down.

    6.2 minimum head thickness?

    Does anyone know what the minimum head thickness specs are for the 6.2? We just took four heads down to the machine shop and we were told all of them were unusable because they had already been milled beyond minimum thickness. We thought it was weird that all four of them were bad. Even the...

    Just a quick question for you guys. My brother works at a car dealership in the detail bay, and the other day one of the techs was working on a car in the shop that someone had accidentally pumped 15-20 gallons of diesel fuel into.

    Landscaping(deuce style)

    Decided today that we were going to do some landscaping demolition. We were going to use the F-250 but we figured since we had the deuce at the house we might as well have a little fun :twisted:. After seeing how well these things were rooted I don't think there is any way that we could have got...

    Multi-fuel in a 5 ton.

    Can someone please school me on the 5 ton trucks with Multi-fuels. Are these similar to the engines in the duece's? I am wondering because I know of a 5 ton dump with a multi-fuel and I was just contemplating how the multi-fuel would do in a truck that is so much bigger than the duece. I was...

    M125....10ton?

    I just saw in another thread someone asking about M125's are these 10 ton's. I been searching for good pictures of ten tons for a while now, but they seem hard to come by. I am pretty familiar with the 2.5's and 5 tons as I plow snow for a guy who uses nothing but MV's. I would love to find out...
