    8x6.5 to 8x170 wheel adapters... pros & cons?

    Any glaring reason to avoid this idea for my 2wd F350 SRW? Very little if any off road adventures - dirt/gravel roads or groomed fields would be the extent. Very little if any towing. 3000lbs in the bed on occasion. I know there are proper fitting 8x6.5 wheels out there, but I want access...

    Hitch pin purchase advice needed

    Don't know a thing about these. What do I need to know about purchasing a hitch pin for the 2" receiver? I won't be towing anything very challenging. Locking? Material? Finish? Design? Brand? Thanks.

    How to remove rear window?

    I just purchased a sleeper cap for the truck. How do I remove the rear sliding window? I suppose I should ask if it's even advisable to remove the window given the apparent difficulty in getting replacement parts. Is this a one time seal, or can I put it back in if I don't like this sleeper.

    Square shaped Banks air filter housing?

    I've seen the square Banks air filter housings that are coupled with a turbo kit. This Banks housing I saw was not labeled with a "turbo" mark. Did Banks sell these filter housings as a standalone, without a turbo kit? Or do I make the assumption that the truck has a turbo on it?
