    I have heard a few times that you can lower a vehicles body height by flipping the rear end over and mounting it on top of the leafs ... Wouldn't this reverse the rotation of the tires relative to the desired direction of travel?:dunno

    Brownie Box???

    If ya get curious about ratios then peek at a normal 4x4 with hi and lo ranges ... Another good set of figures is for the old 2 1/2 tonnes from the military ... Those were fun ... Put yer arm thru the wheel so you stay straight while shifting 2 levers at once ... 3 levers if you were in a hurry...

    One good, one question mark

    As for not starting, when I first got my F250 there was a rats nest in the tailpipe ... Spent 2 battery recharges to finally build pressure to blow it out ...

    Back in the day I used to splish splash thru the puddles (door deep) and cross creeks at near wot ... In the deep holes we would see who could surf the farthest before dying :) ... That was how I learned to semi seal the engine compartment with sheet metal ... Later those places were closed off...

    Just bought a 84 F350 6.9 Diesel got some questions

    As for the gp's there are two schools of thought ... Stay with oem or go with heat regulating ... The old style can burn up if something happens and they get power for an extended length of time ... No matter which you choose I would suggest heating them up for a short cycle before installing...
