    IDI return line caps - aluminum 6061!

    I just came across these again. The link to the eBay page shows no page available. Are they still available?

    Convert to push button start? No key needed?

    I wired in a ignition switch for a farm tractor to mine years ago. Whenever it wears out I go to a Napa or Tractor Supply and pickup another one. It has the Acc, off, on and start. I just traced the wires (or a diagram) and hooked them up accordingly. I put a hole in the plastic on the dash on...

    Thinking Of Plumbing My Two Tanks Together

    My sealing was jb weld. Didn't have a better way and figured if it didn't work I would do the Bronco tank on the rear. It's been 10+ and no problems but a tightening the valve. I'm very happy and, as you wrote earlier, no more thinking of a transfer valve, etc. I'm very old school, simple and...

    Thinking Of Plumbing My Two Tanks Together

    Your setup is definitely cleaner than mine. I didn't have access to welders or any machining type tools so it is a bit redneck (just like me). My lines are 1/2". After getting under to look at it I remembered that the only place it leaked was a small seepage at the valve on the front tank, I...

    Thinking Of Plumbing My Two Tanks Together

    Sounds like a decent plan. I would suggest supply and return to the front tank then all the smaller hose needs to do is transfer and it can equalize do it at a stop if needed. Hope yours work as well for you as mine has for me. I had the same reasoning for doing the transfer hose, couldn't find...

    Thinking Of Plumbing My Two Tanks Together

    I did this over 10 years ago and have had very few issues. 1) I put shutoff valves on both tanks to be able to isolate the tanks if there is a problem. 2) I initially pulled off the front and returned to the rear. This can be an issue if you need to disconnect one of the tanks. I ended up pull...

    So what did you do with your truck today?

    Not today but June 4th thru 15th. Did a 2,700 mile trip from central Ca thru Bakersfield, 2 days in Hurricane, UT, 2 days in Moab, 3 days in Ft. Collins, CO, then 3 days home across I-80. Elevations ranging from 80 ft to over 11,000 ft above sea level. Had planned to take my overland rig (1999...

    Injectors without o-rings... do any exist?

    If done right (i.e., carefully with lube), with quality O-rings (i.e., Russ from https://russrepair.com/, type4) they last fine. Mine have 4 1/2 years and 34,000 miles with just a little moisture on the hoses. I usually replace them if I do injectors or at around 5 yr/50,000 mi. If no leaks and...

    Shifter movement

    Some movement is normal as the engine "torques" when throttle is applied thus causing the trans to move as they are bolted together. Unless it is very exaggerated I wouldn't worry to much.

    16x8 or 16x10 8x6.5 wheels

    Thanks, that's what I was thinking. I had 305/75's on the 7 in ones on the truck now and they are a bit to narrow. I just replaced the 305's with 285's for now. Would like to go back to either 305 or 315, so the 8's or 10's would work good.

    16x8 or 16x10 8x6.5 wheels

    Looking for them to allow for 285/75r16 - 315/75r16 tires.

    Zf5 from a 460 truck

    From what I've heard one of the advantages of the gasser trans is a lower reverse. That would be a big plus for me if I had the opportunity to do the swap.

    Fully agree. I'd like to end it in CA.
