What is this vertical bar tow hitch?
Huh fair enough. I’d figure the small diameter/bend radius isn’t ideal for attaching a strap but not heavy duty- rreegg

Headlamp relay harness update or improvement.
Installed the Bronco Graveyard harness around a year ago and it's been good. Think the difference in headlight brightness is slightly better but not super noticeable, I have LED fogs which were my solution for brightness issues... but the relay install is still worthwhile for wiring/electrical...- rreegg

Tap size + cleaning threads + steering zerk
Couple years ago I replaced some steering components and needed to change from a straight zerk to 90* in one spot. The original threads got kind of buggered out as the 90* was a bit bigger. The zerks I have no longer thread cleanly into place I don’t know enough about tap sizing to determine...- rreegg

1994 F350 IDI Turbo help
Welcome and awesome truck. I'm assuming there is an automatic glow plug circuit on this truck and as I have no experience with them will let others chime in. Mine came with a manual push button GP, which is frequently recommended on here to give the driver more control over GPs. You will likely...- rreegg

Tach cutting in and out
Somehow missed this before suggesting TCM before. Are there codes from the trans by chance or a way to isolate/test things? For sourcing other members have purchased on eBay, some say maybe Oreilly (call for availability even if online says no stock) and rock auto has a refurb for sale. The...- rreegg

Tach cutting in and out
Im not familiar with the auto trans but from other threads the trans control module may be worth looking at. (Think that’s the TCM?) https://www.oilburners.net/threads/is-this-the-cause-of-my-intermittent-tachometer-issues.94564/#post-1159683...- rreegg

Banana car (truck)
Recently found out about this banana rig and turns out the chassis is a '93 F150. It was spotted around WA state this past weekend during world cup events. Read a separate article about the owner/driver being pulled over very frequently because officers want to take a picture - they get him for...- rreegg

While the truck sits unused.. can I/should I soak the cylinders?
A month shouldn’t make any difference but batteries will probably be the first thing to deteriorate. More so in the winter than summer I think- rreegg

1965 Mercedes-Benz 190Dc Fintail Diesel Project
Glad to hear an update on this and things are coming along. A coworker has a '63 coupe with the gas engine, he's the second owner after his father purchased it new. Always thought these old MBs were mighty classy. Think the gas engine might be mechanical fuel injection? When this thread was...- rreegg

Putting a turbo 6.9 IdI
I don’t think the power stroke turbo is viable based on previous times this has been asked - you are welcome to prove us all wrong though. Easiest to just use an idi turbo and save the time/money/fab efforts and sanity for other projects Good luck and double turbo would be awesome- rreegg
