Hahaha what makes them think these things! That is outrageous. I picked mine up for $2,600 and I think it was a great deal for the condition. I still feel that I should find another deal like that one day, but with the way things are now I feel like the days of cheap classic trucks are slipping...
Ordered window weather strip kits in, this winter weather ended up cracking and breaking off a fat chunk on my driver side so now when I’m driving all I hear is a loud whistle from air blowing in. It was driving me nuts so I bought the kit off LMC. Looking forward to the installation, hoping it...
You can start the truck with 7/8 glow plugs working. I had 3 or 4 bad and could still get my truck started in Alaska. Do you have a block heater? That could get you up and running until you find the problem. If it’s the controller I would swap over to a manual gp system and bypass the controller...
I saw a guy on YouTube that wrapped a ratchet strap around the tank and through the top of the jack so when he lowered the tank it stayed put. Looked like a cool trick.
I used to run whatever I could get for cheap but now I have access to Renewable Lubricants Biosynthetic oil and it’s definitely noticeable. If I didn’t get an unreasonable deal on it though I’d be back to whatever tractor supply has again.
I’ve been looking at the 38 gallon rear tank with a sump on classic diesel designs. It’s a kit so should have everything you need for the swap. Come tax season I think that’s who I’ll be buying from.
If you ever find yourself in the same situation later on I'll be a second to Flowkooler pumps looking like quality out the box. Mine has only got 300 miles on it so I can't say too much. But I can tell you that the customer service was phenomenal. Plus I got a cool sticker :music:
I bought my block heater off eBay from a very similar setup. Looked OEM, I can’t remember the sellers name now but it’s been going strong for two years now. Hopefully yours runs true!
Here is a picture that I took when I did mine. I shoved my phone down there in video mode to capture a view of the cam love to make sure it was in the high position.
Please do amigo, after I got stimulated I’m trying to swap over to that 38 gallon rear tank and I’d like put the spare in my bed. I have to travel across the country next year so I’d like to keep my spare in the bed. Does your setup have a locking mechanism?
Under any circumstance, don’t run the N/A? Come on man there’s some nostalgic about driving a big tractor on the highway! When I’m doing 50 up a hill I can safely grab my spitter and change the track on my hank Williams song without worrying I’ve drifted too far
