    I haven’t, not saying it’s a bad trans but of my 6 vehicles, 6 are manual. I’m biased with a strong preference Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

    Tire choices

    I have load range c geolanders on my wrangler and they feel solid on a 4500lb vehicle. My buddy has the same on his 95 f150. I’m a little surprised you say they’re soft as we don’t have issues with the C load range. The only thing worn on my truck suspension/steering wise is the radius arm...

    Tire choices

    Maybe it is the size I’m running but when I returned the toyos and got the bfg’s I figured the shorter wider tire helped with stability of the side wall. Tire barn set these general grabbers at 60 front and rear and I moved them up but they still feel like they’re at 15psi. I’m thinking about...

    Tire choices

    I had Yokohama’s on my wrangler and coopers on my Comanche and liked them but those didn’t have the 3 peak snow flake rating. It’s not a deal breaker but I prefer it When I traded in the toyos the guys at the tire shop were shocked when I told them how they felt. I have a feeling they’ll say...

    Tire choices

    So I feel like I’m fighting an uphill battle with tires. When I got the truck it had radial street tires on the rear and bias ply street tires up front. Felt solid, till the the front right chucked the tread. Decided on Toyo open country A/T based on reviews. Worst sidewall I’ve ever felt!!!!! I...

    Autometer diesel tach

    Their video shows you matching up the tach with engine speed at idle. Would it still be accurate at 3500? Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

    I’m just worried about accuracy with the alternator pulley being smaller than the crank. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

    Autometer diesel tach

    Has anyone used the autometer tach that uses the alternator as its pick up? My 83 doesn’t have a factory tach and I have a gauge fetish or something lol. Here’s a link https://www.autometer.com/2-5-8-tach-5-000-rpm-diesel-4437.html If enough people are interested and no one has experience...

    Vacuum pump question

    You could check it at the booster and see if there’s a leak between it and the firewall. Does all your vents change ok and cruise work? Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

    Vacuum pump question

    Did you check right off the pump or at the brake booster? Was the needle jumping on your gauge or steady? Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

    Around about cost?

    Sagging springs will make the camber look right but I’ve always seen new/good springs on 2wd’s look like what you’re describing Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

    Around about cost?

    That’s just how these 2wd ttb fords sit. My 83 is like that and everything is good up front. Tire barn out here was telling me about a place that will bend the beams to fix the camber but my tires wore evenly, just gotta rotate Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

    Obs ford transmission brake

    The only differences I know of on the 460 vs idi zf5’s was first gear and the bell housing. I couldn’t imagine the brake being different. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
