    Help with lug nuts and wheels

    Thanks. The center bore does not fit tight on the wheels I posted, or on the wheels currently on the truck. The current tire/wheels rub at full turn, and we just don't like them.

    Thank you! There is only one, and it isn’t really dirty which made me believe it went on the inside. My son removed it originally, and thought it came from the outside but wasn’t exactly sure.

    6.9 water pump/pulley help

    Hi. Been fixing a 1987 F250 with my son for him to drive It has the 6.9 IDI. We are replacing the entire cooling system, and almost have it back together. The water pump pulley has a spacer/disk with the 4 bolt holes. I’m ashamed to say that we can’t remember if the spacer goes behind the pulley...
