Yea if a rad hose from ford lasted me 15 years and the one from Napa that replaced it lasted 15 years I think I’ll spend the 40$ total and get another 15 years. I may buy a second set just in case
No one trusts their wife more then a husband with no other help available.
I needed to get the truck outa the shop to do other stuff. So no brakes no drivelines and away we went. Flatbed not actually attached to anything just sitting on some wood to give a guy room to work.
No damage to...
Had to replace e brake cables cause I was too lazy to figure out how to get them out of the crew cab before it left. But was a good exercise in drum brakes again, as well as getting to coat everything in the tin man sauce cause of course it was rusted together.
No this is a Dana 60 kingpin from my 89 crew cab. I’m still on the fence of regretting not finding a cab for it vs swapping it into the 138” wheelbase truck.
I’ll tell you this. I have the max tow gauges and absolutely hate them. They don’t go dim enough for night time travel. I don’t trust the boost gauge at all. I’ve been from -4 psi under load to 31psi (as turbo with some secret Russ stuff done) so yea. The water temp seems decently accurate and...
Dana 60 ready to go in first thing in the morning. Now into the unknown. I’ve got the sky’s kit to do the swap. Can’t wait to see how it comes together
I got the rear swapped in what a pain to do by yourself on gravel…
Now backed into the shop to get the front swapped.
Apparently pictures are to large to upload anymore…
Corrosion isn’t really an issue with the part of the country I am in. No salt, I don’t go to the beach and often wash the underside with fresh water. Because the guy who has to work on it absolutely hates falling dirt that somehow always finds a way into the eyes.
I also have seat space at a...
So after riding in a truck with no airbox for a little while I can firmly state. The intake noise is unbelievable!
So with that said I have a flatbed on my truck and started wondering about moving the battery’s to the passenger side behind the cab on the frame.
Would you think 4/0 would...
Hey yea William is the one who took it over. Before his death I had some long talks with Russ about taking over a significant portion of his operations to allow more time with his wife. He kept talking how William was pretty well moved in on it. I had done some test parts for him to show I was...
Sorry for not getting to this sooner. But no need to get a new one. Get a used one complete and send it to the damper doctor in California.
Russ had used him many times with great success and not just with idi stuff. Saved me a lot of heartache and damn cheap to
Poor project has been on the back burner, but I got the 90cc slapped in and found my massive oil leak…. Didn’t tighten the valve cover bolts… that’s what I get for coming n going so much on this thing.
I mean if you want to make your investment a little less costly.
You could use a ford starter solenoid and use your ignition source to trigger your battery system to charge the battery either on your trailer or high an AGM up in the bedside. Then run a cheaper larger gauge battery cable to say a...
