    max HP out of a 465 multi fuel?

    I would base my decision, if i ever do it, is cost. Dodge intercooler, even used isnt cheap. Dont know about other coolers. Plus you will reroute charge tubes, add more clamps and hoses. "A to W" cooler brand new is 200, plus a little pump and some coolant hose, and as long as you monitor...

    Perfect Backspacing?

    395s and when I brought the wheel bending issue up to Longs Wheels, they said that they have not even heard of that. So you never know what to believe anymore. A guy posted awhile back about his one piece rims and havent heard if he had any issues mounting the tires.

    Perfect Backspacing?

    Has anyone decided what the perfect backspacing would be for the m35a2. I will be ordering custom one piece rims, and can get any backspace. I will probably be doing a 20X11 on 395 tires. I dont care if hubs are flipped or not... What do you guys think looks best, since the bed sticks out a lot...

    max HP out of a 465 multi fuel?

    Why not add one of these water/ air intercoolers and just leave the stock intake manifold the way it is? Front Mount Intercooler Would this be easier, cheaper and more effective then a intercooler. Just have a small radiator in front of the stock deuce one. All you need is water/ air cooler...

    Hemtt rims VS. stock deuce rims for 395s

    since Gimpy bumped this, I want to let ppl know there is an alternative to these overpriced hemtt converted wheels. Call Longs wheel out of florida, I got an over the phone quote for 20x11 wheels at $235. Any lug pattern and any backspace. Also shipping was 410 ish for 6 wheels. About 68 a wheel...

    PNW-2011-Third Annual Chehalis River Valley M/V Convoy&Campout

    I hope to make it this year. Have a good size list of things to do to my deuce before it is road worthy. Thanks for the invite WSUcougar, I wouldnt have known about it until your PM.

    Pin up art on a deuce.

    I think you are talkin about what I have been thinking of... Is the pin up girl incorporated into the camo pattern. I was thinking of doing a couple trucker ladys and maybe a grenade outline that is hidden in the camo colors. Is this what you are referring too??

    Deuce air cleaner modifiacation W/LDS engine

    X2, I was told to not run any oil on the filters if you are using them on your diesel trucks. If I find the info to back it up I will post it, otherwise I would just run the filter and clean it more often. Check with AEM they are a common source for intakes on the newer diesels, if the install...

    Check your fuel pump!!!

    Oreillys has submersible fuel line, special order and it is only 12" long. About 20 bucks or more. I dont know if it compatible with diesel though. Part # : 27093 List: Search for 'submersible fuel' | O'Reilly Auto Parts I also only ordered 5/16ths, they may not have anything bigger, sorry...

    srodocker's "little" project

    ttt No it looks fine, its just a single axle. Will work fine for what you want. I was thinking of stock deuce bed on it with a hydraulic dump but is would need a 2nd axle though. Ill be keeping an eye on the build. I need to go back down to see Brad again. Money is burning a hole in my pocket.

    WMO a different way to filter!

    So I didnt have sound when I watched the video. How much air psi are you using or what is required to get the oil through the filters. If it isnt that much pressure, I am wondering if a 55gallon drum could be pressurized to push the oil out through filters and into another 55 gallon drum...

    Red Barn Customs L.L.C

    Longs and marsh racing were the cheaper ones, but both pretty far away. Ill call Longs again and see if they will work shipping with me, but they didnt last time I call. Stockton in cali wanted 350-400... Anybody else have resources for cheap wheels. Maybe I should start another thread?

    Red Barn Customs L.L.C

    Shipped to my door? Tack on at minimum 30 dollars a wheel. I think you guys have more sources then we do that is why I may sound a little bitter. When I first bought my truck, I thought I remember seeing stock hemtt wheels new for around or under 100 bucks.

    Red Barn Customs L.L.C

    plus shipping etc. Not many advertise there good prices. If I could find local rims converted I would have bought them. I wont pay around 200 for hemtt rim, no valve stem, then another 100 for conversion, whether weld in or bolt on, plus shipping on both items. Thats more then I paid for my...

    Yukon Lockers. Found a good deal.

    With lockouts there wouldnt be any force on the gears all the time. Highway driving would be solely off of the rear rear axle. But I understand what you guys are saying.

    Red Barn Customs L.L.C

    I am just anxious to hear, because I have HEARD of the rims bending trying to get those thick ass tires on them. I think Hemtt wheels converted have become over priced and this is why I will shop other places.

    Yukon Lockers. Found a good deal.

    Wouldnt this be a good setup.... Locker on rear rear axle Welded front rear axle welded front axle Lockouts on front and front rear axles. Trying to figure the best way to spend the 1000 bucks or so. Lockers on all axles would be good, but would it make driving a little more complicated. Both...
