    Winch Shear Pins

    :ditto: When recovering anything over 8,000 lbs be sure to always at least use one snatch block, and you'll never have to worry about pins. Be sure the snatch block is loaded "straight" and not "side-pulling", and it will be an effortless pull. The good thing about everyone's response...

    Winch Shear Pins

    This is what I discovered.....the aluminum pins work great, and shear as they were designed....to keep a complete fool from tearing the truck apart. BUT, i'm constantly winching HEAVY pulls, so the aluminum shear pin will not work for me, as I bury my truck DEEP in the mud pits, and i'm always...

    DOD Special Agent wants to see my truck

    Yeah, i'm sure that this is nothing more than randomn act of this guys job.....he will have no intention other than verifying paperwork, and confirming your not a terroist! :D O.k., all jokes aside, this is a common practice for them to do, so don't worry about it, or sweat the meeting. He...

    Update on my lift install!

    yeah, I believe the valve would work correctly in "stock configuration"only, so the idea of the adjustable prop. valve is a great one! That way you can adjust to load and different tire set-up, etc. Good luck with it, can't wait to see the pics!

    Lift gate on a deuce?

    If you do take the liftgate route, be sure to get one that was on a larger truck comparison to the heighth of your truck, as the one-ton lift gates wouldn't reach the ground on a duece!!

    I need a Starter M1009

    Update on my lift install!

    I had the arm on the rear of my 84' GMC -K3500 and when I put a 2" rear lift, I took it off. The next rainy day I was loaded and had to stop, the truck didn't want to!! The front brakes locked up and it slid to eternity! Needless to say, I put it back on after the local repair shop explained...

    Winch cable.

    If you have a "self-winder" model, i'd maybe think so, but if its like mine and just spools as it goes, anything over 200' will probably start "bundling" on top of previous winds and damage the cable (ie. most of the cable on one side). I use mine alot, at least every other day, and you have to...
