No hanger bearing on your truck, Haifisch, your driveshafts are too short. Plenty of places for metal-on-metal rubbing sounds, from the hood not having the leather strips in front so it rests on the metal grille, engine side panels not having the rubber stops and chafing and rattling as a...

People are People and that guy with the 5ton apparently really needed your batteries, badly. I hope your new ones will last a long time and the ones in the 5ton might go dead anytime.... Sent from my SM-G991W using Tapatalk

I would say that road-tripping a Deuce on 9.00-20 requires a special form of self-hate. I have done it and really appreciate the taller 11.00R20. You'd think it is not "much of a difference", but, yes, it is! I highly recommend doing what the military ended up doing with many of the Deuces, and...

What @HDN said ! There are likely layers and layers of paint on those threads. It still is a good workout for a 3/4 impact wrench. I also recommend new 20 inch o-rings and coating them in vaseline or white grease before installing. It is frustrating to put it all together, tire and all, only...

Best of luck wih the recovery! Please keep us updated!

Methinks that, if the engine started fine beforehand and the HH was not messed with, it is unlikely that, all of a sudden, the HH is no longer producing enough pressure. I think "HH wear" is a bit of a red herring at this point. If there is no crud in the set screw seat I don't know if I would...

Nice looking rig! I am sure you are making an upgrade and maintenance list already! Sent from my SM-G991W using Tapatalk

Waiting for the report back that violence and raw aggression fixed the problem!

@7Dust for what it is worth, my in-tank pump cranks out about 7-9 psi. Not that it would make much of a difference, as long as it moves fuel.

I had a pesky oil leak where the spin on adapter meets the block. Only torquing the retaining nut way above the specs fixed that. I have a spin on filter that leaks unless it is torqued ape-tight. the second one is fine. Go figure.

I am only mildly jealous! No MLVWs here in Ottawa.....well.....none that are buy-able.

Not sure what it is, but it looks like something John Rambo would use to drag dead enemies out of the forest! Polaris? Sent from my SM-G991W using Tapatalk

Good effort! I nevertheless echo what was said before.....consider replacing the inserts. The consequences of a dog bone falling off while on the highway and the axle tilting, potentially shearing a U-joint etc. are likely ingredients for a bad day. I decided to feel the pain only once, took a...

How did you make out? Sent from my SM-G991W using Tapatalk

That roof is exactly the right combo of sophisticated and crude looks that makes it appear bone stock! You certainly know what you are doing when fabricating; "luck" had little to do with the outcome; this looks very well and precisely made. The cab interior roof HAS to be blue, because who is...

Also wanted to say that the REB kit for the front axle is a desirable upgrade. The sprag works, especially when the operator understands it and avoids "wind up". However, the REB converts the automatic engagement to a purely mechanical engagement with a lever. Prior to the air shift transfer...

I am not a gasser expert - other on this site are - but the ones I have seen had the standard "car" like shift pattern. The wonky shift pattern for the multifuel came out of necessity for an OD gear for the lower revving engine. Stands to reason that, as gassers got parts replaced, they were...

I see that the data plate with the shift pattern appears to be showing the multifuel shift pattern (both 3 and 4 away from the dash). Sent from my SM-G991W using Tapatalk
