    I'm too tall?

    I'm 6'8, and have to do a couple of mods. Box seat, flip air wiper upside down for better view. As others stated, adjust pedals. When I've driven 800 series trucks, the pedals are too close to the steering wheel. Deuces seem to have more room.

    LSSV: 2005 Chevy Crew Cab, Fl to VA and back.

    Here's a neat video of the G80. I thought mine didn't have a locker, because the tires free wheel in opposite directions when jacked up. It does have it, just wasn't spinning fast enough. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tTGZOJQQBeE And a pic of my civvy version.

    Wow, that's a pain. Can't imagine how relieved you are to have it home.

    Anyone know of 5 lug 16.5 rims for a jeep

    I know ford rims won't fit over the front hubs. Work fine on the back. This is on a 46 cj-2a, and cj-5's from the 50's,60's.

    Slow a towed Deuce?

    Glad to see one of my old threads is still useful. Had to do this couple years ago to recover the M108 from dayton, engine crapped out.

    Check engine light on these is sensitive. I've had it light for stupid stuff. Sometimes just having the batteries out will do it. Read the codes, clear it, and see if it comes back.

    LSSV: 2005 Chevy Crew Cab, Fl to VA and back.

    And EGR blocker plate, easy and cheap. EGR fills up the intake with crap on these motors(just did the heads on my 06, they were nasty) You may need a finger block(I think it is called) so you don't get check engine light. Pump rub kit is 50 bucks on ebay, but you are probably okay for a while...

    Parts trip gone wrong

    Glad everyone's alive. Good thing you were in a full size truck. Not sure why, but I've seen 12 vehicles in the ditch in the last 5 days. Seems to happen when it first starts snowing.

    2014 MVPA National Convention- Louisville, KY

    Thanks SW. Good info to post here. I got unlazy and found the same thing, wasn't smart enough to put it up. Sounds like it's just a parking lot with hookups. We may come down friday afternoon, and leave sunday morning. Has anyone seen the RV sites, and know what they look like? And how...

    Homemade centrifuge/pump V3.0

    Water gets pumped out before filtering, usually don't have any. I figured cost is around 25 cents a gallon on electric cost, but that is an old number. It's probably less now that I have it tuned. Oil is free. I pick it up at a local factory, and I usually have to be in town anyways, so...
