    FNG-Of-The-Day

    There are a few questions that need to be answered before too much advice can be given. Do you have any experience driving large trucks, in excess of 10,000 lbs? What is your mechanical knowledge/ability? Did you preview the truck before the purchase? Do you know if the truck runs? Is the...

    Homemade centrifuge/pump V3.0

    I'm not in Arizona, but I would say that there is probably a road fuel tax in place. As a matter of fact, I found this: Motor Vehicle Division States in general don't like when you find a way of keeping some of your own money.

    sae 50w oil

    I don't think it's necessarily a sign of any issues. I think it just depends on the truck and your driving style.

    sae 50w oil

    Looking at the lubrication order 9-2320-209-12-1 from 1983, it calls for 80/90 GO. I don't see any mention of 50W for the transmission or transfer case.

    DEUCE AIR LEAK

    I just picked up two from Feebay. I'm hoping that I can use one for the gauge that's got a slight leak, and one for the front axle switch that has the same leak. I'll post when I get it together! {fingers crossed}
