    Winter front alternative

    Let me start by saying I cant stand the look of the OEM winter fronts for our trucks, but at the same time I definately see the need for something to restrict the air flow to the radiator. I have been using a piece of plywood I painted black, and it is not very noticeable. Problem is its all...

    My 1st trip to Memphis Equipment

    Thats what I always thought, why I was shocked by my experience with them. I dealt with Melanie and found her to be very helpful. on ebay they sell under the name of mecoparts And to be honest I didnt even win the steps. I only bid $11 and was outbid. When I saw they went so cheap I just...

    Transfer case air cylinder leaking

    Thanks Bill, that looks like a complete cylinder kit. I just emailed the seller to see if he would sell me one now. His last 2 auctions for that item ended with no bidders so dont see the harm. *edit Just found this for a better price. Looks like same thing. The entire cylinder cheaper than...

    Transfer case air cylinder leaking

    yes, kinda like a sideway V. I put the open end of the V facing the air supply so it would expand it between the cylinder wall.

    Transfer case air cylinder leaking

    Well this sucks, After spending most of the afternoon getting that little booger off, replacing seal/washers and putting it back on... it still leaks!!! Actually worse than before. The cylinder walls were scored and pitted so I polished up with some 1500 grit paper. Guess I took to much...

    M35 block heaters- who was selling them?

    I would buy from Westfolk, you get experienced tech support for your exact application that way. Regardless make sure to mount in the lower hole. If you have a cab heater move your heater return line to the upper hole and put the block heater in its place. This is what Westfolk reccomends, so im...

    Transfer case air cylinder leaking

    Well I tried adding oil to the air line that feeds the cylinder, hoping the seal had just dried up. Helped a little but not much, still leaks. And I was looking forward it to driving to work tomorrow in the snow we are supposed to get tonight. Since the compressor does not shut off while its...

    Transfer case air cylinder leaking

    My air shift cylinder appears to have an internal leak. Whenever I engage it air blows out of the vent on top of transfer case. It is bad enough that truck air drops to 60 psi when engaged, and compressor never shuts off. Is this something that can be rebuilt or does it need to be replaced...
