    I will brag! 18 in an afternoon. But I cheated with a hydraulic bead breaker.

    Has it always been on those dates?. We have had the Haspin rally in laural, IN, on those dates for the last 2-3 years. Don't remember another event on the same dates. Dennis

    i came home today, only to see ....

    That is very easy to argue with. Ford trucks have never outsold GM trucks. They sell more fords than chevy, or more fords than GMC, but not more than chevy and GMC. I like the pre-1980 fords, and 1988 and up chevys.

    Bed is 14ft, 18.5 ft is with tounge. Don't know the wheelbase of a goat, but think it would be too long.

    M-543 vs H-1000

    Looks like you can replace the ring gear. Wonder how hard it is to find one?

    Rebuild Wheel Cylinders

    Brake drums and hubs are 2-piece, but usually come off as one. You might be able to just pull the drum, but no way to hold the bolts from turning on the inside of the drum.

    Dump Conversion

    Without side boards, a full load of gravel is 7-8 tons. That is overloaded, and all I will put on the truck. Truck is rated for 5 tons on road.

    Head Gaskets/Freeze Plugs....It begins

    Couple of warnings. You may have already read in other threads. Do not rotate the engine with the heads off. The piston sleeves can pop out of the block, and piston can fall out of them. I strapped a piece of wood over top of them so I could rotate the engine and clean the cylinder...

    Upping the fuel

    I will have to look, just using my memory. And my memory is not always right.

    Upping the fuel

    The end of the screw has an allen head inside it, like a set screw. Then you can turn the outside nut by using an allen on the screw. I use a thin set wrenches made for die grinders to adjust. Dennis

    Score: Tree stump (1), mule (0)

    I'm guessing you are trying to remove the needle bearing? Think what he is saying is use the chisel to cut the needle bearing to remove it.

    autolite glow plugs

    Don't know if they are the same, but the autolite's for the ford 6.9 will burn up at 10 sec. I read a review my dad printed off for his truck, the the autolite plugs were the worst ones, they would burn up fast and distort, making them hard to remove. He bought some from michgian that were...

    M818 engine exhaust burns eyes and found a little oil in coolant

    Check the oil cooler, I've heard of them leaking oil in the antifreeze. A search should have something on it.

    Got my 395's mounted (finally!)

    I've driven Gimpyrobb's deuce with 395's, for 100's of miles, and did not notice any wander. Just a softer ride, and leans in the corners.
