i dont care for the tank type as they have a pump in them and it give one more thing to go bad .they just dont seem to hold up like the screw in type or freeze plug type does.i think thats why the manufactures run freeze plug or screw in type block heaters.screw in type is basically the same...
recovery4x4 were you able to fine anything off of the tag number from my turbo:?:this is really interesting since it would mean they actually ran three different turbos on the deuce not just two:roll:and this turbo i have seems fas superior to the other based on the boost readings everyone is...
that looks like it but it doesnt whistle .and my motor says ldt 1d on the tag.was the m109 rebuilt in the 90s i wonder if they built them to different specs around that time .and maybe these turbos were a upgrade .or if they did them to lds specs .whats funny about these turbos is the exhaust...
ya go with the 14.5s you'll like the extra top speed to and singles make it easier to turn and are better in most situations .it will accellerate quicker and have a higher top speed with 14.5s then it does with 9.00s since 6 14.5s with rims are lighter than 10 9.00s with rims.
no power steering will be issue .probably not as bad as you think since when plowing the truck will be on snow making it easier to steer.and half the time you are plowing the blade will be on the ground instead of hanging from the front of the truck,the closer you can mount it to the truck the...
i think for most guys the 14.5s would be best .but for the guys that want to do some serious offroading the 15.5s or 395s are best .it.s all about getting what suits you and how you use your truck :-D
in order to compare tires you have to do so at the same pressure to.anytime else and you are comparing apples to oranges.the 14.5s are a good choice they do give you a tire that was run on the trucks while in service.i would use a 12.00 20 tube in them some guys run 14.00 tubes in them .but i...
i wouldnt consider a winch as a cost of something to do with the trailer i would get one on a reciever mount put a hitch on the front and rear of the truck and one on the trailer .that way you can use out wheelin with the truck and if you need to put the truck on the trailer with it you can .and...
donk donk i agree 100%.15.5s or 395s are 10 times better in every situation mud,snow sand dirt rain and everything else i have drivin my truck in .the only way to compare tires is to compare the same size tires same truck same driver same hole.other than that there is to many veriables.until...
also the welded rear and posi in the front is gonna make it hard to turn .and that will put alot of load on the tow bar to .i would go with a trailer for the what if factor when wheelin like what if i break something in the steering what if i break a ball jiont what if i tear up my wheel...
i seriously doupt the truck in his avatar was pulled out with that winch i had my truck equally stuck it took a 12000lb electric winch with two snatch blocks a tri axle sitting on pavement and a chevy truck hitting me like crazy to get me out
i agree tow bars and lifted trucks with big tires ussually dont work out to good.the tow bar should be as close to level as possible and whatever you end up going with should be extra strong as the truck will be more top heavy than the tow vehicle.so that can present a problem to .not to...
right they do have different beads but the way the sidewall hits the bead and lock ring there is no way it can go anwhere .but like i said they arent rated for those rims and do so at your own risk but it is done all the time .and i havent heard of anyone having a problem doing so.i have put...
i have read this thread and dont see how a 17500lb winch can have a 7/16 cable when the stock deuce cable is 1/2 inch and thats only a 10000lb winch.there is a diference between winch rating and line pull rating .the deuce winch has a 10000lb line pull and most of the 10000lb eletric winches i...
ya they are only like an inch wider. you can fit 11.00s 14.00s 15.5s and 395s on stock rims i have my 15.5s on stock rims but they are not rated for it and it should be done only at your own risk .there are alot of guys doing this without any problems
ya i like the look of your truck way better than that setup .i was looking for 14.5s a while ago and they seemed to be the hardest size military tire to fine the only ones i found were so far away the shipping would have been way more than the tires
