    Axel boot question

    If it is leaking Fluid there is a axle seal problem.. if its just grease just replace the boot... I like the solid boots.. the zippers tend to let water in.

    problem with oshkosh equipment BEWARE

    And a sales man is not going to tell there "Might" be problems down the road if noting is evident at that time. It would be like when I bought my 2004 GMC 2500 HD new.. the sales man did not tell me "hey the injectors might go out on you 3 times in the next couple years" or "the gauges might...

    problem with oshkosh equipment BEWARE

    Hub Screws

    I have got some blots that fit from ACE and True-value hardware. I do put a dab of RED on my bolts but blue will work too. You can order packs of 12 bolts for under 8 bucks. Google it.

    Cost To Deck Heads & Valve Job?

    I paid $210 for both of mine... decked, freeze plugs, and valves reset in the seats. A thing to remember per the TM... you can only deck the heads two times and a total of .004 also if you take .003 off the heads you have to grind the valve seats the same... The valves must not get any closer to...

    1008 vin question

    question about rear gladhand fitting

    They sell the gaskets I bet for $3.99 lol

    question about rear gladhand fitting

    Its the same.. and it should not be leaking.. there MUST be a shut off valve before the glad hand. If you must remove the glad hand.. pre soak the fittings in PB blaster or your choice of pee for a couple days. That will help insure the line makes it out alive.

    Death Wobble/HMMWV Wheels

    If you have not replaced your king pin bushings and springs along with a new steering stabilizer DO IT! The rims will put more pressure on the joints but it will only wobble if the bushings are worn. Like what was stated above make sure the run flats are taken out/already removed. Spacers are...
