    Orlando veterans day parade

    I would like to thank OD FEVER for the invite to the parade. My family and I had a great time, and really enjoyed meeting a few of the SS members that attended. There is a lot more involved than just showing up and driving through. Thanks again and look forward to attending next year, and I...

    Big upgrade at little cost?

    I think that most of the replies that you received were from members trying to protect/help you to not waste your time or possibly damage your engine. As stated- a lot of members on here have a lot more knowledge/experience with the upgrades discussed. Just my 2cents worth.

    What have you done to your 5 ton this week?

    Paints been on the truck for a year and I have power washed it before. It stayed on the body panels, but the paint is really flimsy around axles and shackels, basically the undercarriage. I purple powered everything prior to paint, cause you cant sand all that many parts. We have black inky mud...

    What have you done to your 5 ton this week?

    Power washed the old girl for about 3 hours today, getting ready to paint again for veterans day parade Saturday. This is the last time I use behr paint, peels off fairly easy if you hold wand in one area while trying to remove dirt. I guess house paint should stay on houses.

    What have you done to your 5 ton this week?

    Yes, you would think that with as much redundant things that are incorporated into these trucks that the engineers would have had a better failsafe than, hit the wrong switch now you need a new one. Well, the bendix/haladex chimney is still smoking.

    What have you done to your 5 ton this week?

    Checked my abs ecu and the wrong end came loose, so I spent the next hour or so lining all the pins back into the hard shell connector. I finally got the piece of s77t back together, and no green connector to be found. So, my next purchase is a ecu.

    Help needed to stop me throwing money at my CUCV, Hopping/Vibration

    If I were you I would take it to a front end shop and let them check it out for you. You may end up throwing a lot of parts at it that don't need to be replaced at this time. There are a lot of variables that you described in your write up that can cause problems, like replacing 1 brake line or...

    I want a 5 ton

    5 ton I chose the A2. I have several good friends that own either variant. I was able to drive both the A1 and A2, and the A2 was the clear choice. It made good power through all gears and just seemed to have a better feel to it [maybe it was just me] Not a big fan of carrier bearings, and the...

    Sorry to here of your loss. Sometimes things just aren't fair. You can always replace the ole girl, just pretend it was a legal separation. You'll be owning another before to long, just keep your head up. Good luck on your next 5 ton endeavor.

    Help needed to stop me throwing money at my CUCV, Hopping/Vibration

    Bad shocks can cause a vibration. I had a ford E-150 van come in a few years ago and the shocks were so bad that the right front tire would leave the road at 60mph. It kind of was a basketball effect. We rotated the tires, put on new shocks, and had a smiling customer. The shocks were toast, the...
