Say.......... what engine is going to be in that thang?

Stan’s Headers. Www.stans-headers.com

Yeah my windows were hard to operate after I rebuilt them. I used some dry lithium lubricant in the channels and that seemed to help. Can’t remember exactly what I used, heck it’s been years. They seem to be better now after up and down numerous times. Your A/C freezing up is due to an improper...

That kinda reminds me of the gas tank on Peter Fonda's motor sickle.

Nice work John. I wish I had that thang.

So........ what happened to the engine swap vehicle?

In my opinion, your easist swap, and to gain power, will be a later model 6.5 turbo diesel. Everything will bolt-up just like the 6.2 without modification, except for the turbo exhaust and plumbing. This engine will bolt-up directly to your original TH400 transmission, however most folk opt...

Outstanding again! Thanks!

Outstanding. Thanks for your time and effort to prepae and provide this. Extremely helpful.

Rick - I really like your pegboard set-up on the wall and how neatly you have arranged all your precision tools. I wish I could get mine looking that good.

Sounds like you are in Dire Straits.

Rick; I am curious to know the approximate costs to ship a vehicle overseas. Is there a special insurance rider required for the transit? Are there companies which specialize in such transits? Glad the vehicle is going to a good home. If my gunite swimming pool had not broke, the M1009...

Outstanding. Thanks.

I give up.

I will jump in here for a bite. I joined Steel Soldiers many years ago to learn from the more experienced members, and to share my experiences after I learned from them. I am still learning and sharing as this is being written. That is the beauty of this forum, as most anything can be...

If you haven’t done this sort of thing before, I recommend taking Rick’s advice and take the vehicle over to him. In my opinion it will be the best money you will ever spend on the truck. Just my 2 cents.

Well duh, stupid me. Say, where did you wind up getting those shims?

Yeah I had that same issue when I installed 4" shackle flip and zero-things. I solved the issue by cutting the tabs off the tube and rotating them (both left & right) up on the tube and then re-welded them. After I got it done I then realized that I had also moved things up high enough so that...

Hmmmm.... The article stated that several drops-per-gallon are required. Guess I was doing it wrong all those years. Glad I never had an occasion or need to disinfect while in the mountains. Thanks for posting that.

I didn’t feel the aluminum would be strong enough to support the combined weight of all the gauges and thermocouples. Plus the aluminum doesn’t crease very well when forming in the press. I may be hanging more stuff off the panel in the future such as cb radio, back up camera screen, etc. just...
