So I got my A3 lifted and new tires installed. 4 Inch front 3.5 back, then 255 85R16 BFG KM2's I absolutely love the way this truck looks now!!!! Thanks to Kenny for the info on the tires, apparently BFG does not make these anymore, so I'm ordering another set of 6, walmart has them for 226.00...
I am considering converting my 1031 from a contact maint. truck to a dually shelter carrier. I have been trying to find a dually wheel kit with the front axle adapters and steel wheels to make it into a 1028 dually, but have not had much luck on the internet. If anyone has a source for the...
Ok, here's the story. I just got my 1028A3 running about a month or so ago. I rebuilt a 6.5 and dropped it in with new wellman GP's. I have not driven the truck other than to just do a quick test drive, maybe 5-6 miles tops, I have however started it in the yard a number of times. Fast...
Ok,
Got my 1028A3 going after 5 long years. Problem, when I turn on the headlights, both of the turn signal indicator lights on the dash light brightly, like they would if you were using the flashers or turn signals. ALL lights function normally. . . . turns, fourways etc....

So after 5 years I have finally got my A3 running. I plan on a 3-4 inch lift and am wondering about tire/wheel options. It currently has the 285 16 tires on 16x6 inch wheels. I would like to go to 33" tires if possible, but the current wheels are to narrow, has anyone out there done a swap...

Can have a conversation next to it. . . . .
Can rest my...
Ok, so I've been having an intermittent glow plug relay chattering problem. My 86 1009 would start normally, glow plug system functioning normally when cold, however, after the engine is warm with a brief shutdown/restart, the glow plug relay either would not function or would chatter for 30-60...
I know the kits are all but extinct, but does anyone have the install instructions that came with the kits that the military used to convert the trucks to duals?
Oh, and if someone has a kit just laying around. . . . :drool:
Just a heads up guys, I ordered the Dorman 904-101 kit to replace the lines on my Blazer and this is what came in the box.
I'm not going to bother putting them on. . .
Guys,
I have a problem, I am wondering how guys that put 6.5's in their 6.2 powered CUCV's dealt with this problem, oil cooler fittings on the block, the brass ones are the standard 6.2 fittings, and the silver ones are the fittings that came off the 6.5 that was installed in a 97 1 ton 2wd...
I need a good picture of the vin data plate for a M50A2 water tanker to have one made up. I don't want to try to deal with the MV data plates guy after all the horror stories I've heard.
Thanks,
