    I had the same exact failure.

    Bed ramps

    You can get 8+ foot ramps from most utility trailer dealers and they are more than wide enough to load a jeep. I would suggest anchoring them to the truck while in use though. Definitely a 2 person job to load a vehicle into something that high off of the ground and I would recommend that you...

    Help Stuck!! Trying to help came back to bite me!

    My buddy never got around to downloading them off of his phone. The pictures I took with my old film camera are on page 5. I think SS Member Barnyszoo also took some pics or video but I never got a copy.

    Gov Liq Generator Working Ratio

    One of the 2 mep-018as that I bought worked for me right from the get go. Granted the the crank case had 2-3 quarts of water in it because the dip stick was missing and it sat for years like that out in the weather. The other one just appears to need magneto parts.

    NAPA m-35 parts?

    I don't think your going to find rocker box gaskets for the Continental OA-331 at Napa but then again I've been wrong before. If your up to cutting your own McMaster-Carr has bulk cork material McMaster-Carr or you could try a place like Olson's Gaskets

    CUCV Mud & Snow Help Please.

    I would look at the Interco super swamper LTB series or Denman ground hawgs and have them siped at a shop or do it yourself. Tire Siping It makes a noticeable improvement in traction with mud tires on wet or icy pavement. It also lets the tread flex and conform better while driving off road...

    Have you ever tried the system with the nozzle on the inlet side of the compressor or are you worried about blade erosion?

    P51 down at Reno air races

    The same thing could of happened to a new modified aircraft with a 30 year old pilot, age has nothing to do with it. Racing is inherently dangerous and that will never change. In my opinion the single biggest improvement that they could do is move the race course further away from the stands...

    Painting Diamond Plate Aluminum

    That will cause Hydrogen embrittlement and eventually lead to cracking. Wash with soap and water, etch with alumaprep 33, apply alodine chem film, prime with zinc chromate or exoxy, and then top coat with your favorite color. I'm surprised that people are recommending that you media blast...

    Bigler Boyz Crew Cab M35A2

    Theirs have rubber or poly bushings as opposed to tractor link ends. The poly bushings deflect when the two different length links that are @ two completely different angles cycle up and down. This helps keep from destroying the links, weld tabs, frame and or axle housing. If each busing...

    You need insurance, a one day operating permit from the DMV and the correct class drivers license. Use the forum search, theirs lots of good info pertaining to this topic already on here.

    Bigler Boyz Crew Cab M35A2

    lol I suspect that the tabs will rip themselves off of the cross member or the axle in a short order. I just hope they don't fail in the pole vault direction.:doh: I think the rest of it is cool.

    ***Normal operating temp 2.5 Rockwell***

    That article had some good info in it. I don't think you can go wrong with either the Amsoil or Redline. Amsoil is a Poly-Alpha-Olefin type oil which is slightly les durable than redlines polyester formula but their both great oils. Either one is good for at least 100000 miles between...

    ***Normal operating temp 2.5 Rockwell***

    Well my logic behind that is that mineral based oils break down rapidly above 285*f and that the extreme pressure and wiping action at the contact point of the gears can easily raise the thin layer of oil separating them another 100*+ causing the oil to fail and galling of the gear teeth. Yes...

    ***Normal operating temp 2.5 Rockwell***

    I would consider 200*f the safe limit. What type and viscosity oil are you running?

    Injector return line

    Sounds like you used Polyethylene tubing. What you want to look for is Nylon 11, It's sold under the brand names of Nylo-Seal and Nylaflow. Usually it can be found in translucent white or black. Nylon is compatible with a wide varity of chemicals including gasoline, diesel and engine oil...

    Front axle seals and boots stepXstep

    In addition to what DieselBob said after drilling the broken bolt heat the imidate area around the bolt with a torch or throw the hub in the oven @350 for an hour or so, then while its still hot apply penatrating oil to the broken bolt. The heat thins out the oil helping it penatrate the...

    lug wrench ?

    Had a bad experience with them recently. One of their vendors had the bright idea to commit wire fraud using my personal info. They opened an account in my name and started charging things to my debit card. So on that note I wish you good luck.
