    52" XZL Tires on MRAP's will they interfere with power assist?

    Thinking about getting some 52" xzl's for my bobber project. Was wondering if they would interfere with the air assist steering. Mainly the air cylinder on the pitman arm? Also would they rub on tight turns? Thanks all for your insight.

    Air Compressor Test

    I'm trying to test a compressor on my deuce. Currently no belt on compressor. I spun the pulley with my impact gun but did not feel any air pressure out of the main supply line. Should I feel pressure? It doesn't make much of any type of noise when I spin it by hand. I can spin my shop air...

    Driveshaft question

    I am going to have my drive shaft extended. My question is: Can I use the back driveshaft (the small one)? Is it the same as the front driveshaft just shorter? If I can have the back one extended I can keep my other original if I need to use it on another truck. How about cost to extend it...
