    What did you do to your deuce this week?

    I did it with a 2 vice grips and a set of channel locks. The first one took me about 30 minutes to get on, the 2nd less than 5. If I had small vice grips that didn't weigh much I would have been even better off. Just something to think about for next time.

    Muffler on a turbo

    I have the biggest and quietest muffler I could find that supported the air flow needs without too much restriction. I love it. I can now idle the truck in the driveway and it is no louder than my cummins dodge was. It has made my truck actually driveable as I hate vehicles or anything else...

    Another Muffler Thread - The one I chose and why.

    I'm fully aware that I will hear a bunch of new noises once I can drive the thing without hearing protection. One thing at a time.

    Another Muffler Thread - The one I chose and why.

    That is the muffler I have, and the part number listed in my post. I would have to put a top on the truck for it to make a big difference. But I will be looking at ways to quiet it down more once it warms up and I start driving it more.

    ....So I spoke the the Indiana BMV Yesterday and Today....

    Can you legally drive an airbrakes truck without a CDL with airbrakes endorsement? I thought the answer was always no.

    Another Muffler Thread - The one I chose and why.

    This muffler is massive. More to come when I install it. Also other mufflers cross reference with this one, but from what I have found they are the same in physical dimensions only. They are all straight through and therefore would not have the same sound reduction.

    Another Muffler Thread - The one I chose and why.

    I had 2 goals when adding a muffler 1. As quiet as possible. 2. Not choking the engine so much that I burn something up. The first step was figuring out the CFM of the exhaust. I used this from donaldson's website to figure that out...

    Another Muffler Thread - The one I chose and why.

    I wanted a muffler on my M35A2 because its just too **** loud. Talking to a passenger is impossible and my ears hurt for a while after a long drive. I wanted 2 things: 1. The most sound reduction possible 2. Not adding additional restriction to the exhaust. From what I have read the engine...

    Suggestions on Large Tire Balancing...???

    Good to know. I'm planning on using slime in my next tires. Do you know if coolant would would work? That wouldn't freeze either.

    Suggestions on Large Tire Balancing...???

    Used engine oil? Is there anything in the oil that would eat the tires? I did it about 7 years ago on a set 37" military tires I have and I still haven't had any issues with them. Hello to free.

    Some thoughts on your bearings when hub flipping.

    Getting these races out without damaging them is easy, the hubs are built for it. Just as the other 2 people said flip the races with the bearings. It is what every how-to post on the subject that I have ever read says to do, and what I will be doing in about a month.
