    Best mud tire?

    I just bought a set of Falken Wildpeak MT 01 tires three days ago. We had snow the next day and they went really well. They should go really well in the mud. Now as for how long they will last? I have no clue yet. I picked them up at WM for $198 265/70-17. They come in other sizes too and...

    Any help dating this lift?

    I am probably wrong but I think those were around 80's early 90's. I think I had a heckethorn steering stabilizer on a truck in early 80's. Heckethorn color was yellow also which is the color of the bushings. Sorry- I just saw honkys response above. He has it nailed. I was going by my memory...

    Ball joint ?

    I put Moog ball joints on my truck and IIRC I had to take one back and get a replacement because something wasn't right when I opened the box. I think the boot was bad or something. Sorry its been too long ago. I figured they were definitely better than the Chinese lifetime warranty crap that...

    oh my god, broken adaptor 4 speed muncie to np203 t-case, new '74 chevy k20

    I had a 465 mated to a 203 years ago. It came only in 1974 model trucks. I sold it and switched to 465/205 combo later. I can't remember what I did as far as changing driveshafts though. I think I had to have a new rear one made and the front one cut but I am not sure. I would suggest switching...

    Help stop theft 87 V10

    George is right guys. FWIW- I, along with most of you, would be mad as hell if some lowlife POS stole my truck. I don't care what color, weight, handedness, None of that BS and I suspect that it wouldn't matter to you guys either. It is the thought of somebody stealing something that is dear to...

    Help stop theft 87 V10

    If you are really serious, you could hide an old smartphone under the dash. It could be hardwired in and the locator app turned on. They may steal but keeping it is a different story. Of course you would have to add another line to your existing plan but it would be a good way of keeping track...

    Tow Trucks, Wreckers and Car Hauler Discussion

    I know a guy that used to deliver bodies to the state medical examiner's office as a side job. In any event it was over an hour's drive to get there. He drove a white station wagon with black tinted windows. The body would be in a body bag strapped to a gurney. On one of his first trips down he...

    What have you done to your square lately??

    I bought a set of 36-12.50 Swamper TSL's mounted on polished aluminum slots. They are bias ply but are almost new. They still have the excess rubber flashing between lugs. I have been polishing the wheels.

    400 sbc build

    :popcorn: I think this topic has been discussed and argued, before. Just saying. I am going to sit back since I commented on the last thread that had this similar question in it. I am also pretty sure the same guys weighed in on it as well. BTW- Rich do you have a computer program that can...
