    Now, that's a lurker.

    Factory smoke

    What worries me is just how easy it was to pull the trigger.

    Fleetside tool box...

    I saw this and read all the posts up to here and had an idea. Everyone has seen those drawers in the kitchen where you push on the door and a mechanism allows the drawer to slide out. Click in, click out. Maybe get around the hinge corrosion issue with some help from the building center...

    Oil pressure sender switch and coolant sender what type of thread sealant to use since your not supposed to use Teflon so it can ground correctly

    Problem shows up when a guy wraps the bejeezus out of the sending unit with tape. A dab'll do ya.

    Factory smoke

    It's your lucky day! Looks like new stock has finally arrived. Now, a little known life hack that just might save your bacon after the unplanned polarity shift was installed. Saves having to convert the system, you can just pour and go.

    Tires Plus says my Dually tires are too heavy to balance.

    Someone wants to sell beads. I ran a variation of this on the steer axle with reasonable success, but your 3+3 isn't class 8. Seems kind of weird of them to say that. Maybe the balancer was broken (drunk) that day?

    ‘87 454 R20 eye watering exhaust w/ windows down

    No joke. The last two years at Rod Run in Ilwaco have left me literally breathless down on the gut. I can't run in that much hc/co in the air anymore and it is my own fault abusing my lungs like I have. So now I'm stuck with having to sit in a lot out at the edge of town where the air is...

    Desperately look for this trim piece

    At first glance I figured it to be some silver colored quick edge. I vaguely remember something like that from the day, but I am not 100% certain. I love learning new things every day. It gets easier the farther along the memory loss progresses.

    Engine cranks, but only starts after letting off key? - I'm perplexed

    The wiring is old as well. Quite within the realm of possibilities that the harness and the connections are getting less than reliable. Just another thought, sorry.

    Hope I find some down in my doors...

    Freeze plugs into the block- how to remove?

    The channel lock method is easy for me, I use a smaller one so I can keep ahold of it. The way the jaws are gives you some built in leverage against the block. Now, try doing this when the engine is installed with all its accessories in place, and it's easy to see why someone would leave an...

    Used a drill to check speedometer forgot I had drill on two and the speedometer spun all the way around

    If it's still reading, it's probably fine. Just don't push your luck.

    Cab leaking

    Don't forget to look up. I was surprised/disappointed when I found this I'm sure I have cowl issues too, because I have the rusty fuse panel and rotted out parking brake cable & lever assembly too. All this to say its not always what you might expect. GL, but let us know what and how you...

    Bvllsh!t on craigslist.

    Best way to run power from truck battery to trailer winch. Quick disconnect ends.

    While what's in the ad is shiny purty I notice they are quick to call out feet length but quiet about AWG of said length wire. If I wanted indestructible, I would find an unwanted welders lead or cable of that quality and go buy me the forklift plug-ins at probably any electrical supply or auto...

    What have you done to your square lately??

    If you toggle between the pictures fast enough it looks like the truck is twerking. Lol

    Best way to run power from truck battery to trailer winch. Quick disconnect ends.

    Without knowing pricing for the necessary materials, that may be a good price. I run something just like it only smaller, called Anderson Power Pole for my bacon radio. It is very similar to the connector for an electric forklift battery. Like what you have here. Just keep it tight up and away...
