Sorry, I had another failed attempt at humor. I didn’t delete my return dip hose on purpose, dragging my tank and shearing off the fitting at Haspin did it, and the truck has functioned fine since. I was just trying to let him know his rotten hose wasn’t his (only) problem. I assumed he...

“Ted’s Tubes” I like it! I think he actually builds them out of old space shuttle parts[emoji6]

FYI, that hose is nice but not necessary. I think I gained 3hp by deleting mine...

Interesting, I just checked and my 8.3 with 7 year old batteries cranks exactly 250rpm according to the tach.

I’m cheap, it’s the drive. I can do the work here in my shop, just imagine another 10k+ square feet you could hide MV parts in. I’ll bet that engine transplant would be done in no time[emoji6].

^ Now theres the guy with all the money! Run the front and rear winch cables up over the top and connect to opposite ends of the truck, turn the lights off, throttle the alternator up, and let the winches eat. You’ll have room for #3 in no time...

You better take a look at the gear ratios of that 4 speed, unless your going to really crank the power on the 8.3 up I doubt you’ll be happy. They are cheap and plentiful, I keep finding them behind a lot of the old road oilers in my search for a new motor for my parts truck.

Awesome price, hopefully as good as they claim. I cant find much for reviews on Sherpas, other than their own propaganda. I’m sure you’ll beat the snot out of it and let us know[emoji106]. If it turns out good, I think I’ll get one and make a dual receiver hitch type mount so I can use it in...

I agree with pp. Also be careful with the tilt deck trailers, with the axle so far forward they can be a bear to get tongue weight on.

Yeh, your one of the only ones that ever take the bait, sometimes you just have to start with the hard questions... Did you reboot your computer... Does it have fuel in it... Did you test your batteries... Doubt we’ll ever learn anymore about his real problem if he’s likely still battling the...

How old are your batteries, and what is your idle RPM at operating temperature?

Drop the top so you can jump up on the hood and do your monkey boy dance. “rat ta tat that azz”

Yep, no chance if their hitch is 2’ higher than yours. Your weight becomes theirs. Maybe hook him to the boom of a M936 or put 20 ton of sand in your bed and hope he wheelies out or tares the back of his truck off...

Are the double overdrive transmissions high enough to compensate for the loss of the od transfer case?

If the venue will allow it, using the hand throttle may help prevent, or control the severity of the wheel hop.

I wish you where closer, I have a stack of road plates, we could put in your bed.

Fish plates where welded to the web. Inner liner is basically another section of smaller C channel frame that fits snug inside your existing frame. It can be made by reducing an existing frame piece or bent up by a frame rail manufacturer to your specs or a local shop, preferably from T1. In...

No. Keep it symmetrical, in the lowest stress area possible (very rear for your camper), get some donor frame rails sections from another truck the same family as yours, have someone who knows what their doing weld them on for you and then bolt inner liner sections in if necessary, and don’t...

Obviously, we will need to see pics...

The rotation will be backwards as well, wont it?
