    What did you do to your trailer today.

    I've had this 'ol gal for about a month now, this was the solution to convince my wife to get rid of the extra vehicles and get into a Traverse...this gives her the pickup bed capability, tho I'll prob use it more. Already been a workhorse getting the astronomical amount of pine needles hauled...

    Handbrake adjustment help M101A2

    The internal adjustment screw is probably rust locked as mine was. Spray the snot out of it from underneath with PB or your penetrant of choice over a few days then try to turn them back & forth...may need help from a pair of channel locks or the type. Once you can get it to turn a lube hole...

    Got my MEP-803 in today!

    Forgive my ignorance, but in another post about a fella choosing the right unit Light in the Dark made it very clear that the 802/803 units didn't have the smarts to be able to be paralleled, only the larger units could do that trick. Sent from my SM-G970U using Tapatalk

    Some of those items are self explanatory, but would you mind elaborating what the individual parts are like say left to right? Sent from my SM-G970U using Tapatalk

    LB7 swap... anyone done this?

    I have my eyes set on an LQ4/4L80E/241 swap into mine. The LS platform outperforms the SBC/BBC platforms with ease. Sent from my SM-G970U using Tapatalk

    LB7 swap... anyone done this?

    Fair caution, the LB7 comes with it's own issues...imperfect machine built by imperfect humans...just like the 6.2/6.5L. I have a LB7 in my Silverado, and they're great motors...shy the injectors headache. Support and mods abound since soo many were made. Having a quality tuner is critical in...

    002a fuel line replacement

    If a professional hydraulic shop built a suitable replacement from an original sample, I'd send it. Keep the old one for a little while just incase something happens to the new one. Most lift pumps I'm aware of run in the 8-15 psi range (except Ford @ 45-65) so unless your gem has a pissed off...

    Advice needed. Which genset for off grid?

    Well crap. Now I'm gonna have to go kill the MF who taught me wrong. My bad, sorry coach. Atleast the idea was sound. In this thread a fella talks about the smaller 3rd generation units came with the smarts to parallel where the 802/803 were lacking...

    Advice needed. Which genset for off grid?

    Guyfang jogged my memory (actually disappointed I didn't mention it before) from the post about the M1101 trailer discussion. KTMguy, this is the best of both worlds for everything that been discussed in this thread... A PU (power unit) is a single generator running all by its lonesome, a PP...

    Advice needed. Which genset for off grid?

    I start with the manufacturer's specs which guides me to a bit. Then the stuff you quoted has some variables that have nothing to do with the OP asking for help. Like I said, I yeild. Sent from my SM-G970U using Tapatalk

    Advice needed. Which genset for off grid?

    I'm going to agree to disagree. My stuff obviously comes from a different place than your stuff. No sense in writing novels that won't change anything in the end. This was supposed to help a guy decide how to homestead off grid, not the finer points of debatable physics. I yield. Sent from my...

    Steering stabilizer bolt broke?

    No stabilizer in the world is gonna stop death wobble...gotta find the source, and that can be maddening. Shouldn't be bad with that front end...1000 times worse with a 5-link setup. Sent from my SM-G970U using Tapatalk

    Steering stabilizer bolt broke?

    If it's new with the stabilizer, call the manufacturer and warranty it. When I added one to my 03 Suburban, I had to get the bolt from the dealer since it wasn't included in the box. An offroad shop like 4wheel Parts should have it too. Sent from my SM-G970U using Tapatalk

    Advice needed. Which genset for off grid?

    Coug, I'm tired so hope I get my words right...ya can't examine kw load for fuel usage comparisons. Since we're comparing a nearly identical 2-cylinder to a 4-cylinder...at idle 2 vs 4 of the same size pistons will use the proportionate amount of fuel, same holds true for at rpm...1800 rpm is...

    Advice needed. Which genset for off grid?

    I'm with the other fellas...gotta calc your max load. That will tell you what you need. If it's less than 5kw stay with the 802 because as already mentioned the 803 is gonna burn roughly double the fuel and if you don't give it enough of a load the wetstacking fairy is likely to visit. I...
