    Speaking of pink, did anyone here win this on GL the other day? And if you don't know what "hello kitty" is ask my 4 year old girl. It's on everything.

    Starsky and Hutch is dead

    Well today I "showed" my ambulance at a preparedness fair I helped with. It was just something to make the yard look full. It was behind the fire trucks and a real ambulance. Still it made for a few good pictures. I closed up the holes and put the cross on the sides this week. I was able to make...

    M813 has no lights working on the rear, help.

    I could probably figure this out, but I have spent several hours working on the problem and I am hoping there is a common place to look for the problem. Here's the problem and what I know: I have working head lights, front turn signals, and black out lights all over. I don't know about the...

    Lockers

    O K kids, this thread is 1.5 years old, but I think I have lockers in the M813 in the back yard. I lifted the rear most axle and with the drive shaft stopped, I could spin the drivers wheels a few rounds, with some clicking, with the other side stopped, and then, BAM, it stopped and wouldn't...

    New here, M884 how does the 4x4 work

    I, like you didn't know any of this so I bought a factory dodge owners manual on ebay. I read it the other day and it is a very specific procedure and I will have to read it again to remember it. There where several for sale from different sellers on ebay the other day. If I get the chance I...

    M886 parts needed please help

    I have a M886 I can take pictures of for you, but I bet you will have a hard time finding the parts you mention. If you are looking for cover that connects the cab top to the box I think that is made of steel with fiberglass on the inside. Probably very unique. I am confused on what you need...

    Workin on my widened rims

    I hope you mean that's a lot for your budget. I made a set a couple of years ago and spent close to $100 on tube and flap per wheel. $300 is about the going rate for large truck wheels. I saw someone else call $300 for a wheel a rip off in another thread. Price new LARGE truck wheels and you...

    Workin on my widened rims

    For those interested there are several threads documenting this whole process and there is more than one way to do this. It would be nice if we had a forum for just such mods because so many of us are doing this and having to re-invent the wheel every few months because the threads are buried...

    I hate to ask, how do you get 14.00's to inflate on ODIron wheels?

    It actually was. What you didn't see was the dozen or so attempts where we learned how much gap to leave on each side of tire, how much ether to use and where to put it. Here's those leasons in no order of importants: No gap on one side and as little as possible on the other side. We moved the...

    I hate to ask, how do you get 14.00's to inflate on ODIron wheels?

    I pulled them out side after my cousin suggest that. My wife was out but I don't think she thought much of it. She said the video was "boring". Women?

    I hate to ask, how do you get 14.00's to inflate on ODIron wheels?

    Yes they did. It was just a huge gap between the tire and rim. But as promised, the video:

    I hate to ask, how do you get 14.00's to inflate on ODIron wheels?

    AND THE WINNER IS........ETHER!! I am nervious and my cousin has less hair on his arm, but I will post the film tonight on Youtube. It wasn't as bad as I thought, but I still think it is a bad idea.

    I hate to ask, how do you get 14.00's to inflate on ODIron wheels?

    Holy crap, ether. I don't know if my butt can take that. I dig over high voltage power lines and gas mains for a living and I think I have used up 8 of my lives already :cry:

    I hate to ask, how do you get 14.00's to inflate on ODIron wheels?

    I am trying to get my 14.00 XL tires to seat up on the ODIron wheels and I am having no luck. When I say no luck, the tire shop that mounted them couldn't get them to pop up even with 2 cheata tanks. Is there a trick to getting these things to hold air and once they are up, if they leak down do...

    Need some tires asap!

    I google earth'd the location and I THINK this is it. If it isn't, its real close. It is in the general area and it looks like it from the air. 31*29'6.93"N 82*27'4.22"W That's a couple miles below Alma on Number 1. It's across the road from "Pinewalk Ln." In fact if you do a Mapquest search...

    Stock M880 axles

    I see. Both my trucks roll well and the one that runs drives well so I'll look the the parts truck over real good some time this week when I'm caught up with work and get back to you in a day or two with their condition. If we can work something out I might be able to bring them up your way if...
