    which truck series is the best/most reliable

    Travis, where would the 5th wheel height be after the modifications? Kenny already mentioned that it may end up too high, requiring trailer mods as well. Rick

    Project Shanty: Bolster plus Improvised Shelter equals Camper

    What about the squash? Personally, I would not toss the foam blocks unless they crumbled on removal. It's effective insulation, cuts with a hot knife and installs with a can of spray adhesive. Plus the price is unbeatable. Rick

    Future Steel Soldiers?

    Well, I may be able to afford a Hummer after all.... Any idea what the boss paid for the little jeep? I gotta get my girls interested in creating some greenhouse gasses. Rick

    M35A3 crew cab in GA begins...

    AWESOME! We got dueling quadcab projects operating realtime! Check the classifieds for a pair of doors. I went deep into the ads just this evening and saw a pair for sale. Please don't ask me to go look again! I gotta say, it's hard to pay attention to what you write with your avatar being...

    Scoutsniper you seem to be a good troop. You take our gentle abuse better than most. I expect your study on this board will be quick and enjoyable. The Central American representative of SS wishes you a warm Welcome! Rick

    :ditto: It does get a little weary reading these threads where someone wants to make a pig fly. Thanks for the great post about taking the back road home. Rick

    What does your pyro read at speed?

    Yeah, well wait till DH reads this thread and calls you onto the carpet for the spelling error in your thread title! He will probably post a link to Wikipedia for the meaning of: "dose". Don't worry, he treats us all the same way. Rick

    Front axel boot questions?

    You are not speaking for me! I found the inner thrust washers on the axles were incorrect, probably from a 5 ton because the inner diameters were too large and allowed the washers to flop around on the shaft! Also the seals were mismatched and did not seal. Something about young soldiers...

    Fiberglass Dash?

    3M makes both high tack and permanent spray adhesive that works for purposes such as these. I believe they are known as 77 and 99. Parimedi, have you considered a faux leather vinyl streached over the foam? I'd be worried about the fiberglass in the full sun. Rick

    on the look out for this!

    My only advise for repairing it now is that the pulley is off and in your hands. Fixing it later will be more work. If you put it together now you will be reminded of unfinished business every time you are driving and look at your gauges. Rick

    New truck

    Mark, be sure to investigate the top of that in-tank pump before removing 'cause there's a fuse holder built into the top. A poor connection or blown fuse may cause your observed symptoms. Rick

    The whirly bird looks right at home on the roof of that behemoth. Can you say bug out? Rick

    Wrong trailer for yard work?

    "Yard work" is an insensitive moniker to the multitude of engineers perform maintenance tasks in the outdoors. I thought the correct term was "landscape maintenance"? Rick

    California CDL: Another Clarification (long)

    I admire the fighting spirit, logic and persnickety nature of the lawyer, but the fact is that vehicles over 10,000 GVW and under 26,000GVW need a little more training and care to operate. Mr. lawyer can take his battle to court. I'll take a different path. I plan to study and train for a CDL...
