    What did you do to your deuce this week?

    And looks good doing it! That is a good looking bobber with all the work it takes to cut down a drop side bed.

    77' Jeep M35A2 leaking hubs in the front.

    Not if you have the newer style cross type of U joint. We only need some grease on the ball and claw older type.

    zipper boot replacement

    Lets start with the retainers I like. I had tried the straight wire ones and they can cause the rubber to bunch up just as it comes together. I like the ones in the pic that have what I will call the slider or shield up by the screw / nut. Now the one with a control number and manufacture number...

    zipper boot replacement

    Problem with that is there is more than one type of what we call rubber. Some do better than others when exposed to petroleum product. I do not trust any thing from China for our boots. A simple Google will tell you that Petroleum products will cause some rubber to break down way too soon. I...

    PURest Air Dryer constantly purging/leaking

    Problem with that is if not cleaned or fixed it will just happen again. Wonder if some Cat compressors just spit out more junk than others. I have not had any problems with mine but I have no hours on it. Sold the truck just waiting for the man to transfer title before I let it out of my yard.

    Torque stick or torque wrench

    I have a math block so I need my four way or the torque wrench. Also need to find work for the torque wrench as the cost of it was not cheap.

    PURest Air Dryer constantly purging/leaking

    Forget what model but check valve can cause that. Something about air up the system shut down truck remove the pressure line off compressor or dryer see if air dryer is leaking air from the wet tank back through the air dryer. If it is compressor unloader is staying open because of that back...

    NHC 250 questions

    If I remember the 939 series had a check valve installed in the return line that needs to work . Is your truck 809 or 939 series?

    Saw this on the back of a flat deck in Regina Sask.

    I like the helipad on top of the cab.

    NHC 250 questions

    Well there is a cleanable screen filter in the PT. There is a screen filter on the in coming injector ports. Most of the time if one of the 250 I was running poor I had the PT rebuilt. Also checking all rubber fuel lines and if I remember pick up tube can have problems. If you had a gage that...

    Torque stick or torque wrench

    How long is you bar? I dragged out my old four way and measured my bar and it was four feet. I used this before I got the torque wrench. I did not jump on it just pulled down nice and easy not even using all my strength but a good pull. No sense popping the family jewels when I do not have to...

    Yet another engine oil and diesel fuel thread

    Robo McDuff I would say yes. All though I push the aftermarket additives I will say if I find some 2 stroke oil and since I no longer really use it I dump it in any truck that is close. I even find unopened 2 stroke bottles at my recycle trash dump on the pallets and I grab it no problem.

    Torque stick or torque wrench

    I do not think you need a 6 foot bar and someone to jump on it. As a matter of fact I know you do not need a 6 foot bar and someone to jump on it to put on the lug nuts. I have a reversible torque wrench and we need reversible because of the lefty tighty thing on the drivers side. Also I am 180...

    Yet another engine oil and diesel fuel thread

    Myself I like to hedge my bets so I will go with the additives. If nothing else you should be using the 2 stroke oil for lubricity. I spend 10 times the amount of the cost of the additives renting movies from Amazon sitting in my recliner every month. Good thing I do not drink a alcohol or it...

    Grabbing brakes

    I am still running engine oil in my 915 and it takes more than a few miles for my Trans. gage to even come up to below normal. It will go to normal when trailer is hooked up or running in town stop and go. You said you loaded it down an it seemed to shift better maybe you got the oil up to...
