Great looking truck. Love the green :cool:

Use blind aluminum rivets with rivet washers to cover the beat up corners. Mark

Lol Hit the button the same time. Mark

You are in a tough spot my friend. As they stated you can't prove it's your trailer. Did the previous owner have it on the street with a tag? Only thing I can think of is maybe you can register it as a homebuilt? Good luck. Mark

What batteries are you running and what was the voltage of the batteries before you installed them? Don't take for granted that since something is new it's free from defect. Not saying this is the cause of the problem but you have to be mythological I.e. baby steps when diagnosing. Goid luck...

Yes, that one. Don't let the truck beat you. Mark

And don't forget to put never seize on the plug threads. I like the copper never seize as it handle higher temps. Mark

Please don't buy any of the no name Chinese garbage. I have the Wellman and they have the part number stamped into the metal. Mark

Thank you for that answer, at that thickness it should help. Looks great by the way. Mark

What is the thickness of the steel? If it is a light gauge sheet metal it will do little if anything to protect the truck. I like the idea of these as long as the function (protect) as they should. Mark

The Vampire problem comes from the internal transfer case cooling tube. When that fails then transmission fluid fills up the transfer case and pushes fluid out the breather/fording lines and the fun begins. I first found out I had a problem as the air filter housing was leaking a little...

"They can be overfilled on the bench before installed on chassis." Good point ! I've delt with the infamous vampire leak and the oil would be much thinner than normal and the tranny would be low. Check your air filter housing to make sure it's dry as mine had a 1/2 qt of tranny fluid in there...

Oil is dark. You remove the fill plug so air can get in there so the oil will drain out of the dain hole fast. Someone in the past over filled it. I would fill it properly and drive it. I would drive the truck for a while and then hit each of the hubs with a laser temperature gun to make sure...

Mine are just there right now but I do have a new tunable antenna MX-6707/VRC that I will put on my truck as that antenna will work on 2 meters. I'm a Ham. N1FTC MARK

Just park it out in the sun and let time do the rest. I had no issues with problems while curing just paint it on a warm day. 70 degrees or a little above. Mark

Welcome to the derangement zone. Good luck with the search. Mark

I'm a big fan of the behr paints. I'd go with the Satin as it looks better (IMHO), Dirt does not stick to it as it does with flat paints and does not show finger prints or oil smears like the flats can. Anything more than satin shows every imperfection and also shows slight waves in the hood...

If you run a full cycle on the plugs when the engine is hot you will overheat the plugs. Mark

I had many issues with the glow plug system. My biggest problem was a box. The main solenoid got stuck and fried the plugs. PITA. Anyway got everything sorted out and I made a very quick video on how I tested the system. Hooked up a volt meter to the pass rear glow plug (alligator clips) and...
