RE: Help with a cab heater Just purchase a Maradyne 5000, cost 115.00 I will be hooking it in this weekend, I will let you know how it goes.

RE: WMO filter setup idea I love the pride in ownership on this one, just a clean looking package.

I didn't see the NAPA muffler mod yet, so I will add it. Tommy

Roger that, got it, here is the text from the post. Sorry for the confusion. The hose barb on the side near the coolant temp sensor wire is correct. The other one on top is not correct. Move it to the lower pipe plug in the last picture, right above the alternator. A picture of that is here:

I must have miss read that, I thought the one next to it was in the wrong spot, I will go back and revisit it. Any idea what the NPT size is?

Hey everyone, I asked this question in a post submitted by spentshell who was installing a heater, but I think it may have been lost in all the replies and responses. Does anyone who installed a heater know the NPT pipe thread size of the valve that hooks to the top radiator housing and WP on...

RE: agreed I live near cleveland, but am just getting into the hobby myself. wish I could shed some light on this for you. Welcome to SS. Tommy

Well, here near Cleveland, we just got about three inches of snow, and once again, I have run out of time for good weather (not that we ever really get that here) Out of time and now have to work in the cold. Changing the priorities on the projects: (cost/time/investment/weather) Heater...

Do they have photos of Deuces in playboy ?

RE: heater install Does anyone know off hand what the pipe thread sizes are for the heater hose connections to the engine? I never looked that close on mine, but I am sure there are plugs in there. I am going to check out McMaster Carr to see if I can locate the valves. Thanks Tommy

RE: heater install Pictures of the heater hose hook up is exactly what I was looking for, thanks guys for posting the pics and the other links. Now that you have heat, why don't you just go ahead and drive that bad boy to cleveland and let me use it for the winter. lol Thanks every, this was...

RE: Aluminum Ladder Mo, PM sent

Dave, I think thats great, for some reason I was thinking they were younger, but there is nothing wrong with good hard work to earn a buck. Cant wait to see the pics. When are they going for the loads ? Tommy

Army, It's the trip to Cleveland I am worried about, thats a long haul for two young strapping men. That stuff would sure look nice in my cement pad for my pole barn. On a serious note, RESPECT dad's truck, if that rules the day, all will go well and safe. Is it straight stock, or twisted...

Yes, Don't run straight gas for long, as for the recommended fuel.. it isn't gas. Mix what you already have in the tank with diesel, you may want to throw in some WMO to boot. Don't run straight gas unless in an emergency.

RE: Aluminum Ladder Mo, You just got here, are you leaving ???? Tommy

RE: Re: RE: Fuel filters Hey guys, Speaking as someone new to the hobby, and somewhat new to SS. I get a lot of great information from this site when people mention vendors and product by name. I have created a rather extensive folder of green iron related links, but it pails to what I have...

John, thanks for the validation. I think I am going to go down the aftermarket path for this truck. I am not too woried about keepiing this one 100% original as I already did the NAPA muffler mod on it. I am more concerned at this point with useability and functionality. Spentshell, I like...

Dk, Yes, these are the heat exchanger with fan units. I would be ok with an electric heater also but haven't seen anything I thought would work well. I would love to have a stock heater, but the cost is pretty high, and they are far and few inbetween. Tommy

Hey all, with winter at hand, has anyone ever used any of these 24v cab heaters, or can suggest any? http://www.acornproducts.com/catalog/partlist.aspx?CategoryID=239 Tommy
