I wouldn't mix sizes period. Wes's comment makes me think I might be missing something though.

Do not mix sizes...

If I were going to regularly operate it in cold temps, I'd install a block heater.

Asking the guys at truck stops gets you the commercial truck perspective. It isn't applicable to you. They'll tell you all about needing a wrecker endorsement and a class A... N/A. I'm a minimalist on tools. When I fly and pick up a vehicle I don't bring tools with me. When I drive, I bring...

Thing is, at least on the interstate, there's a whole nother lane for people to pass you with. The smaller roads are more prone for someone to make an unsafe pass. My opinion is the interstate is the preferred option. Daylight hours strongly preferred.

I don't stop at weigh stations. I've done a lot of long road trips in heavy MVs, including an M936A2 from NM to KS a couple of years ago. I did stop at a weigh station years ago when I first started doing this stuff. They stopped me and did a full commercial inspection. Their justification was...

It's less work and a better outcome to go to a thicker spacer between the bed and the frame, or adjust the bump stops. Or don't worry about it. You have to twist it up pretty good to get bed contact. A 4' deep ditch between the road and my field isn't sufficient to cause contact with 16.00's...

I've seen brackets made that mount it transverse across the front bumper. I've seen brackets under the bed. (Out of the way until you need it, then awkward and difficult to reach.) I've seen brackets on the front of the bed, and also on the dropsides. As for me, I can't decide what to do...

Whats your email and I'll send you the release form. Greatly appreciated!

Sprag?

I meant to win a truckload of safes and only won one small one. It's hardly worth the fuel money to go there to get just one - trip cost > total value of safe. Anyone close by willing to grab it and hold it until my next trip? I don't expect free. Cheap would be nice.... In exchange for...

Pulsetech HD pro. And/or solargizer.

IN!!!

It could be construed as collusion and lead to prosecution of those involved and liability to the site owners.

I have this one.... far away and probably in your "way overpriced" category. But late airforce truck with dual circuit brakes. I drove it to KS from NM last spring.

Claim against GP is valueless. Their ironclad guarantee is absolutely worthless. One example of many - machine showed running with oil pressure of 50psi in the auction, when picked up had an empty crankcase and would not run when the oil was replaced. Response- "too bad". Figure that any GP...

There's enough residual oil in the bearings that a few cranks isn't going no cause detectable harm. Thing is, they'll run them with no oil in them also. Ask me how I know......

Specifically, TIG. Possibly MIG with a spool gun.

I have one. I'll be happy to take measurements for you. Probably tomorrow. You still have my number?
