If you buy a set of lockout hubs for the front axle, and install the 2 drive flanges that you had to remove to install the lockout hubs, on the forward tandem rear, you will change to behavioral characteristics of you truck a lot. And, your fuel consumption will go down. And, your front tire...

Is it going to be produced or is it a concept vehicle? Can't they make it with enough bed to actuelly do something with. How about they come back out with the J4000 with a Cummins for power? I would buy a new truck if they did that. Otherwise, when the Dodge dies it's back to the '84 CUCV. JT out

What DogHead said, ditto. Even in temperate climates, a good fuel additive will lubricate your injection system and improve cetane rating. I personnaly always use Power Service, white jug, I buy by the case. Tractor Supply Co. runs lots of specials on it up here around me. Every time I get an...

This post brings us back to David Doyle and EDTA, a chemical that removes sulfate from the lead plates in a 6TL battery. I have treated two batteries with EDTA and they are both still starting trucks. The rub is that it is a lot of work. If a person had a 5 gallon paint shaker, it would be easy...

I advise against threadlocker on the hex nipples, there is no trouble with the nipple coming unscrewed. The settlement into the gasket is the situation, and you certainly want to be able to retorque if they do ever begin to seep. I have no chance of knowing who did and who didn't, actually use...
