    Banned by Govplanet over Red Rock pickup (and refusal to place shelter in the back of my 1 ton)..

    In my opinion they do delay some listings to spread them out to realize a bigger return per unit. For example in a listing for a trailer, there was only one that week but the background pictures showed 3 more identical units. The others were listed after the first one sold in subsequent weeks. I...

    Axle Identification?

    remember the govt under rates and over build on specs is a wild guess on my part. The other part of the puzzle is in the 60's were single wheel cyls. THey were not dual cyls per side till the A2c if I recall correctly in the late 70-80's? That whole family in the 60's could be m103 gen set and...

    Split boot for outer CV axle 10k success!

    Original split cv boots were glued/sealed together. The original ones were not able to hold up dependably. This design is light years ahead of the first ones. Split cv boots have been around a long time and do the job they are intended to do. These are Chinese as almost all Dorman/Motormite...

    Kirkland diesel oil

    Largest oil company with most of private labels is valvoline, way down the list Quaker state and havoline/chevron. Private labels with specs on label will be just fine to use.

    Greetings and welcome to steel soldiers. 36 inch are older bias ply tires and I don't believe they are currently made anymore. 37 inch are radials and are more common now and currently made by Goodyear and bf goodrich. Radials are a much better tire with better ride and traction if available...

    What to do with a transmission core?

    Try asking your local transmission shop. I bought a few cores in the GL day from Gulfport and flipped them. I would strip the pto off before i sold them. I think I was getting $150 with no can 4 years ago. Common use transmission in school buses and other medium trucks with automatics. This...
