It has sat outside since this summer and was running continuously for a couple hours till I climbed in and turned it around then shut it off and couldn't get out. No real time to freeze up since it was all still warm.

Long story short.
Both of my doors decided not to want to open yesterday when I went to get out after turning it around in the yard. I had let it idle for a couple hours to run some diesel winter additive through it. Both doors worked flawlessly all morning then suddenly I have to climb out a window of a cab over. The drivers door has been apart a month ago and I cleaned and greased up all the mechanisms while I was in there so I am surprised it is stuck.
Anyone know of a trick to get the doors open without having to remove the inner panels?

With solid tires on forklifts at work we have a company that comes out and presses the old tires off then the new ones on. Doesn't take them long at all everything he need is mounted on his service truck.
Maybe look around for a heavy equipment service company near you.

That looks like a useful set up.

My 2 cents on "turning up" a diesel is if you want more hp. buy a truck with a larger engine.
It will last longer than a small one pushed to its max and the larger engine most likely be cheaper in the long run.
Usually the factory settings are so the engine lives a long and happy life.

Key is never let a cat in the house. Once they come inside they are useless for hunting. I have never had a mouse issue . Happiest cat in the world.
Traps and baits would just get stuck to the local possum population.

I agree I always switch my phone to regular desktop view and haven't had any issues.
If I wasn't mid move to the new house. I would say it would be coming to decorate the new shop.

Tubes and liner are unnecessary in a 11r22.5 which are tubeless.

Yeah my uncle was laughing his butt off at me weaseling out the window. I am glad I am 6'5" with long arms and legs or I doubt such a maneuver would have been possible.
I'll see if my heat gun can warm things up and get them moving. I am leery of to much heat as I soaked them down last night in a ton of PB blaster. I don't need any fires.
What is the best lubricant to keep them from freezing up again? I was planning on a chain and cable type lube?
