  1. I bet someone had green antifreeze in that engine
  2. Glad to hear it's better. Now to find out what caused it 🤔
  3. Roid #$&@ phone not rid
  4. Yeah.... careful not to get rid rage 😂 is it at least getting better ?
  5. Didn't an outfit by the name of Transmission Technologies (TTC) take that part of Spicer ? or is that Tremec ?
  6. I'm like'n the shed. Those pills are a steroid. Once you start the prescription you can't stop. ( like can't just say screw it after a day ) they have to be all taken in the order they said
  7. That's a transmission more for a smaller truck, like maybe a ten wheeler with a DT466 or something like that.
  8. The "8" series is only rated to handle @ 800 lb/ft of torque from an engine. Likely only has a inch and three quarters input shaft (?) I don't think it's a good choice for the truck you want to use it in.
  9. That is correct. I just assumed it was a larger series. An 89 is I small transmission. Not physically small, just not something you'd find in trucks that are bigger.
  10. RTO or RTX..... it's an overdrive. Personally, 4.42s 24.5s and an 8LL is a fairly well working arrangement in my opinion. Same thing with 4.17s will go faster though.
  11. An 8LL is an overdrive.
  12. Yikes, I think you should go and find out what's going on. Isn't it strange how when we feel the slightest thing needs attention on a truck we're all over it......ourselves ???? not so much
  13. I took a picture , then this guy went by and photo bombed my side view
  14. White shed with a green roof ? I have one like that. Love it, hope you like your's as much
  15. That looks like it's over 13'6"
  16. ATF works if you don't mind having everything loosened up and pumped through the engine. If you're careful and change the oil and filter a couple times there's a slim chance. Nothing is a quick fix other than rebuilding it. With modern oils and a nice hot ignition ? it'll probably never happen again.
  17. I bet they never figured that car would have air bags like that in it
  18. If it was ok then started doing this ? It's not the air. Spring(s) or saddles and blocks are worn out.
  19. That's the "Lucky" model
  20. I don't think he's driving a Mack (?) of coarse no girl's gonna look (FYI I like seeing the weekly photos too )
  21. Tom Tom Tom.....you need to post some pictures if you ask a question like that ( lol )
  22. It looks like the same guy has an R for sale too.
  23. That guy's hood extension (?) isn't quite as involved as Truck Shop's
  24. Yes not sure why, but everything new ( clutch, transmission ) and gap was too big. I used an Eaton two piece and a torque limiting ..... Worked fine. I'm sure something was mismatched, I know I put a new Eaton 7 spring clutch in it as opposed to the K+ for a 9 spring
  25. I did it on a 107 once after installing a new clutch.
