  1. Your doing the best thing drain it clean it and new gas it seems once it’s bad if you don’t take it all out the new gas ain’t no good either my dad had worked on his sisters blazer and he replaced everything to get it to run right fianly drained the tank empty and put in fresh gas and it ran great went to use the old gas in his mower and it couldn’t even run on it . Wonder if you used some muratic acid on it to clean the rust out may have to cut it some it’s kinda strong
  2. Sweet looking ride looks in great shape congratulations hope to see it at watts
  3. I work next to a fed ex facility and there always adding on and making more parking lot
  4. Thanks superB I figure it don’t hurt to ask the problem with my truck is it’s a b 42 so my axle is very light I would like to find something that’s newer and hub pilot as that’s what I have in the rear of the truck now and it’s nice to have newer style brake parts. Your truck looks really good ! I see you don’t have front brakes I thought we had to run brakes on all axles in pa ?
  5. This is a bit off topic but being both of you have bud wheels on your b models do you know of any front bud axles for sale I have aluminum rear but Dayton front
  6. I like Paul’s answer it might be a counter shaft bearing ? My duplex in my b model will whine in high gear with aux stick in low then will go away when aux stick is shifted to high I know there was some failure at one time seeing part of my trans case has been welded back together
  7. Isn’t it a shame how much people waste I’m the same way I hate seeing something that’s good thrown away I was at work one day and watched the parts man toss a brand new Alcoa hub pilot 24.5 polished rear wheel in the dumpster cause it was out of warranty I couldn’t get in the shop fast enough to get a ticket to take it home and fish it back out
  8. Bob your best bet would be get all the old bondo filler out of there get some fiberglass resin and matting and make all your repairs with that cracks and holes get it good and solid then coat with body filler . That filler will not last if used to repair cracks and holes and don’t buy the pink bondo brand either I hav had good luck with evercoats line of products I think advanced or auto zone sells it I used the rage gold it lays down nice and sands quick but it’s like 75 bucks a gallon last time I got it and I found if you put a nice coat down then hit it wit 40 grit on a big 8 in da sander it will cut a lot flatter
  9. I heat with an out door wood burner have been for 15 years now I made it my self has a 3x3x4 fire box and holds about 100 gallons of water I pump it to the house and shop and I keep my house about 79 I get my fire wood by the log truck and it’s up to about $900 a load but i couldn’t buy oil that cheap I cut all my wood about 20 in then I have a cross mounted log splitter on a skid loader that I pick up the log carry it to my trailer then split it so it’s not that bad
  10. Friend of mine got a big stake bed Chevy had the diesel engine right before the duramax came out guy told him the Chevy garage told him engine was junk it started ok then after about 10 min of idling it would start smoking I looked it over for him and we pulled the air inlet off the turbo and there laid the wheel busted off drove it to his house only bout a mile 500 dollar turbo and it was good as new got the truck for 2500 bucks not bad in my book
  11. No that’s just the new ar15 that kills on its own it don’t need your fingers on it it has it’s own
  12. Shit that’s the Biden Harris campaign bus
  13. Merry Christmas everyone I hope everyone has a safe and happy holiday I’m in south western Pennsylvania and it’s crazy we have beautiful sunny 58 degree weather today no snow for us Paul
  14. That looks good they say gas engine truck is usually better shape no stress cracks from vibration are you getting everything in the picture ? Or just cab and doors
  15. The reason I changed to it my truck took forever to make oil pressure now I have it in a few seconds
  16. This should be the same one and at a good price I know cat wants over 600 for it the filter holds about a gallon and was used on 15 liter engines one thing to check on them is where it says bypass remove the plug and check for the spring and plunger if it’s not in there oil don’t get filtered
  17. This is what I went with on my b model will mount anywhere it’s a cat part and has a built in relief valve
  18. As far as I know all the dead people I know are voting for him
  19. Here is where I added my pyro gauge didn’t need the lighter
  20. How did the extra gauges turn out would like to see some pics I just cut a hole in my dash and got rid of the lighter and added a pryo gauge and yes one small project is never small lol
  21. Looks like you have a Stuart Warner volt gauge I would stick with it I had an amp gauge and it shorted while I was driving and caught the truck on fire was able to pull over and disconnect the batteries had to cut all the heavy wire out of the cab now I just pick up voltage anywhere
