We have a 1977 Kenworth dump truck with a cat engine in it. I just got all kinds of new chrome and stainless for it. New stacks, flaps/fenders, bumper, and new Yokohamas and polished Alcoas up front. The older trucks have more soul than these new sloped nose smoothy, slant eye/headlighted trucks.

Looking good! These old cabovers are making a good comeback!

Ill keep that in mind. I like the lookn of IROKs but they wear out so fast on the road. How much $?

In a perfect world Id like to find a couple 39" Mickey Thompson Baja Belted tires for 15" rim. I need to replace one and would not mind having a spare. Id also be open to any other FAT old school tires like Cepeks, Thornbirds, Boggers, Swampers etc. Need to be 14-20 inches wide (no 12.50s...

Looking great!

Straight , no toe on a straight axle. Just cuz ya talk to him everyday doesn't mean he did it right. Either fix geometry, sloppy parts are just man up and mob that botch thru the 30-38mph zone till she smooths out. Dont blame tires tho for a sloppy or crooked rig. I drive a chevy truck with...

Did you cut and turn the knuckles? It's hard to believe that you have 6 degrees and a decent front driveshaft angle with a WAGGY axle. Waggy axles were spring under and have one of the worst pinion angles around when used in a lifted or spring over app.

Some good advice in here and some bullshit to Lay them balljoints back at 4-6 degrees if you wanna cruise. Driveline will be ****ed unless you cut and turn knuckles. Halfassery drives good but wheels bad, or wheels good but drives bad. Wholeassery can drive AND wheel good. Spend some...

Rope is for fishing. Where corrosion is a concern. You will never see rope on a skidder or a tow truck where people make a living with a winch. Rope is a cool novelty with HUGE retail markup.

Im done with laydowns myself. And I dont like fishing rope.

Im going to disagree with the impact sockets. Maybe they are ok if you have a weak HF impact. I have a set that I put in a toolbag and used them with a gun once and turned two of them into BELLS. Flared them out like a cheap brakeline. JUNK.

Win some ya lose some. Read the reviews. If its a pile of **** (you should be able to tell by inspecting it, but if not,) the review comments will tell you the story. Or if its got low stars but just has one bad reason, the comments will tell you why its a POS and if its just a simple fix...

Cheaper/easier to just get a little beater rig with a 4banger to jam around in.

If you buy its private party, no warranty,,,, If its not a roller cam engine pull the intake and inspect EVERY cam lobe. If a lobe or two are missing, chances are they are now in the first second and a little bit in the third main bearing. Pull the pan and look for residue in line with any of...

Wrecking yard. Check the warranty and see if they have more inventory in case you need to warranty it. Stay AWAY from "Low Mile" RV engines. They usually have a half dozen rusty valves and seats from sitting in one position with a handful of valves open and rusting the valves and seats...

What weight oil?

Ive got 44s on my square body chevy. It goes 60-80 mph at least one-two days a week. Big tires can be found for a little more if not the same money as little tires. I can get another set of 44s that are 70% and better for 900-1000. A good set of 37s/38s will cost that easy. Hummer beadlocks...

The ford hi pinion makes SO MUCH sense in so many ways. From clearance, to strength, to T case options etc.

Toy axles suck. No matter how you polish them. To think that an axle that is superior will drive worse is not coherent thinking. Big plus, if you have 60s, why run 37s????? Time for big boy tires. Take off the diapers and run a 42-44.

TG link kits are a pile of ****. A twelve your old with an RC crawler can do better. JUNK. (FOA are JUNK to!)
