Beware the pumpkin eater will get you:D

Nothing all that bad with t case brake. Just think is should have enough holding power (new out of box) that when i be stupid and try driving with the brake on I could feel it. Although with all the gearing of t cases I guess its a lot of torque. Line lock is addition to a t case brake sounds good.

Yep, did some more searching and most say hard to adjust/weak holding power. I will probably just go with another t-case brake. How about a t-case e brake like allpro or sky, and connecting it to a air brake pot (like on semi trucks). Mount the air pot on the frame where the existing cable would...

Thinking about a parking brake on my Dana 60 rear with disk brakes. Truck is 4runner with Toyota cases. I have had T case e brake on Toyota with mixed results. How about Elderodo disk brake calipers with built in e brake? Opinions?

Have an older Jackson helmet with an auto darkening 2"x4 1/4" replacement lens. It has fulfilled my needs in the past when I welded just for friends or my self hobby style. Recently my mig welding has turned into money generating work that has me welding on and off for 8 hrs daily, and my neck...

I have seen this before from bent's truck wile folowing him on the trail. His truck is an 88 efi with over 300,000 miles on only a head rebuild(he bought the truck new), but it runs great but every once and a while on the trail it spits out some blue smoke and then the next 2 times you wheel...

I belive you can make square tube flatbeds, bumpers,and sliders look quite good if you are carefull and know what you are doing, but trying to make exos or roll cages out of square is obvisly not going to look very good at all.

Used 2x2x 1/8th on mine. Weight is important with 4 banngers.

I have the best luck turning the heat (and speed equaly) lower than what you would use normaly. I move the gun in a stiching motion like I was stick welding pushing the filler into the crack (weld) and trying to avoid making a molten glob that would drip out. And having an extremely clean, bare...

My truck sports a receiver style winch setup. The winch is an old bellevue winch (old warn standup style) mounted on a home built receiver base. My built front bumper has an integrated 2" receiver for the winch, and my flatbed has a receiver recessed 18" back in the bed so the winch dosnt stick...

sounds like the 555's are as goosd as it gets. Just wish there was a way to greese them.

yep I thought the nuts were just loose too, but they were tight. When I take them off I will split one apart and see if the "lubed for life" theory is true.

Just saw the TRE's @ Trail Gear have zerks . I think I'l try them.

Yea, Its not just a loose nut either. Never seen a TRE wear so quickly. I must be REALY hardcore:D

Says this on top of TRE " made in japan K 2 three Five 555". Is there a better brand or style? I dont want to go heim.

just pulling both front tires off the wheeler and noticed that both TRE's had a good 1/8th of slop in them. The drag link ends were still good as new. Its a allpro hy-steer kit about 3 years old ( FJ-80 ends I think ? ). I am running 35's, a steering damper on the tierid, and no hydro, not a...
