What happened to this build? Anybody know

Where abouts are you headed for the eclipse?

I know this is a very old thread but any other old iron out there anybody is working on or using?

With the cost of labor by far most panels would be replaced rather than repaired no matter what the material. I'm in the farm belt and you can't swing a dead cat without hitting an F150 with 250k on the original drive train and a set of replacement balljoints. For the most part ALL of the big...

Thank you very much. We are hoping to get her out and do something fun when the weather warms up. She's a trooper. She acts like she's going to live to retirement age and then some and the O2 is a relative inconvenience. I really do appreciate your help/advice.

When purchasing an inveter do I need to consider watts of draw as well as amps? I don't know anything about them and I want to run and oxygen concentrator for my wife. She's on oxygen and I want to be able to take longer trips without the need to take a large bulk oxygen tank along with her...

To me the problem with the older trucks is efficiency in terms of fuel usage. The problem with the newer trucks is the cost and technical side of repairs. Give me a mid 70's or older truck with a throttle body or similar efi and I'm a happy camper. Another problem with the newer stuff has...

Thank you. You are awesome!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Some time back there was an article on here regarding the old series land rover and why the author preferred it to new vehicles. I can not find it. Does anyone have a link?

Simply amazing

A bit off topic but is there anything that works better than others for seeing in fog?

Old truck with new truck drive train = best of both worlds. New trucks are bricks too but they do have much more efficient engines and in some in many cases more efficient drive trains too I suppose. Modern efi/reliability with the rest of the old school simplicity sounds like a winner to me.

Not to hi-jack but how does the rope compare to steel when something snaps. Does it whip as severely?

Thanks! I never thought about the potential damage to brake lines and such. Maybe I'll get a set on clearance when winters over. Keep them handy just in case. Years ago I saw a set of "chain flails" they made for emergency vehicles only like ambulances and fire trucks. As I recall they had...

I'm guessing it has something to do with contents of the cabinet shifting and wedging against the door preventing it from sliding vs a swing out door which will still open allowing said contents to fall out and land on ones foot. Just guessing though

For you guys using chains, ever any concerns with breaking one and doing body damage? Also as s general rule is there a recommended speed limitation when using chains? I've never ran a set and was thinking about doing so. Thanks

It looks like the Fun Country II's are being discontinued. In may area they have been on closeout/inventory reduction sales. The new Fun Countrys are more aggressive and too new to get much feedback I would imagine so I doubt you'll find anything in the forums on them. From an appearance...

The leak issue is dead on. Very common. Doesn't happen to all but many. To me the real benefit of synthetic is it's ability to take the heat. Unless your running into excessive heat issues I just don't see an advantage. A friend of mine a few years back was a mechanic at a Ford dealership...

A lot of people believe that copper/brass radiators built identical to an aluminum radiator not only cools better but also is sturdier and will last longer. Aluminum however is substantially lighter. There are also those in the "hot rod" world that believe adding more cores ie 2 core vs 4 core...
