    Aluminum expedition trailer

    A lot of class 8 trucks and trailers are fastened with "Huck Bolts". They look like old style carriage bolts until you notice that those aren’t threads but rings on the stem of the bolts. The "nut" is crimped onto the bolt with a "gun" that pulls the stem of the bolt and forces the nut into a...

    Which one would you get?

    Applejack, nice one hadn't thought of that one (my wife thanks you as well:Wow1:) Desolation, had thought of that one but if I can make this work I would likely keep it for a while but still a good idea. Mauricio 28, that would be a cool one. Will consider it. I should also mention that I...

    Which one would you get?

    So I have a unique opportunity before me. I just relocated to Naples Italy and will return to the States in a few years. At that time I can bring back one vehicle with me. So this begs the question, which one? I have been thinking about a Pajero or Trooper or a Crusier and since someone...

    Which one would you get?

    I have to check but I think as long as I get one that is 25 years old or older then I can bring it back as an antique and skip the federal stuff. I do plan on getting a diesel as I used to be a diesel tech and have been around them my whole life. In fact my DD back home is a 94 fullsize Balzer...

    Offroad Teardrop - SawTooth XL

    You should develop some and sell them. Look up some of the teardrop sites and I bet you'll see that there is a market for them.

    Offroad Teardrop - SawTooth XL

    So how about selling the plans in order to finance the trailer? I would love some plans as I'm in the planning stages of my own trailer and yours has been a major influence in my design.

    Help wiring light bar...

    You can do the same thing with a single center off switch. You wire the center spade to the relay control spades. One of the outer spades goes to 12v positive to simply turn on the light. The other one goes to the headlight high beam wire. This way the relay still controls the current of the...

    Charging batteries while driving?

    I agree with this one and you can make a set of jumper cables that plug into it by simply buying two sets of the plugs. Then you dont have to open your hood to give someone a jumpstart. I have that setup on my Blazer and love it. People are always impressed with it when I don't open the hood to...

    Any comments on a dual fuel 3500 I'm thinking about?

    Everything there is correct except for converting a gas truck to diesel being "cheap". Huge trouble converting gas to diesel or diesel to gas.

    1991 Cummins Suburban

    Pretty sure your talking about the lift pump not the sending unit. The sending unit is for the fuel level guage, the lift pump sends fuel to the injection pump. Best bet is to replace the crappy in tank lift pump with a Walbro FRB5. By far the best impeovement I made for my 6.5 Blazer. It's a...
