Oh hey, its LAWYER related! So since you are the resident expert.... What sort of margin would a legal team of a vehicle MFG apply to a GVWR, to best protect their client in the event of a claim? Asking for a friend. ;)

Rotation was not a requirement for this application and such a short block. Larger blocks and shorter wheelbase (single piece driveshaft) necessitates it, but this does not. Pinion angle is still within spec to factory. The change is so slight that the carrier bearing didint need shimming...

Her you go big guy. https://www.airliftcompany.com/shop/88396/ Hope you like the taste of crow

So you cannot back up your claim that Im incorrect? Oh come on…. If you can Ill ‘like’ all your posts for a week, or maybe even let you eat at the cool kids table! Or how about this…. you find a single truck on the market today that challenges my claim. As in, running at max GVWR on the...

The truck or the camper? or both? Pretty sure Ive posted photos of both, likely years ago. Both are used a ton, so are typically an occupied mess. I do have some updates for the camper come spring (additional cabinets). I suppose I could nav some photos then. 👍 Thank you, btw.

Finally! So thats what all your nonsense has been about?? Alright, so if thats what you are convinced is incorrect, please enlighten us as to what IS being taxed near peak GVWR while running down the highway. And since you are so convinced Im wrong, Ill even let you use my own rig as an...

Well past the 10year mark. 👍 And reliable and comfortable in every season as you can imagine. Although I do have some additional cabinets to build and install, to fill some of that wasted space above/around the seated dinette area.

Sorry guys, original build thread was lost when Pirate originally dissolved. I can link to my photo album on Flickr later if youd like. Maybe when I catch up with projects and work (haha 🤪) Ill repost the build thread. Chances are low for that however.

Id love to see our troll in this thread justify theGVWR of the old 1-tonToyotas Surely they would have exploded in a great ball of fire before even hitting the dealers. 😆

And all you are doing is confusing the parts that happen to also cross over to medium duty (or not) as part of the discussion. Nowhere did I infer that parts are also shared between our f250 and medium duty, although many do. My inferences were between our 10k GVWR and a similarly equipped...

Nowhere did I claim it was a 550. What I did claim is that nowhere am I exceeding the ratings of the components as each component is used on trucks with greater GVWR. In which I am 100% correct. I know, reading comprehension is tough. As for accuracy, 2011 is a changeover year for...

Not at all. Most recent trip we just returned from included near 90 miles of off pavement. 😉

And here we go for more... Let me know when you want me to stop, this list is near endless. PS Pump Same, F250/350 TRE Same, F250/350/450/550/600 :D track bar bushing Same F250/350/450/550 torque converter, Same F250/350 trans clutch pack SaME f250/350/450/550 Drag link, same F250/350...

And here it is 20k later. "I can assure you that it will last" See, I can do that too. And considering the ages and likely mileage of each of our trucks, Id say my claim holds more water. Anybody can buy a brand new truck, bolt on a bunch of fancy parts and go on an adventure.

Uh, nobody has claimed to increase GVWR. Only take the ratings with a grain of salt, and understand the actual limits. As for the upgrades, those blocks have already seen 20k miles. 3/16 box tubing with welded struts within them. They are as they went in, and are in no way failing. The...

Taking advantage of this amazing fall weather :cool:

Hey, anything we can do to help remedy your ignorance ;) Here we go for starters. snip #1 2011 model year The F250 and F350 regardless of options utilizes the same trans, the select-shift 6-speed, along with the same gearing. Snip#2 Same year, showing difference GVWRs, with SRW F250 and...

Already answered. Maybe you forgot. Each and every component/item in that list is the same as those used in trucks with higher GVWR. And even when pushing those GVWRs, you must still factor in some margins. In the backcountry now. Ill update with specifics when I have a proper signal. 😉

Interesting question something else to consider.... With water in it, it will turn into a milkshake. I figure the air in that milkshake will likely effect the accuracy of the sending unit itself

Then starting with the end brackets (mounting brackets) I added some tabs, drilled and set 6 grade-8 riv-nuts, and started dry assembly. Dry fit for good reason. Ill need to bend some pipe to match body lines. The bumper will also get a top/cap.
