    Towing Nightmare!! 7.3 Help Needed??

    I've got eight H1 beadlocks -n- runflats with Goodyear 37x12.50R16.5LT's mounted on them. Pulling them off some M116A3's I just picked up from GL. I like shorter tires than the 37"on the trailers. PA is closer than FL :)

    Towing Nightmare!! 7.3 Help Needed??

    Clean all the battery connectors and check the health of the batteries first before you start shelling out $$ on every sensor. Start with the simple things first.

    Towing Nightmare!! 7.3 Help Needed??

    T444E, 7.3L very much like yours except w/o the Ford add-ons. I have pre-99.5s and post 99.5's (you can tell by the Turbo configuration) The one that is giving me the problem is a 2000. I need to start at the fuel tank and work my way forward. I hope it isn't the fuel pump, that is such a pain...

    Towing Nightmare!! 7.3 Help Needed??

    I wouldn't use that towing company anymore after a pants-filling experience such as that. It sounds like they need a better maintenance schedule on their equipment. Plus from the photos their truck might be a bit undersized for your sweet rig. As someone who has a slightly bigger truck (Intl...

    Buying & Building a Medium Ambulance into an RV – The FAM-BULANCE

    Then there is the other side of the coin ... when I upgraded the electrical service entrance into my house the building inspector came to review prior to service reconnection. He spent 2 minutes looking at it then turned to me and asked "Are you an engineer?". I replied, "Yes, why do you ask?"...

    AND YET AGAIN: Paul and Mike Try to Build a Hard-Sided Do-It-All ADV Trailer

    Only problem is that he specified hard-side living area vs. RTT. I think what you pictured is what is do-able - an extra room for the Sprinter.

    AND YET AGAIN: Paul and Mike Try to Build a Hard-Sided Do-It-All ADV Trailer

    Of Requirements and Men Pardon a few questions from an ole' requirements engineer: (a) So what do you want to pull it with? Your Sprinter? A Pickup? A Pinto? If it is your Sprinter, which already does a lot, just have the trailer cover what the Sprinter doesn't. Paul could whip up a rather...

    AND YET AGAIN: Paul and Mike Try to Build a Hard-Sided Do-It-All ADV Trailer

    Sounds like Scrapheap Challenge ... I wonder if you're going to have enough height (above the service body) and existing trailer length for your wish list .... Wouldn't it have been easier to scratch-build the trailer? (note: I'm not against the concept, just wondering on the engineering and...

    Custom Camper on F550 Cab Chassis Build.

    International MDTs Gemini isn't my sign but I didn't think Hexipus sounded very catchy. Let's just say that I have a small stable of early-to-mid 2000's International 4700s. Some people on here collect Porsche or Land Rovers, I collect Navistars (less $$$ and more useful - hard to haul a unit...
