Sorry, no. Life has gotten in the way of MY plans! Please share yours though!

Thanks for serving.....Try truckpaper.com Also, Larry Stiger in Kentucy, he get lots of fleet units. His name w/ "truck" online will get you there. Alos, if you are looking for a Ford, standard cab, 450/550 I might be able to help from a local guy that gets fleet Suburban Propane vehicals...

Perhaps these tires wont work for you, but I REALLY like Goodyear "G" series full steel casing (like tractor trailer tires) stiff with no sway and in limited tread patterns. Many fully loaded duallys use these (with mechanic bodies, or our Pa Forestry Dept) if they are running loaded all the...

I use a modified M105A3. Too heavy for most, modular is a GREAT idea. Subscribed, Jronwood

Good info, subscribed. Jronwood

Thanks, read that a few years back. They need to do it again as some have fallen away, and new name brands appeared. Jronwood

I use multiple Reese style tubes for all sorts of things, here is one of my trucks, there are a total of four tube mounts, one above each frame rail, and then the two "stacked" in the center. I build them pretty bullet proof. The truck is an F550 and I will use them combined to mount a 2500#...

I have thought about it......Still looking at options (mostly alum so as to not bleed) Ironwood

OK, so I am NOT crazy for wanting a micro woodburner in my homebrew RV. Jronwood

My beef with those type things is they will only HOLD the dent in once it pushes into the body panels. .....IMHO. I forgo them on all my stuff, JD Gator, trucks etc.... I like them well built. Jronwood

Bob, Saw your build thread, NICE. I am fine tuning my build and accumulating pieces/ideas. I have a low mileage 5.9 Cummins here, a spare F450/550 CC/CC frame, spare Superduty 4 door cab, Found a Dana 135 axle and working on it's purchase. Also, waiting to see if another F350 CC/CC 7.3 6...

Hmm, that might explain the "I just ran over a large dog" feeling I used to get in my 550 manual w/ a Detroit. ...... Current 550 has a True-Trac and automatic and does drive/plow nice. For over the road, I would perfer manual. The bigger diesels seem to REALLY do better towing with an auto due...

Here is a picture of the style of the two back bumpers I built, one for my F350 CC/CC, the other for my F550 log hauler. They act as steps to access the beds and have 8x8 box tubes not yet capped and "doored" for tire chain storage. I suppose while not "off road" they provide another set of...

VERY good solution, although not cheap Wedi board, like cement board durability with foam sandwiched between, comes in various thickness. EXCELLENT excellent product, I will likely try to at least use it on my floor. I found some samples at a local tile shop (small drops) and was like what the...

NG fogger systems can and are being adapted to late model vehicals. I have a local farmer compressing his own from his gas well and powering ALOT of things on the farm, including diesel engines (gotta be careful as horsepower gains in a diesel will be 25%), looks promising,......until it is...

I had a 2000 F-550 7.3 manual 2WD, now a 2002 F-350 4x4 7.3 auto CC/CC (w/19.5's) AND a 2000 F-550 4x4 V10 auto crane truck/flatbed/log bed. I love each of the engines, V10 fires right up, use it locally, and for plowing my drive, grabbing logs (Hiab 035). The 350 is my "family/over the road...

I had a 76' Hi-Boy with a 390. What a truck,....when I sold it (pre Craigslist 15 years ago) I had guys from four states calling about it. VERY sought after. They also had BIG locking hubs, guys called them "Acorn Hubs" they might have been factory Warns, I cant remember. Jronwood

That IDI looks like a good deal, if you wanna do the wrenching. You CANNOT beat and IDI durability. There are lots of folks that can help you with details like cavitation of the anti freeze near the cylinder walls as they micro "move" in and out with detination. Evidentally this creates an air...

Very nice, good to see some folks out the truck/SUV. I follow a similar MO. Jronwood
