Bigger wheels on. Some more sawzall engineering and the rear 14.5 x 43 (365/80R20) tires are on and with enough clearance to get by for now. Too dark for decent photos but here is one to wet the appetites.

Mexico somewhere. Either Copper Canyon or Baja. Depends on what the weather looks like for the guys on motorcycles who will be in a tent. We have a start date and an end date and nothing else planned.

This is more for record keeping and helping those searching for Cummins oil pressure problems. I have been having an ongoing intermittent check engine light. After getting a couple of tools to run diagnostics it came down to oil pressure low. Now my truck has a good old manual gauge so I could...

One thing to also consider if you are looking at doing a minimal internal refit is what length of bed/couch you can fit where the existing bench is. My 1st one was 74" and that is too short even for me. The 2nd one (Freightliner) is 78" and that is OK. Discount van and truck are a good source...

Glow plug relay would be the first thing to check replace. If it has not failed yet it will soon. Put a voltmeter on the batteries. If you get a drop as soon as you turn the key on and it jumps back up a little while after the "wait to start" light goes off then there are at least some glow...

Vicious rust but I like the pod over the cab. For $2200 if it runs it's a winner. Buy it, drive it as far south as the money allows and then walk away.

Ural sidecar (no bike) $1300 Sacramento http://sacramento.craigslist.org/mcy/4787579032.html I have a Ural/Dnepr Sidecar that I was going to make a winter project of. But find I really don't have the enthusiasm for it. I believe its a 1950's era soviet sidecar (same as used on BMW's in WW...

I have Amazon Fire, Chrome Cast and Apple TV. The Chrome Cast is a POS and is forever buffering and losing connection (15' from the router). To replace it on one of the main TV's we got the Amazon Fire (already had the Apple TV for years). While it does check the box for being able to get access...

Hmm very interested. I just need to do a bit more research. These will be used with my 18,000 lb rig. Being an Australian who is resident in the USA it will come down to function over patriotism (and the fact that I am a tight ********. $$$)

Very interesting document. Seeing the extrusion and welding specifications is an eye opener. Thanks

No but I did check that one out before I bought mine. His was a good one but I wanted the extra cab and had to go to Florida to find one.

Yeah not too much soft stuff for the FL. Only looking at the floatation the 365's will provide to hopefully keep the front wheels from sinking into the sand too much. The bonus of the surplus stuff is that they can be aired down a long way compared to normal OTR tires. I think I have upper the...

Here is something to keep the fires burning. I don't have any details just a photo a buddy sent me from Colorado.

The tires are fine. A little noisy but that is to be expected for this type of tire. Give me a yell if you need tubes I think I have 1/2 dozen new ones. I may also have a full set of tires for sale if the 365/80R20 install goes well (6 of them were 0 miles when I got them, 4 now have a few...

2WD with plenty of clearance, plenty of tire floatation, good turning circle and a locking diff can go a lot of places. If you find that you need a nimble 4wd to see something get a local to take you there. Now I have finally put 1 of the tires on. They fit on the front with a little boring of...

Not looking at too much offroad, planning on it being an "all roads" vehicle. No winch (too big for a normal 12v winch) but I did order a 30' x 1 1/2" kinetic tow rope for those moments. Also a few either Maxtrax or sand ladders for the soft stuff.

Tires are the same height but 3 1/2 inches wider. More importantly for me they are serviceable without a big tire changing machine. The alloys had mean it worried what would happen when I let the local tire guys loose with big tire irons and hammers.

Hmmm that's more than what these guys are looking at spending. Count us out. Best of luck with your sale.
