    1998 Durango - The Purple Nurple

    Making non streetable would help. Body panel integrity is slightly less important then. But yeah powertrain in the 300s on something designed and built in the 90s ? It's what made me sell my 2002 WK. Had only 205 k but the unibody rusting and having already replaced over half the...

    1998 Durango - The Purple Nurple

    What's ballpark costs on parts to do springs and shocks all around, along with any other hardware to get them swapped? Do you have space/skills to do work yourself? Whats always sunk me on older stuff is rust. Body rusts out, and every. Single. Bolt/fastener is seized solid. And doing the work...

    The full sized mid-size, my 2014 F150 "Fiddy"

    What are some of you paying for 87 regular as of this week? Today we can find $1.169 per liter or $4.424 per US gallon. Premium 91 is generally 15-20 cents per liter above that so $4.99 per US gallon or higher. Also, almost found the exact truck I wanted locally, $54k MSRP. It has the 301a...

    Subaru Outback Wilderness

    Thanks for the article. The product strikes me as an excellent "Intro to lifestyle" vehicle. Considering many of us have to daily drive the weekend/vacation adventure vehicle. This would still work as an all purpose sort of car if the first forays into car camping didn't work out for the...

    Ride height help

    Wouldn't spacers exacerbate the issue? He has negative offset now so pushes the wheel further from the hub. His tires aren't very wide, all things considered

    Ride height help

    Ah minus 6 offset. Factory is super positive like +40 Not sure if a total of 2.75" lift will fix that, but you would be at the max height for stock components, especially using a spacer. You'd likely need an UCA at that height. @Jnich77 you have a 13th gen can you chime in? Or tag McCarthy or a...

    Ride height help

    What's the offset of your current wheels? What size are your tires? Also where is it rubbing, the crash bars? Control arm? Fenders? Bumper valence?

    Just another tire thread!!

    I'd like to see what the control tires are in tests. As an example Tire rack tests winter tires and runs a tire multiple times on a controlled course, and also switching back to the control tire in between. Most manufacturers also list things like "30% shorter stopping distance in snow!**" "**...

    Just another tire thread!!

    My truck sees very little bare concrete in winter as I don't drive it much and my city is a ******** hole that doesn't plow side streets more than once a year. Every intersection on side roads is a nice reflective mirror of polished ice from all the all season tires spinning away. A good chunk of...

    I want to live where a 1995 anything isn't rusted apart and every bolt and nuts not seized into a homogeneous block of iron oxide.

    Is the new frontier out of the running?

    Just another tire thread!!

    Yeah I mean if you studded an all season I can see it not working great. But an actual winter tire that's also designed to accept studs ,the studded version will out perform the non studded version in certain situations. There are drawbacks too like noise, road surface wear, probably less...

    Indecision, the (Ford) Used Diesel Market and the Year 2021 - Need a sanity check

    If I was going long term I'd be choosing the newest 6.2 gasser aluminum super duty I could stomach paying for in the absolute lowest trim with the least amount of gadgets. As for fuel economy, driving a brick with brick like things behind or on it will cost money. My 3.7 F150 gets 13 US MPG...

    Which eight LT tires?

    What is the OEM TT tire? As in size and load rating? All of my trailers have had 13-15" rims and load ratings easily handled by the same diameter LT tire

    Pretty poor selection in 33ish sizes. I'm finding some in 285/70R17 but not as many as there are in 265/70R17 or other 32ish sizes

    Light weight '04 F150 5.4L 3V build.

    I don't know what the composite wall assemblies are worth from somewhere like total composite (they r on forum as vendor) but something well insulated would be easier to cool. Might be might enough if you dropped bed you could build a box and base for back of truck. What's payload? 9.75 axle I'd...

    Just another tire thread!!

    Trying to plan in advance, due to shortages caused by C19, and the fact new vehicles require a mortgage to afford. I'm looking for dedicated winter tires for my current '14 F150. In a true 33" size, as narrow as possible. I'm alright with E rating. I'd like to keep these tires for the eventual...

    2017 F-150 build...Everyone meet Walter White

    Forscan is a software that you can use to modify certain parameters in the OEM control modules. A tuner is usually specific to power train changes like timing, fuel, shift points etc. Using forscan to adjust tire size to correct Odometer and get the transmission to shift properly isn't something...
