    Fuso Frame Repair

    A good way to get a tight fight for bolts in a situation like that is to drill the holes undersized and then use a reamer to make the holes an exact fit or even a slight interference fit. Use bolts with a shoulder to avoid putting the threads in shear.

    It's Bronc o clock

    I like them. Seems like Ford has done their homework on what people want in a vehicle like that. They have all the bases covered from the wanna be sport model to the seriously equipped off roader. A diesel or a V8 option would be cool though too.

    Turbo Replacement 2010 FG 140 bad actuator

    Google that part number. Lots of options. I guess the actuator is electronic on that one?

    Turbo Replacement 2010 FG 140 bad actuator

    The wastegate actuator? No matter what is wrong, $3900 is a bunch of money for that. A very high end, high hp, custom turbo costs that much. You could probably find a turbo shop that could rebuild the entire thing including a new wastegate actuator for much less than that.

    Allan Tone Stole $1100

    By all means, tell the other side of the story. Start with why you took money and didn’t get the man his seats.

    Allan Tone Stole $1100

    Probably but I’m more concerned with how he seems to think it’s ok to take money for a product and not deliver. Then 3 months of run around to finally be told that a cc chargeback needs to be done. Bankruptcy is often just a way to legally avoid responsibility if you ask me.

    Allan Tone Stole $1100

    It doesn't sound like slander though. Why force someone to take action to get back the money that they paid you for something that you didn't provide?

    High output alternator

    I did it to have more amperage available at idle for winching and charging.

    How in the hell is an S-Pod BantamX $915.00!

    I agree. They’re more expensive than I care for. I installed one for a customer not long ago. The touchscreen is inaccurate and annoying to use plus none of it is waterproof or anywhere close to it. For the money you can buy multiple PDM modules that are waterproof...

    Diy alaskan camper style build

    Mine hinges at one end but the top nests down over the lower section like an AK camper. Mine is all aluminum and foam. Lifting is done by gear motors and screw jacks. I am planning on sealing the two halves with webbing that wipes the inner wall of the upper half. It's my understanding that this...

    High output alternator

    Ok. You always have the option to mount something different then. In my Isuzu which is now Cummins powered I mounted a prestolite high amp unit that makes 60% plus of it's output at idle http://www.prestolite.com/literature/alts/FL3001_IdlePro-Flyer.pdf

    High output alternator

    Does the fuso have a vacuum pump on the back of it like the Isuzus?

    Molle Hole Dimensions for a Rigid Panel - Consensus Sought

    I would think grommets or some type of edge guard would be an easy addition rather than hours worth of deburring and adding radii to the edges.

    The vehicle weight definitely matters.

    Mirror mounts for Isuzu NPR NPS?

    I considered fabricating a light bar to mount there too. Maybe a combination light mount and mirror mount. They’re very sturdy.

    Mirror mounts for Isuzu NPR NPS?

    That’s what I was thinking they looked like. I like those. They stick out less too. I might have to find a source for a pair of those.

    Mirror mounts for Isuzu NPR NPS?

    My truck is a 1996 US market NPR. It has what appears to be sockets for mirror mounts at each front corner. They are capped off on top. I've never noticed another NPR that used them but they all seem to have them installed. I attached a pic of one removed from my cab. They normally have a...
