  1. Storing MIG wire long term

    how do you store wire for long term. I seem to swap wires for different tasks and when I go back to them they are usually rusty. Lots of humidity here so the temp cycles exacerbate things. I tries a zip lock bag but it wasn't enough protection or there was too much humidity in bag when...
  2. Long slow start - WTF?

    2012 3.5L EB. A couple of days ago it seemed slow to start, but only enough that only I would notice. In the last few days it has gotten noticeably worse, almost like the battery was dying. I pulled the meter out and it had 12.89V with the key off and 14.4 with the engine running. Hmm, seems...
  3. 22re Remanufactured Long Block

    Yeah, I know LC engineering is the best you can buy but I'm cheap. Does anyone have experience with a reman long block from auto zone or oreillys? Lots of mixed reviews on their sites.

    DOT brake lines for rigs running long travel coil overs/ ORI's

    Question for the builders. How would you run the brake lines for the front axle? I think we want this rig to stay DOT legal so no JIC or AN stuff right? So come all the way back to the bottom link crossmember then run lines down the top of the links with zip tie tabs OR just run off the...

    Long rock sliders on noodle frame

    '72 Ford F250 single cab long bed needs rocker protection. Frame has a lot of flex and the sliders need to be 8' long. Frame is narrow, 34" so supports are long. Do I need to do anything special? Lessons learned? Current plan is to use 2x4 3/16 for the rail, and four 2x2 1/8" supports tied to...

    How long will it last?

    1999 4runner (5Vz-FE) 235.000 miles My kid just put a Magnusson supercharger and Doug Thorley headers on the above truck. Next week it gets a new exhaust (Black Widow I think).

    TX 3 OG Bobby Long D60 u-joint caps

    I removed these u-joints right when Bobby started selling D60 birfs, ran them a season previous to removal. Just the caps, no cross's, no zerks seals or anything. Id prefer these go to someone who is running Bobbys u-joints and not to someones parts shelf. You cover shipping and they are yours.

    Need a 3/4-1 ton Truck for Long Hauls

    I’ve been debating posting this, because I have a feeling the backlash will come. :flipoff2: 2009 Chevy Silverado 1500 just did 30+ hours of towing and I’m pretty sure the AFM/DOD lifter failure happened 10 minutes from home. There’s a huge exhaust leak at the manifold, so it’s hard to tell if...
