I was going through 5-6 sets of sylvania bulbs a year, warranty covered the replacements but a pain to replace. i just tried these guys for LED bulbs:
opt-7.com
price is not bad, they also make good light bars for a good price. the bulbs have a pre-wired controller. they send you a capacitor...
Because one tons weigh 7000-9900 lbs empty, truck to load ratio is much smaller. Weighed my one ton deck and it was 4450 kg empty with full fuel and a driver... 300 kgs off from my "math"
i would talk to the guys that deliver holiday trailers up this way from the factory's in the states. they are well maintained and usually driven by older guys as a retirement job. the back seat are usually brand new when they sell their trucks as they pull them out for small beds. and these...
SMS had a few pickup trucks roll backwards down hill in the mines, thus the policy for wheel chocks. even if you are a visitor on their sites and dont have wheel chocks they have to put them under your non-SMS truck (had it done to me). anything with wheels you have to chock, even the large...
two questions
1. what about the fuel additives called injector cleaners? same thing juts named different? so just as bad?
2. the new LMLs have a very long fuel filter life monitor built in, looks like 65 000 km between fuel filters according to the computer
we have been using injector...
yeah he will build any trailer you can think of pulled by a pickup truck. hes building a 26' flat deck pintle hitch with a hoist for a landscaper. i will be out there tomorrow and will try to get a pick of a side by side trailer, he builds them all out of steel.
the last dump he made was a real...
a friend of mine builds trailers, very good quality and has a few trailers that size he has orders for now. great thing is that you can custom build it with whatever you want, different tie down points a flip down front to give you 1'-2' extra length if needed and if not then it protects the...
if you buy your sylvania silverstars at part source its really easy, just keep the package they came in and they keep everything on computer under your account. i drive a lot and find the low beams go right around 1 year and the high beams will last years (less use) on a chevy
i was 1 month...
if your with bell they have unlimited local packs and unlimited long distance packs, i have both and my cell bill is about $75 a month
they hide it a bit so not everyone has these plans.
Add talk time & long distance minutes to your Bell Mobility plan
i dont think thats what most people are saying, they are saying the cost savings in diesel mpg to the purchase price of the diesel motor isnt worth it.
my diesel one ton has better fuel econompy pulling a 30' gooseneck empty then my girl friends 1/2 ton gasser on the highway
thats why a good dealer is the key, for all makes
the chevy dealership i go to said that they trucks we bought there will be taken care of, even after warranty is up (depending on what it is). we are not at that point yet
and they offered to trade it in for $10k under what he wants and Ford (dealership) has admitted its a lemon vehicle which is why the $10k difference. thats what they offered
someone on that thread brought up a good point... it will now have a new long block motor installed it should be worth...
he would be more of a jerk if he parked to the line next to the black car, totaly block the black cars door. even though its the black cars fault for parking so close to the line
very similar situation happened to me last year with a dump trailer, caught the tire with one lug holding the rim and tire still on. local tow shop had 7 studs and re-used the 8th that was still on. cost $100 plus a $40 tip for a sunday. I check my wheel nuts often, not every trip... but we...
just a little update.
we camped out at touchwood this past weekend and drove the truck up just past the firetower. road up to fire tower is good but past where it looks like the trailhead is (all grown in) is very muddy, not sure if its because its a wet year or it just rained. beware if...
