    I found this post at the other place from a fellow that said he worked for a company that supplied parts for both transmissions. I tend to believe 2% to be the max with the zf6.

    Yea Mike, I have the SouthBend in mine. It will hold a LOT of power and never even whimper. The only problem is that it is noisy. Sound like a throw-out bearing going bad ........... but that is just typical.

    Bingo. The problem was the DMFW. The clutch was smooth and slick, but would not hold up even under stock power. The ZF6 was about $1800 cheaper IIRC. I would be willing to bet, that LESS than 5% came with the ZF6. I would not be surprise to find it was less than 2%. Other than mine, I don't...

    8/29/10 Have you ever pumped Gasoline into your Diesel truck tank. Was it at a BP?

    Yes I have. Until I read the OP, I had not considered what brand of fuel it was, BUT the color was green so it MAY have been BP. It ruined my day, and cost me a grand by taking it to a dealer. I know now that I got ripped off, but I the time, I thought it was much more serious and might ruin...

    Tent Trailer opinion

    John, it would not be worth 5K to me. In this depressed market, you can probably find a descent use camper for that price.

    1978 Nomad Trailer Restoration/Project: 88GMCtruck is at it again.

    Great job fellas. I wish I had your help/knowledge. I forget to drain the pipes in my horse trlr with LQ and have been trying to fix them. Ir is really a pain trying to get to most of them, and has really tested my patience:mad2:

    Rear dually tire sizes

    Tell me about it, Jeff. When I was hauling my cypress lumber from La. to Mo. for my cabin, I had a blowout on the right rear going down hill at nearly 80 mph, with a total weight of about 30K) It was spooky for a while):h Sgt, exactly what do you mean by curb bounce? Does the larger...

    Am i the only one?

    You are exactly right. I did a LOT of tent camping when I was younger. Starting in the BSA, then continuing on many hunting trips, and simply tent camping for the fun of it. But with age, comes laziness/softness):h Although I did spend the night in a tent this past turkey season, (at 61) I...
