Truck's saying the batteries aren't charging. Headlights stay bright, I get 14.5 at both batteries as per multimeter testing. Truck dies intermittently. All battery connections as well as alternator connections are as secure as secure can be. Anyone in the area that knows what they are...

So, I've got a 45 gallon tank in the bed of the truck. Didn't have parts or time before the holidays to get it squared away, so I made do with a harbor freight rotary pump... and on the trip from NV to MI I grew very tired very quickly of using it on the roadside to top the truck off at 20...

Alrighty... so I'm more than likely going to be getting an 11k triple slide 38' trailer, and trolling about the lower 48 for an unknown duration of time full-timing. Stopping is a good idea, exhaust brakes help with that. My questions are pretty simple. Why should I be getting one...

http://youtu.be/prUrVKi3IJ8 This is a video of my CUCV at startup, idle, and running it up. I'd like to know what possible causes of this could be. It's significantly worse during cold weather, this was at about 80F ambient. It's still running and going, but this smoke is extremely...

I've got specific questions that I can't afford to "field test" myself right now. What's the hourly fuel consumption of a LB7 at idle, 1200 rpm high idle, and 1800 rpm high idle? Thinking of things and plans and it'd be nice to have numbers to work with.

Howdy gents. This is a sort of a conglomeration post, so bear with me. My transfer case doesn't do 4wd anymore. it's not a NBSU thing because you hear it try to actuate. So, come November when the Alaska PFD comes out, we're going to get it up on the lift at my friends place and R&R the...

Just in case you didn't know. Got a frame repair kit and brace installed on friday for the blazer... it's wonderful knowing it's not going to break now and being able to steer in the right direction.

Here's the picture of what I have to plow at work. Here's what they want cleared, in red. The stack area is the same as below, no choice in the matter. Here's the recommended plow pattern by my bosses Here's what I have been doing, as it seems more efficient and less...

This is what I have on the silverado. B&W Tow&stow, Pintle model. 16,000 capacity pintle, 10,000 standard ball. I have had a trailer hitch stolen, so the reciever portion stays in and locked in, the removable portion stays under the rear seat in the cab unless it's being used. The pins COULD...

Got Stuck? Front Rear Now ya did it. You went and got it stuck. What to do? Well, hopefully you're out with a buddy or buddies... and they have winches. Here's how you can figure out exactly how FUBAR you are, and what you need to be able to pull you out in terms of winch...
