Thanks for all the knowledge sealed it is then. I always get the best knowledge from you guys. I did replace the front crankshaft seat, but wasn’t aware of the tranny and the bushing. Is the tranny seal replacement the same as front crankshaft seal?

Grease or non grease? I’m old school and leaning towards grease but I am looking for advice so thank you

Never had it on the road…except to tow it to Colorado and unattached the driveshaft. The rear universal joint was froze up. So looking on rock auto there was a huge selection and could use some recommendations.

Would like some advice from experienced dually 6.5L dually owners or past owners….well I’m getting excited about finally experiencing a real truck. I haven’t tried to start my truck in about six months and to my surprise it fired right up, well in the past it took about two or three battery...

Well said gentleman. I thank you for sharing your knowledge. I’ll just scrap that idea and deal with it when I get road ready.

Yeah I was going to put them on the rear but didn’t want to put spacers…the ones that are on there look super hard rubber and if you need to brake hard they would probably just slide. I don’t usually use A I but it suggested that they would fit but might need spacers.

Hello, friends…I looked it up and have questions AI mentioned they will work but might need spacers…I’m ready to get new tires on my tundra and my old ones have about 1/2 life still left and they are the best tires I’ve ever bought. My 95 dually has 225/75/16 but they look like they could use...

I would like to apologize for ranting… off the topic of the post. I finally was able to locate the bracket for the alternator that was missing and glad I didn’t try to fabricate one…it is a well designed heavy duty bracket. I also drilled and taped a pyro probe before the turbo on exhaust. Sadly...

Gabby’s iron and steel scrap yard Chicago Heights Illinois

No problem take it easy and recover. I’ll take care of it, I have a little bit of welding skill and an arc welder and mig and drill press. The thing I miss is in Illinois there was a scrap yard that would let you browse the yard and you could buy back what you could use. Another guy parting out...

I found a picture and part number of the bracket missing. But seems like it is hard to find, but I’ve been searching and messaged people with parts cars…no luck yet. Does anyone know how to get dimensions from a part number and picture, I’m sure I could crudely fabricate one. The picture threw...

Well said

Yeah I’m thinking mid 70s for me, and will be here for anyone in the family who wants to apply themselves and become one with the machine. Focus grasshopper
