    Running a power line to the rear of the truck

    Blue ox with all due respect. I have no idea where you got that info, maybe an ATV winch. any of your larger winches draw in excess of 400 amps. like almost 500. if it draws that much it's better to place an aux battery near the winch and use the wire for charging that battery. but again I...

    Running a power line to the rear of the truck

    it's impossible to say what gauge will work because we don't know the end power consumption. any guess before we have a for sure number is just speculation. x2 on the marine cable. Ancor is top notch. highdesertranger

    quad shock brackets

    for the shock length you must take into consideration total drop as well as total compression. both numbers are equally important. highdesertranger

    My hub won't lock

    My hub won't lock

    My hub won't lock

    the outer chrome piece has little relief notches in it. the actuating cam body fingers fit into those notches and the cam(plastic piece that you turn) the lowest part of the cam lines up with the fingers when it's locked. that is the easiest way to install it because you are not fighting the...

    Transfer case lever doesn't fit and housing missing?

    that is not the right shifter for that cover. take a picture of the transfer case from the back looking forward and we can ID it. why would anyone swap in a 203? highdesertranger

    My hub won't lock

    if you have factory Spicer hubs like what is shown in post number 2. the plastic actuator only goes in one way correctly. you can assemble it wrong but it won't work right. highdesertranger

    Interesting observation of my thermostat/temperature gauge

    lately(for the last 20 years) I have had good luck with AC Delco thermostats. I have had terrible luck with Stant thermostats. heavy duty thermostats have the little bypass hole with a jiggle valve. that's a technical term Jiggle valve. highdesertranger

    Play in steering box at normal operating temp.

    a couple of points, I only use ATF in a emergency. it works but always causes problems. never ever never try to adjust a box unless you absolutely know what you are doing. never buy a rebuilt box from a parts store. go to a well respected medium/heavy truck repair place and ask them who...
