Have you talked or thought about pulling the pistons and running a glaze buster hone down each cylinder. new rings and I'd even put some new rod bearings in there, too. Not too much more time or money.

I know you said no lift, but a 1.5" cheap shackle lift with 2* front shims (and you want new shocks anyways.....50 year old shocks are worn out) and some 31x10.5 on stock steelies would be about perfect! stock steel wheels are almost free these...

The Kenda tire is doing everything you need a tire to do, if you are still driving your full body pig on a body damage guaranteed trails then you are probably running something different... For the rest of us I think it's a pretty good tire, I...

Back when men were men...and rubber was rubber! :lol:

Of course!

Understood! I just try to simplify and not get too detailed if not necessary. You need to feel what you are doing ( I know a lot of us do with all the talent here😘.) But to simplify without getting over complicated or confused with all the info...

Got the best ride in da Group 😘🍺 your Cousin from Boston 🍺😘😘

Don't assume.... Yes Bob we can dial in our machines but... I believe you and I have ran a few more # of wire than some of our IH8MUD friends and if we can do something together that benefits that one guy that's still paying attention then we...

None! .030 and make your adjustments the way you weld 🤔🧐😲😳🤣😮😏😘 or **** around and buy a 💩load of wire and experiment with speed and wire thickness! It's metal you are smarter make your adjustments with Heat and your Speed! Don't over complicate...

Would you be willing to do some random testing with me? I've been welding with .035" wire for the last 25 years and only just recently bought some .030" rollers and wire for one of my feeders. .023" and .025" is not something any of my feeders...

I’ve gotten my best results using .023”/.025” wire on a lower amp setting (80?) and a medium-slow wire speed. Used to use a cheap hardware store brand called Forney, but later switched to Lincoln wire which can be picked up at Home Depot (no...

****ing Stud Muffin 😘🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣

So MIG welding.. What size wire and what are you settings for Pig Steel?

Yeah he talks about this in the second video. I was originally taught to lap weld and lead the seam on the outside and undercoat the inside, that quickly changed to body filler "Bondo" on the outside and I feel like that's what I did forever. I...

I think in the second video he shows the lap weld back where the joint is facing upward ( or downward?)so water would be hard to get to? I might be wrong about this as I was my third beer. 👍

would you use a cavity wax or fluid film method on an ABCD pillar? 100% yes, I’ve mentioned this several times in several places but I will share my thoughts again here. A pig is known to condensate and rust from the inside out, if we assume this...

I was thinking he would be living in the pig.....since it looks like he doesn't have a living room at the moment - based on his last house rebuild update anyway. 😂

I got a few sets,$30+ shipping

you should change that

Looks good to me 👍🏼
