My cap that went bad was also the 13 psi OEM equivalent cap. Just replaced with the new one. Seems like everything is fine so far.

Got it figured out Talked with someone from Ron Davis who recommends a stant rad cap with the part number 10234, also motorad t19. He recommended using a higher psi cap (19 psi!!!), saying that the aluminum radiator performs better at those pressures. The radiator might like it but my 35 year...

Did a bunch of wheeling over last week. Installed two 9” big lion lights on the front bumper (my 80 amp alternator is having a hard time keeping up with their draw). Also upgraded my gmrs antenna to a radome bull bar type. Seems to be a big upgrade. Trying to get used to the placement in view...

Looks like we have the same radiator, I’m going to contact Ron Davis directly. I’ll put what they say in the forum for others to see. Marco, your cruiser is a specimen to behold. Pretty amazing dude, I hope to get there one day. What digital temp sensor and gauge are you running?

Not the same size as oem for me. Is you neck size different Marco?

Huh, mine seems different. I’ll report back

Question for anyone running the Ron Davis radiator. What radiator cap is on it, mine is leaking out of the top part of the cap- looking for a replacement. Tia

NO 😂, jk. I’m hoping the round lights I’m going to put on it will break up the funny lines.

Installed a new to me front bumper last weekend and wired up the winch that was on it. I made a custom bracket to hold the winch-battery disconnect switch. The bumper is a trail gear bumper with custom hoops. Going to be installing 2- 9 in round led lights soon.

Hey guys, I’m looking at getting either the arb winch front bar or the non-winch bar. I’m trying to keep in mind weight with my already heavy vehicle. I’m not sure I’m going to run a winch in the future. I’m not opposed to modifying the non-winch bar in the future to accept the winch Any...

Hi Everyone, Just as a general feeling, the US definitely seems to have turned "Overlanding" into a expensive capitalist venture. I'm from and live in Hawaii, where all the offroad camping still seems to be wholesome. People still seem to mostly make their own gear - they don't resort to...

I have two 3f-e LCs and they both idle like crap when I take the oil caps off. I’m interested in anything anyone has to say about this.

Wonderfull, I love simplicity!! Thanks!

How much power are you able to get with your advanced timing? Any pinging? Also, how are you able to know how advanced you are past the 7 degree bb, are you eye balling it or are you actually counting teeth?

Sorry if this is a stupid question, once you get the vehicle to operating temp, idle to 650 rpm, diagnosis box leads jumped, do you then turn the engine off and aline the timing bb with the needle by turning over the engine by hand?
