    That’s a cool trick, I remember learning that when I took a power search with Google course in college.

    I got 15 inch rims they seem to be sold with both 15inch and 16 inch wheels. Idk, I’ll swap em out if I don’t like it. Yeah, I think the locking hubs are last on my to do list might not end up doing it until I’m really convinced.

    I’m pretty sure it’s a uteltd tray. SET one would be great but I think they are too expensive. I plan to throw a OVRLND flatbed pop-up on there once I figure out the flatbed part. I’ve thought about custom camper that’s a cross between ellieoverland x overlanderunderbudget but I’m too much of...

    Build 1999 HZJ75 Firetruck

    @cppilot I read most of your thread multiple times. Definitely getting the Rosen sun visors. Yeah, idk who wants it either. First mod done, added some alibaba gas struts. It didn’t come with any padding so added some tire repair patches so it doesn’t dig into the hood. It appears that they...

    Another guy in here said the mechanic took it in exchange for removing it. I don’t know what I’m going to do with it, probably scrap it. Chatting with a few local folks I’m hoping somebody can let me use their shop and pay them for a dozen hours and let them take it and do as they please with...

    Yes, that's on the list. Just ordered some MT-90 Redline and their 75W90 GL-5 differential fluid . From export certificate it appears that this was purchased and maybe used as a pump for the most part... since they only put about 2,500 KM on it since 2021.It has new batteries from 2024

    it feels very hard to shift to 3rd gear from second but not when downshifting from 4th. Drove it in circles around the property for a while and towards the end I figured out maybe it’s more towards the 5th instead of being close to 1st or it was abused by the 2nd owner. Hopefully it’s just a...

    Truck arrived today from Jacksonville port to Western NC. Progressive won’t let me add this since it’s a “fire truck”. State Farm has a good policy with these kinds of things, so I’m switching my other cars over. Hopefully that’s smooth. Then it’s registration and starting work on the pump pto...

    I think that’s a good point, going to skip that for now. I was reading below and it sounds like the pump upgrade is needed to push 250hp. I’m only looking for like 160-180 HP...

    Hey LC guru's I own a 2014 mazda miata club and needed something bigger so i don't show up on a forest service road with my miata lol. I'm in western North Carolina. I've been really inspired by the fire truck builds on here and trying to grasp as much as possible from the beautiful threads...
