    Rusted out oil pan.

    After somewhat rebuilding the engine I noticed oil dripping from the pan right behind the plug. After letting it sit for a week I noticed about 1.5 quarts sitting on the driveway. OK so I figure that when my buddy bead blasted the oil pan it may have punctured a hole around one of the spot...

    Has it been done to a 60 series?

    We've seen the incredible job TiredIron did putting Volvo 303 portal axles on his 80 series, https://forum.ih8mud.com/showthread.php?t=59452&highlight=portal+axles but has this been done with a 60. I'm thinking the 303-v-Pinzguauer axles, and would you have to swap out the leafs for coils?

    Radiator results

    Three weeks with the new Ron Davis radiator in and I am consistently running 5 degrees cooler than normal. Use to temp out at 220, and occasionally soar above that especially when stopped in traffic. I can now run with A/C on stopped in traffic & it stays at 215. Highly highly recommend it.

    12yr old boy killed by family dog.

    A San Francisco 12 yr old boy was mauled to death by his family pets, two pitbulls. Police shot and killed one dog, and the second was taken by animal control officers at the scene. Very sad.
