Ran down to Big 10 this am and had my KM2s Road Force balanced.
The tech that did it had a big ole beard. Tough looking guy.
Had to get the manager to drive the Pig in and out of the shop because he could not drive a stick.
How embarrassing

Ran out of time to get the tent to the top of the Pig and really needed to pack some dry firewood so I am taking the M416 to the Soirée
My first long trip in this pile. Wish me luck. I’ve got a solid pit crew to caravan with.

I’ll begin with the positive.
I made it 800 miles to and from the Swine Soirée
Monumental considering the farthest it’s been driven in 12+ years is 100 miles
After putting on the new carb I ditched the canister fuel filter because I dissected the old one and it was mostly clean. I thought my tank was good to go.
I had a clogged filter before I got out of my driveway. I went and grabbed the canister, reinstalled and hauled ass.
I made it about 6 hours and was trying to push as close to the camp as possible to fill up and I clogged up on the highway.
Long story short. As long as I keep the tank in the top 1/2 I have no problems.
Bottom 1/2 I start starving for fuel and or clogging filters.
Time to drop the tank and have it cut open and cleaned or get a Cruiser Brothers replacement unit.
Also the Warthog got a new life
Got lots to do before SSS19

I can’t think of a better time to “roll” my truck over

55 gallons?!? Fitting, but I bet you're gonna need at least one of those pulled leaves to keep that ass end up.
I run that tank and put 60 gals. in it easy. She's heavy when full and you'll need to make a thick skid plate for it, too.

A lot of clean gas.
What’s the sending unit situation on it?

Swap over from the old tank. It’ll have instructions for extending the arm.

We will be putting a fuel pump in there too.
Switching to fuel injection?

Lots of plans were made as I pushed along at barely 60 mph
Here's what I use....Liquid Sensors - Marine Diesel, Fuel, or Water Level Sensor
It plays well with the Speedhut gauges. I use a GM in tank pump, also.

Gotta stay stock gauge if possible but with 55 gallons I can’t see how I would really need one.
60 mph is good for these rigs when loaded down and pulling a trailer. Carb or fuel injected. Staying with the 2F?
are you still running the stock diffs?
I swapped to FJ60 diffs.

My 40 (which is the exact setup but lighter) had the same load on a similar trip pulling the same trailer last month and it did WAY better. I literally drove it 80 mph once just because.
I take my 60 with a bigger load as well. 70-80 easy.
I’m assuming this 2F is just tired. I think a refresh is in order. It might not get FI initially but the tank will be ready when it goes in for a conversion.
I am not looking for a Scrapdaddy rig but I am looking for a Voodoocruiser rig. He’s rocking a 2F and 35’s (4.56 gears and H55) and he rocks that thing all over.
