    Aftermarket rims for duallies?

    I want some nice shiny non stock rims for my duallie. But, I don't want 19.5's or 22.5's. Anyone know of a company that makes 17" stockers but nice chrome ones? Bob

    Here is the scoop guys. I am really looking to take advantage of the current offers (and hardship) of Ford right now. Of course I am gonna get whacked around a little on my trade in, F350 DRW diesel CC 4x4. But, if I can really get the right price on a new 08 gasser, it would be nice to...

    Here's what I did today.......

    I changed my 125 over to sand today. Took a lot longer than I thought it would, but boy oh boy am I happy with the results. Turns out my before pic never made it. But here is the after pic. I am sure it will be much better tomorrow after it settles in. On another positive note, I finally...

    Shop at Sears!!! NOT B.S.!!!!! - Support our troops!!!

    Christmas shopping has already started – consider buying at least one thing at Sears this year. How does Sears treat its employees who are called up for military duty? By law, they are required to hold their jobs open and available, but nothing more. Sears is voluntarily paying the...

    Duallie.....Tire rotation?

    Easy question for you guys that have duallies. Do you rotate your tires? If so, how? Assuming these are the tires, I would think this would be the way. But I hear from some guys, they never rotate on a duallie. And yes, I am too lazy and cheap to switch the inners, because of the...

    Cat delete pipe?

    Will a cat delete pipe work on an OE system. I really have no desire to pony up $450 for a full system with the cat and muff delete pipes. So I am thinking to just replace the cat with the test pipe, since the cat is the biggest power hog / heat builder.

    1st real tow for my F350

    Took a trip down to Springfield IL with the 65 Catalina in tow this weekend. It's the first real work my F350 has had. What an outstanding vehicle. Set the cruise to 60 mph (2k rpm), got in the right lane, turned the air on and just relaxed. I never felt pressured in a stop or a turn since...

    19.5" Conversion - Who to use?

    Hello everybody. I am tossing around the idea of putting a 4.5" Donahoe lift on my truck. If I do this, I want to convert over to 19.5's to fill the wells and still be able to tow my car and trailer. The 19.5's fit the bill in both regards. Now the big question. I only know of The...

    Towing question

    Hey all, I have a question. I just brought home the new car trailer and need some knowledge. I have decided I would like to go with tow straps instead of chains when I haul the car around. If I were using chains, this qustion would be unnecessary. Buy chains with hooks, buy binders, go towing...
