    Chinese Diesel Heaters????

    I'm in the middle of fitting one of the Chinese units in to a plastic tote. Hoping to make the whole unit self contained so I can just toss it in the truck and go. I plan to use my hub style fish house. for the couple of times a season I will need heat, it's just not worth spending $700+ for a...

    Let's Talk Cast Iron

    Cowboy Kent is the man. Cook, shove the large food bits out, pour in a little water, warm back up, scrape with your wood utensil, wipe out or rinse out, wipe dry, put back on the flame until the pan is hot to your finger, wipe on some flax seed oil on all sides, leave it until cool, store.

    Convince me I should keep lugging around my hi-lift

    I have one, I don't always bring it. I think about each trip and then decide. Also, in a large enough group, there will always be one person with a high lift. I tend to ask everyone as a group and we decide who will bring theirs and who will leave theirs home but substitute something else.

    New Member with stock truck needs advice

    Don't bother with the front or rear bumpers. Get one of the rear hitch mount D ring adapters. Tires. Go with the Pro-4X size of 265/75/16. The ABLS system your truck has is pretty decent, it modulates the brakes to help with traction. Don't bother with spacer lifts, it will limit your wheel...

    2010 Pilot Lift Kit Problems - HELP!

    While your carrier bearing may or may not be worn, it was NOT modified in any manner during the lift. You need to NOT fall prey to "throwing parts" at the vehicle and concentrate on areas that WERE MODIFIED in the lifting process.

    2010 Pilot Lift Kit Problems - HELP!

    Also, do the CV's pop in to the differential or bolt on to the side? with the added lift, is it possible the CV's are too short and are being "pulled" apart as the vehicle runs down the road? Since you brought the wheels down in relation to the differential, that distance between hub and...

    2010 Pilot Lift Kit Problems - HELP!

    I'm still trying to understand the reasoning to this. the differentials were NOT moved in the vehicle. the only thing changed was spacers placed on top of the struts. The only thing changed is the angles the CV axle needs to move between the differential housing and the hub at each wheel. I'm...

    2010 Pilot Lift Kit Problems - HELP!

    Just to clarify, the vibration started after the lift? I'm not at all familiar with Pilots, does this thing have independent suspension front and rear? if so, being this is just a spacer lift, the only thing you did was space the shock travel down. Are you introducing a bind of some sort in...

    How to wire a winch

    I have mine wired straight to the battery, I never disconnect it. I do keep a cable cutter in the driver's door pocket in case something goes wonky, then I can simply cut the power cable.
