    Rims and tires

    I am reasonably sure the white stock rims were steel.

    Rims and tires

    Maybe you have the white stock rim (photo attached) [6 x 15] which was fitted after August 80, but the centre recess is not the same and that recess looks too small for the hub cap version with the tabs removed. (shown below) I believe that prior to that date they fitted split rims 6 or 5.5...

    Tire sizes, lift

    Aah, the rear leaf springs: I acquired a set of rear leaf springs that had more tension than my originals but with the modified (for winch racing) and substantial spring mounts on the rear they were fractionally too short which moved the axle forward - just didn't look right. I spoke with the...

    Tire sizes, lift

    Thanks, my truck has 60 series engine and transmission and axles with coil sprung front end with radius arms and no antiroll bars front or rear (more articulation when off roading) so is far from stock. It was an ex-winch racing truck so I have just refined it over the years. The turning circle...

    In the engine bay there should be a short (8 in) flex fuel pipe between the body/chassis mounted fuel line from the tank and the engine to allow for the engine's movement.

    Tire sizes, lift

    I have attached a photo that might help. The red one , Jonnie's, has 33/12.5/15 (could be 35s?) on it and I think he had a 2in lift. The white one has 31/10.5/15 and mine has a 2.5in lift. My body is stock with just the narrow flares to make it legal. I tried his wheels on mine but didn't like...

    Hi Jim, The shot air filter won't help. Change it. Did you change the flexible pipe between the chassis and the engine? As they get old they rot/decay internally thereby reducing the amount of fuel that flows. I had this same problem years ago and replaced that flexible fuel line and all has...

    Hi Edgar, I suggest you phone SOR because the catalogue is about regularly sild parts. I have always had better results for odd parts by phoning them. Worth a try. Somewhere I have the info of a US company that does secondhand parts, but I need to have a bit of a search. Rodger
