[Conrad-BJ70]

Welcome!

Fantastic 70!!!!

 

[Fetzer]

have you guys not put your trucks on bigger tires then 33" is it illegal to make bigger

 

[Jimbo4x4]

Welcome aboard Fetzer.

We don't fit big fat tyres here because we don't need to, we don't really need to traverse the snow and ice like you do.. there are a few who fit them here but they're generally just show cars made to look good and never really get used.

Jim.

Hi again!,

how is it., now I bought a new head , and it had to let service work all the valve seats and valve tunnel which comes throug the head

bought a new valve and new diesel spiss , and new glowpins plugs, and all bolts witch go to exhaust and air intake.. All this cost my other hend!
and when i was puzzle this all together i saw the exhaust manifold bolt holes are not the same, i needed to let the same service drill new holes in the head.. okey thats okey now!
1 day later it i got it together! of course, there was more problems. the camshaft dosent fit the head!! if I turn the camshaft it will hit the head top, there is not enough space between head and shaft!

do someone know if there is several types of these rocker arms 2l-t head??

thx
