Whats going on Dave? This is me from cary. I have been scanning this forum for a couple month's now, very informative people around here.

I am trying to get a bio-diesel processor set up. You don't know anyone around here that has one do you?

Grant I don't know anyone doing it around here. I have heard of some but don't know who they are. Hey why don't you buy my old lift and tires and say the hell with mileage....

Ashley,

Thanks a lot for your help. Just picking your brain and seeing your processor really made since of all of the confusing advice/ideas that you read in forums. I am very interested in starting this process, I am just deciding exactly which unit I want to purchase. Again thank you very much for your help.

Grant

Dave, I drive a 95 PSD, I don't think the lifts are the same. What size lift do you have? I am looking about 2-3 in, just so I can have stiffer springs up front b/c of the TTB crap sagging.

Grant it's a 6" left spring lift. it was made for the weight of a diesel so it was too stiff for my gasser. I know it fits 99-03 models. I have some 38.5x14.5x16 Xterrains with wheels too but I don't think they would fit yours. I up graded mine to a 10" SuperLift with 41" IROCKs. No it rides much better.

Grant...I have a guy here in the office who's toyed with building a processor small enough to fit on his trailer and he lives in Morrisville. If you want to talk with him about it in details (Iknow he's been heavy into bio-diesel for a few years now), send me a message with contact info and I'll pass it on to him.

Ashley, being as you already have one together, would you mind if I forwarded your info on to him as well?

-AJ
