Sorry to hear of the bad luck on the roadways, Sean.

Sooner or later.........

After having experienced two flats in one day, I can feel your pain Sean. Luckily for me, one was on the trailer, the other on the truck, and I had spares. (And Allstate roadside assistance for one, CHP towing for the other)

what took the most time sean? stock jack a bit short and slow to operate?

 

Tippy stock jack on soft dirt, searching for a 2x6, overall sweaty work.

 

stock jack works quite well considering..... i carry 4 2x6 blocks to use as height or add a nice footing.

dunno how much your on board air puts out maybe get a 1/2" lug gun?

no real easy way to change a tire on these tanks with out breaking a sweat....

my personal best is 10 or 15 min to change a tire, from the time i opened the hood for the red hot tools till the time i had the tools bolted back down and re warming.... just as roadside service pulled up i pulled away.

i take pride in knowing how to change a tire in my age group, not many know or want to know.

 

I would hope TO SEE MY SoCal Brothers Stop by:

Paraplegic North Hills artist creates Transformer-inspired sculpture out of car parts


Man Turns Van Into "Transformer" | NBC Southern California

.....The roughly 2,200-pound robot sculpture, which holds a “spinning blade of death” and is topped with a rotating communication device, towers in his front yard near his large wheelchair accessible, four-wheel drive “Maus Van.” He jokingly named his van, which he bought last July and now has a front end that he converted into a 2004 Super Duty pickup truck, after the heavy World War II Maus tank due to its “horrible” gas mileage.....

 

There's an idea for a chapter meet

 

I AM GAME, I GOT THE WHERE, YA'LL TELL ME WHEN. Any times good for me

 

im only a couple miles away!

 

Went and took some photos of the my truck today.
The truck is coming along nicely.

 

Looking great Anthony!

 

Missouri looks to be treating you RIGHT!

We'll be in Wildwood in November. Maybe we can both free up some time for a quick eyeball.

Your photography skills are shining through!

We will defiantly have to have a plan of attack to meet up.

 

A man has to take his small pleasures where he can. For me it was opening the hood on the truck and seeing a fine layer of undisturbed dust all over the top of the engine.

Yesterday I changed the oil and fuel filters. Also got a new set of tires on the fifthwheel.

Today I'm in the middle of a coolant change. Very important on a 6.0. I've settled on fresh coolant every 2 years, and a coolant filter element every 1 year.

 

Bill, is there some kind of prohibition on using ELC in the Six-OH's?
