RE: "P" tire designation vs. "LT"

Before you look at LT tires, look at the newer XL rated P Metric tires. I came across this rating awhile back and looked into what the difference was, between the 3 ratings.......Amazing, the P Metric XL is basically the same as an LT load range C/D at a much better price. It has a stiffer sidewall than a basic P metric, will carry the same or close to the same weight as an equivalent LT and can be aired up to 55#.
Just put a set of Hankook Dynapros on my TV and I wanted a P rated tire for ride comfort. LT tires ride harsh. They can Handel the load and the ride is smooth. They are an XL rated tire with a 108 weight rating.

RE: Doberman

My wife has joked with me saying we should cross them with a standard poodle and call them doberdoddles.
:) As long as it is a joke. Designer dogs in my opinion are muts that naive people pay ridiculous prices for.
Ya but they have a lot less health problems that the "pure" breeds do.

RE: F150 with 4.6 V-8 & 3.55 gears

I have a 2000 E150 high top conversion van that I tow my race car with. Car and trailer weigh 5000-5500 #. It has a 4.6 and 3.55 gears. I have air bags and a WD hitch. Tows fine through the mountains of PA with OD off. Gets 10 mpg. Have taken many 500-1000 mile trips no problem.

RE: Battery Selector Switch

Mines an 1989 vintage and did not have cut off switches. I just installed the terminal ends with the knobs on my negatives so I can disconnect them when storing.
They cost $5-6 each.

RE: 2002 E350 - Gear Change Complications

Just go with a smaller diameter tire that will bring up your ratio. It won't get you .75 but it will get you something. Whats wrong with towing with 3.73s?

RE: 460 Engine Scanner

What year chassis. I believe OBD-I was until 1995 and OBD-II was 1996 up. Someone correct me if I wrong with my dates. The above scanner is for OBD-I. I have that unit for my rig.

RE: water pump

The small vent is just that. Its a vent to allow air to come out of water tank while filling. I had a problem once where my pump was not getting water, there is a small screen on the fitting inside the tank that was clogged . Cleaned it and all was good.

RE: Do you Tow heavy or race⦠I need new u-joints

Spicer with no zerk fitting. A greasable U joint is hollow to allow the grease to travel. A non zerk U joint is solid and alot stronger. They come grease for life. Every racer will tell you solid U joints.

RE: Crabbing

Might be a bit early for crabbing. NJ crabs start about mid to late June. Depending on water temp. We used to use chicken wings on string with a small weight. Drop if straight down.when line starts moving away pull in slowly. About 12-18" from surface scoop with a large crab net. Takes some practice but fun for the kids.

RE: Going to look at this Class C today

1991. Almost 49K miles. I'm not looking for a 'keeper' for years & years. If it takes me camping 3-5 times this summer & a few more in the Fall & Spring I'll be happy!
So we have basically the same chassis. Is yours on a '90 chassis? Do you have overdrive? Probably a kingpin front end, thats a good thing. If kept lubed they last forever. Better then ball joints. Post upper some pics.

RE: 2004 Ford E450

Theres a hatch on top the dash. Pry it up with a screwdriver and this is where all the vacuum lines connect. You'll have to do trial and error to determine which line is broken. I used to maintain a fleet of E350 that deliverd live stock to pet stores. Have had more then a few mice get loose. For some reason the love to eat the vacuum lines. I guess thats better then electric wires.

RE: Going to look at this Class C today

Good luck with it. The 460 engine with the C-6 trans is pretty much bullet proof. Thirsty but bullet proof. Is it fuel inject or carb? The ad is pulled, I don't remeber what year it was.
I'm sure there are plenty of us on here with the old money pits to help you out if you have any questions.
