Wild and Free

Life of diesel engines and fuel system components in pretty much every industry except general personal automotive is measured in total gallons of fuel burned. Compression testing is always most accurate on a hot engine and as stated above consistancy across the board is more important than an actual set # unless you are dealing with 2 strokes.

The AAM diff cover gasket is similar to the auto tranny pan gaskets, metal with silicone type sealing surface totally reusable forever unless it gets damaged.

You got a bore scope? I would not be installing the new injectors until I did a visual inspection of the piston and bore.

There was a nice hog taken recently in montana.

fishing was good for me 78569 last weekend..........................................

This is on an 05 CR, there is no Apps, last that used them was early 03 cr's yet., also the in tank pumps are super reliable now and the CR cp3 doesn't require the fuel that the VP44 needs. A 2 micron filter added between the OEM filter and the CP3 is adequate on these.

Wife and I came across this one from Willie nelson over the weekend and both love it. BTW why can't I get the videos to embed like before the site was upgraded? Used to be a movie icon to embed but I can't figure it out anymore? https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=L5xafQXg1yI

CSM you are focusing on a few of the people involved and not the primary subject of government overreach and infringing on private property rights. This is a long very very deep subject of which I have done tons of reading on and other forums have dissected this through many threads and pages of debate and learning. Like I posted earlier there are always a few tards who show up and make it look like the whole bunch are nut jobs, the so called militia came on their own accord and are NOT the "Bundy Militia". If everyone in this country had the constitutional knowledge of the laws of the land that the Bundies do we wouldn't even be having this conversation but when there are more people that have jobs which are a result of big government how many people do you think are going to bite the hand that feeds them as is the problem in Oregon and the area and towns close to the refuge there?

Sorry for starting the massive thread derailment back to wasting fossil fuels to start forest fires as a result of the BLM mismanagement of the resources..................

One has to realize the location again. And the primary source of income up there is the Tar sands and gold mines as well as other natural resources so folks income is pretty good and everything else follows, here in ND we are coming off the highs of the last few years Bakken oil boom that caused the same issues with pricing......................supply and demand especially more prominent in the harsher northern areas.

That's what I am saying...........................careful or the feds will take it away and kick said folks off their land an open it up for the whole world. If I lived closer I can't say I would not have been one of the folks arrested for standing up for our rights and exposing government corruption. Not saying a few there had other issues and agendas but most are normal every day folks including the Bundies. Only the left leaning idiots would remotely consider them to be wackos.................................

The Bundies and supporters are all now behind bars for that style of thinking. Just read a story about the last 4 that stood down today and the married couple are from Mikes neck of the woods in Riggins ID.

Coming from a large farm with lots of rocks which I spent a good majority of my ute picking and moving off fields when I look at that picture I see a very large rock pile....................................I hate rocks!!! No wonder I like sandy beaches so much better, I have a different perspective than most.

Whats the deal with the big aluminum box tied into the intake system? All that work and then he has the ugliest upper radiator hose wrapped with electrical tape and a worthless old school worm clamp on it......................

I never let mine get oil and or grease build up in the first place, I am so super anal about even a few specs of dirt collecting and fix all leaks as soon as they appear or just keep some small ones sprayed clean at every service, I keep a case of non chlorinated brake cleaner on hand at all times and spray down any and all oil messes as soon as the job is done.

That should buff out..........................

That sucks.

You my friend got a heck of a deal in a couple ways, the price is awesome to say the least and the B&W is the best hitch on the planet period. I just spent 600 bucks to have A B&W turn over ball installed in my 2010 1500 hemi, 450 for the hitch and 150 to install. Now wish I had shopped around a bit but the shop I had do it is awesome so I don't mind keeping the local small town shops going that way. I have the same one in my 05 cummins as well. My 02 had a lay down ball gooseneck hitch in it but the towing capacity was lower and it needs a bigger hole cut in the box than a B&W.

That the one lol.

I am waiting for the Ventura / Mcafee train to roll out of the station...................................

HaHa no hard feelins just my dry humor coming off wrong..............................but I still disagree with the staements about the pauls lol. Rubio is at the bottom of my radar in many many ways, he scares me, just one of those gut feeling things I can't explain.

Wow..............just WOW!!! If this site had a bad reputation plug I would have zinged you there CSM. There was not a single word in your last post I agree with.

Me and others think Rand may have pulled up early looking for a VP or cabinet position with one of the potential candidates left, all find it odd he pulled with a 5th place finish in Iowa beating out several others who spent a ton more money, too bad he drug Cruz through the mud in the last debate though, they should have tag teamed Rubio instead.

I am still on the fence with Ben Carson too. Think I would prefer him over the rest as of right now. Will just have to wait and see after another few primaries and see who all else shakes out.
