  1. I vote for the dynabeads. I run them without any issues. Nice and smooth to 100+mph... I am running 35" tires.
  2. Nothing wrong with the centramatic system, but I think a much cheaper solution is dynabeads. They also have an advantage as they can move within the tire and account for needed weight on the inside or outside.
  3. Fuel line would definitely be your best option. The only other thing I would suggest is to use the stock piece of hose like I did in the pictures above.
  4. It should have come up no doubt... Pretty much every 24v truck I have seen without this mod done has their radiator at least partially plugged up. Most don't even know it because they either don't tow much or live in a climate where it doesn't matter a whole lot. I guarantee when you tow 15000 pounds in the mountains you will know quickly if you have a cooling issue....
  5. Here are my pics. I got some of the vent end near the rear of the engine - it exits almost above the front pinion.I used my stock rubber hose from the puke bottle... I cut off the "U" portion and turned it upside down to go around the radiator hose. I used slip 90's and glued everything but the last connection before it goes down, that one is a threaded 90 so I can unscrew the down-tube portion if I need to pull it out.
  6. If you have not done this mod and have anywhere near 100,000 miles or more I can pretty much guarantee that your radiator is at least half plugged up...
  7. I will try to get a couple pics of my vent setup along with the end near the rear of the engine and where it drops out. Should be able to upload them tomorrow.
  8. Got my radiator pulled and cleaned last night and my vent tubing done today. I am so glad to have that puke bottle gone. It made such a awful mess of the whole front of the engine. Best mod by far.
