    Considering King Ranch: interior maintenance and upgrades

    Anyone had one? Was it a pain to maintain? Thinking about going to look at this one today. https://www.cars.com/vehicledetail/c001f4d3-bb3f-4814-ad39-7957e15b6848/ Also, in 2015, the 6.7's got a power bump. Is that worth looking for? The prices seem about the same until you get to the...

    Cordless soldering Iron

    I started looking at these and kind of fell down a rabbit hole. I was going to buy the Milwaukee m12 version, but it's $91 for the tool only. And it's big. Looks like there are much smaller versions that people like. https://www.amazon.com/dp/B096X6SG13/?tag=tcg21-20 Anyone have one...

    Why is my 5r110w transmission leaking transmission fluid at the electrical bulkhead on the passenger side? The pcm is also reading code p0700. Could the two be related?

    Arkansas governor orders Syngenta to sell land

    Interesting. Syngenta is a pretty large corporation that owns 160 acres in Arkansas. The governor is ordering them to get rid of it, due to their ties to China. They own about 1500 acres total. I wonder if other states will follow suit...

    🔧 Technical Low Power Issue with Cat 3054t Engine in Telehandler

    I have this engine in a th63 telehandler...model year is somewhere around 1998. I think it's actually a perkins engine. It's all mechanical with a stanadyne rotary pump. It doesn't seem to make the power it should. When there is a load, such as moving the boom, it has a very hard time...

    3800 Help please with my whipple ax140 engine build

    When I bought this Whipple kit, it came with lots of extra parts. Some I'll use, most will just get sold. However, I'm looking for advice on the engine. I know a stock bottom end is likely strong enough, but it is also my opinion that a 500hp supercharged setup is harder on the bottom end...

    🔧 Technical Are Chinese copies of filters a thing?

    I bought one filter from rock Auto (box on the left) and two others from eBay which ended up coming from someplace in China. The china boxes are a bit different sized, and the filters are not plastic wrapped individually like the rockauto version. Are these actual Ford products?

    🔧 Technical Ford LRG 425 engine problems

    So I have this Ford engine in my scissor lift. It's a 4 cylinder fuel injected engine that can run on propane as well, but I have only run it on gas. It has somewhere around 2300 hours on it. I have a weird problem with it, where it won't start in nice weather. We've had 0° days with 40mph...

    Richard Holdener Does a supercharged 3800

    Part one, he keeps the engine stock and adds e85 and timing. Part two.... finally some mods. I sent him these headers a year ago to test. I run stock manifolds on my car because I've been saying for years that headers do absolutely nothing on these engines. Part 3 is coming soon...

    💬 OT The Good Life v.farming

    Just wanted a thread to show what farm life is like, and to kind of keep track of a few changes I have going on. I'll talk a little about how the markets affect us, how crappy this life can be, but also how good it is. So, backstory....I grew up on a small family farm. Growing up, we had...

    Gm Racing Diff fix

    Aka, the bronze washer mod. There is basically no info on the web about this, and it's an important mod, so here it is. This is the washer part number that worked for me. I was also told it's PN: K75906A, but I did not have luck with that. I ordered two different washer sets with that...

    Had some whiskey made

    Not food, hope it's ok to post this here. Some of you know that I farm. We have a small family farm that I will take over in the not so distant future. I saved a couple buckets of corn from certain fields at harvest. Contacted flyover whiskey, which is in a small town about 15 minutes...
