4 chains. One runs the balance shaft.

I was told recently that the V6 LR3s are bringing more money than the 4.4 V8 models. You guys think that’s true? I would be surprised if that was the case

Yep. It’s hurt, did a cylinder leak down test.

Well that kinda sucks.

I opened this thing up. Front chain failed. I’m getting conflicting info on this thing being a free spin engine or not. It’s a Ford Ranger engine. Anybody know about that thing? I’m finding info that says there are 2 variants of this thing. One being an interference engine, the other is not...

I think if you get it for under a grand it might be fun for a little while. But I’m sure it will have some catastrophic failure before too long. Then you have a parts truck.

Maybe it's because I took that plastic shield out of it. The tire sits perfectly, drags on front and rear but barely. And then I just tried to stab the reciever in since you mentioned it being a no go. But it clicked right in.

I just put the receiver in this one. It went in fine.

I was surprized how well that sealant that is installed in vehicles without spare tires works. I have a little chevy cruze eco(no spare). I got a big chunk of metal in a tire too close to the side wall to fix. You use the compressor that comes in the kit to push the sealant into the tire. I was...

It looks good I think. Fresh powder coated wheels. Replaced every sensor.

What did you do about a spare? This truck had a space saver and the owner wanted 5 of the 265/65s. Its tight for sure, I think I would go a little smaller just so I could stuff the spare. I had to take that plastic shield out of there too to make enough room. Truck drives great with those on it.

Deflated it slides right in. I only put about 20 lbs in it cause its going to push on the ear that the rear toe adjuster mounts to.

I just came back to see what you guys did. Cause it's not going in there like this. I'm deflating it now.

Same. That’s what I’m finding. No rubbing. I’m about to stuff the spare. Hope that fits
