@decentgarage14 күн бұрын
For the bearings I go by two things. If I clean the grease off and there is coloration from over heating I'll replace. I also check the races for scoring. The rear axle is lubricated by axle gear oil so no need to grease. 👍

Hey Tim, know this video is a year old now but I am trying to educate myself for a crew cab build in my near future. Did you end up using the chassis harness from that 89 cummins parts truck? I saw that you had to extend the harness for the cab lights, just curious how everything else worked out. Did you have to extend for the tail lights or any other items? The engine and cab harness seems easy enough, pretty much plug and play. Thank you sir!

@wesscarey447518 күн бұрын
Again, be very careful and due research on how changing the stock tire and rim size can affect a vehicle. A wider rim and tire will change the leverage on the steering gear box, frame and steering linkage. All can fail sooner due to the added stress. Taller tire diameter will change leverage and overall gearing causing reduced braking performance, reduced towing capacity and reduced fuel milage from incorrect engine RPM. Factory engineers design vehicles taking into consideration many factors. There are very good reason's they pick a certain size rim and tire. Same engineering also goes into the height of the vehicle. Adding lifts to the suspension should also be done with caution and an understanding of what unwanted consequences may arise. Aftermarket companies are in business to make $$$$. Often customers are not aware of potential problems that can and will occur. LOVE this channel and you do really good work on these trucks!
