Re: Ugh. Pinion bearings gone after using Lucas

They say that the helical LSD doesn't need friction modifier but after I did a fluid service on mine, I had a shudder as well. I added friction modifier and it went away. Give it a try. :cash: Interesting, I've always used redline without modifier. 75W90NS. https://www.redlineoil.com/75w90-ns-gl-5-...

I have the 38 page factory diagnostic and repair manual supplement for the PW winch. This forum doesn't support the PDF file format, so I'll email it to you.

Will send you a PM for the PDF... :excited:

Re: Mojave edition.

Still got a temporary plate and your out saltin’ his ass up :lol: No salt on the west coast, we're lucky. What!? Then what do they put down to melt the snow/ice?! Sand for traction only. The Sierra Club got CalTrans to stop using melt chemicals and salt. It was killing trees around Tahoe.

Re: 3G snorkel

Thanks, for fixing the link to your build. It's nice to see what others experienced and not have surprises when I do go to start the install. My Wagon is my daily driver until I get my beater working, so It may be awhile before I start drilling. I bought the hole saw, mastic, and zinc primer already.

Re: 2008 PW 285/75/17 VS 35/12.5/17

I'm running stock height and stock PW wheels. I tried some 305/70-17 Goodyear's that were about the same height as 285/75. 34"tall. It was probably my favorite size that I have tried, but they don't make a decent tire/brand in that size anymore. Didn't seem to have any negative other than a slight l...

Re: 3G snorkel

Ordered one from Rocky Road Outfitters today Jan.2023. Will see if they can still get them.
I hit a big puddle of water at speed, at night, in a rainstorm. Splashed big time up on the hood. Glad it didn't hydro-lock.

Re: Fire Extinguisher

Mule inspired me a few months ago to install one. This is a 2.5 lb halotron from H3R Performance. I was going to install a dry chemical on the passenger side but lost interest due to the PITA install.
Yeah my floor is dirty so what? Yes that is yellow Labrador hair, it's everywhere.

Re: Factor 55 ultra hook

I got their flatlink multimount. Keep it in the center console when not in use. bought 4 Crosby 3/4" shackles and some tree-saver straps.
I don't use the factory Hook anymore.

Re: Help. My power wagon doesn’t always start

Sell the truck, or trade it in, and buy a new one from a different dealer. Seriously, you got a lemon (No pun intended) that may have been root cause of something dealer had a hand in.

Re: Improving fuel mileage

IDK about the newer Power Wagons, mine has been 10MPG combined hwy/cty since it was new. The Free spin kit didn't do anything except about 1mpg increase on the highway, with a tailwind. Parking it for extended periods of time is the best method.

Re: Overland Rack - Nutzo Industries Rambox 2

Looks like it is built like a brick house. They definitely have taken some ideas from Leitner designs.
Custom built. You pay extra for that.
