    Tin Grilles

    This is a request to the admins: Can we add a group for the 1972-1980 generation of trucks? The Tin Grilles, this can only help grow this site. Thanks for considering!

    Drain gas tank

    I just bought a 1979 W150 and it has been sitting for approximately 12 years. Needless to say the gas tank needs to be drained. It is almost full. I can not for the life of me get a siphon hose into the tank. I started out with a garden hose and have worked my way down to 1/4" hose with no luck...

    Power Wagons ... Post em up!

    Picked this one up yesterday for $1000! 1979 W150 Power Wagon. 360 ci, 727 auto. Needs a lot of work, as you would expect from a $1k truck, but it's solid and rust free. Let the wrenching begin!

    Thoughts on a regear with 37s?

    I'm still trying to have 5.13s installed in my '17 PW. Using AAM part #40136007 for the front & #40030646 for the rear. Of you guys that have had this done, are there any extra or odd parts needed to install? Ring gear spacer in the front? Does the pinion bushing in the rear have to be replaced...

    Cooper stt pro vs milestar patagonia

    AEV High mark fender flairs, Thuren front bumper for those flairs, change out wheels for correct offset (-22mm I believe), and address moving axle forward 1" as well as possibly more lift.

    Those are the gears I have on order for my '17 PW.

    Thoughts on a regear with 37s?

    I'm having a local mechanic install the gears. The truck has 37-13.5-17 STT Pros on it now & when these are worn out I'll be going up to 40s.

    Cooper stt pro vs milestar patagonia

    I've got 37-13.5-17 STT Pros on mine with 14k on them with no complaints. Good wear and balanced just fine. I'll be sticking with Coopers for my next set as well, 40-13.5-17 though.

    I'm going with AAM 5.13s. They have been ordered and will be installed ASAP. Really looking forward to it!

    Nevermind TPMS and the light, what is the optimal psi for an unloaded PW?

    I run 45 front & 40 rear with the tpms set to 35 with an AEV Procal and locked in by dealer.

    Gears inquiry

    I have a 2017 Power Wagon on 37s and prepping for 40s. This is why the need for 5.13 ring & pinion. I've searched and found the AAM part #s here and my mechanic has searched online. We both have come up with these #s. Front part #40136007 Rear part #40030646 AAM lists the front 5.13 for GM &...

    Problems that arise from tire size upgrade questions.

    After putting 37s on my '17 there was a noticeable performance loss, not drastic but it was there. Mileage took a hit in town but improved on the freeway. I added cat back exhaust and a Peddle Commander. The difference with those two alone I feel brought it back to where it was but the truck...
