    Finally have heat again

    Oh lord, I see what you meant about filters, the inline filter. Duhr. I swear I'm a hot mess today lol. But indeed, if I pull the trigger on that I'll update with any insight. I'm at 7 years old too with 72,483 miles and she definitely needed a coolant flush. That orange crap the previous...

    Finally have heat again

    Oh sorry, yeah so literally all it was, was my heater core was pretty cogged up. I disconnected both heater core hoses from, not the tubes at the firewall but the next clamp down. Then I stuck a water hose nozzle in the inlet hose and ran water through until it was clear. That's when I...

    Help - Broken PCM Connector Red Locking Lever

    Just bought one of these from mouser like 5 minutes ago. My red cover broke back in March of 2023 and my OCD can't take it anymore. Should be here in a few days.

    Finally have heat again

    Oh yes, it would fog up pretty bad. I'm pretty tolerable to the cold, but the wife not so much. Luckily there was a little heat coming from the passenger vents, otherwise it definitely would have been very unbearable. But, now all is good again. Yay! lol. I saw these inline radiator filters...

    Concerned about new tire purchase!

    I've been running 40 front and about 35-38 rear for about 2 weeks now and I personally love the way they feel. The truck rides so so much better than my previous E rated tires. I love them so far. Can't wait for the winter time now.

    Finally have heat again

    I've had no heat for just about two years. I would only get a little heat from the passenger side vents so I figured I had the cursed blocked heater core. So, this past Saturday, 16 Sep, I flushed and back flushed the heater core about 3 times and did a complete coolant system flush and fill...

    New shoes

    Got the new shoes put on today. I’m definitely liking them. 315/70/17 Toyo R/T Trail.

    Concerned about new tire purchase!

    The tires I currently have for sure are NOT what came on if stock. The previous owner had them put on at some point, but I think they came stock with 275/70/17. I think from everything I've researched and people telling me on here I'll be just fine. I treat her like a baby anyway lol.

    Concerned about new tire purchase!

    Man thank you so much for all that info. I must say I feel pretty ignorant on PSI stuff for tires but that’s ok, we all learn something new sometimes. So thank you for all that good info. I will put that in my mental toolbox for future reference.

    Concerned about new tire purchase!

    Thanks for that. I've seen some YT videos on the Chalk Test and will definitely use that a guide as well.

    Concerned about new tire purchase!

    Ok good to know, I'll see what she feels like as soon as she rolls off the lift Friday morning. I'm excited to see what she looks like with her new shoes. She currently has on some Toyo Geolander M/T G003 in 285/75/17. I like em but wanted something just a little bigger. So we shall see...

    Concerned about new tire purchase!

    Ahhh, gotcha, now that makes sense. Thanks. I was Air Force Security Forces so yeah I didn't use a BMP manual lol. But I do love Vets helping Vets. Good stuff brother.

    Concerned about new tire purchase!

    Great to know, that's so much for that. Yeah, I keep looking at that max number so I'll try to not get too caught up in it. Thanks again man.

    Concerned about new tire purchase!

    So if it says the max PSI is 50, does that mean I should be fine with say 45 front and 40 rear? I'll rarely haul anything with much weight in the bed if rarely.

    Concerned about new tire purchase!

    Thanks guys I appreciate it. Makes me feel safer about putting them on now. I will definitely get the truck reprogrammed somehow to account for the new size and tire pressure. Speaking of PSI, I'm assuming the shop will know what PSI to set them at but just in case they're off, what PSI would...

    Concerned about new tire purchase!

    So yesterday I purchased 4 new tires (Toyo Open Country R/T Trail) in 315/70/17. They will be in on Friday for install. My concern is, looking at the specs again, they are Load Range D2, Load index 121 and it states on Discount Tire website that the max PSI is 50. So, I'm concerned if these...

    Toyo Open Country R/T 35x12.50 R17 121Q 10PR

    Sorry to jump in this threat, but been looking at tires a while now trying to narrow it down. I have a 2016 Power Wagon, currently with 285/75/17 tires and am trying to figure out if a Toyo R/T Trail in 315/70/17 would be sufficient for her even with a Load Range D2 and Load index 121? The...

    Which tires?

    I've thought about it. I do like the way they look for sure. I just don't know if I really need them.
  19. ryanpaulaf1

    Which tires?

    I love them, I really do, I've had no problem with them since I got the truck with them on it, and they look bad ass obviously. I just feel like they've worn down super fast. I mean I do drive 99% on pavement too though.

    Which tires?

    Thanks for all that info. The more I keep looking at the info, I'm starting to lean a little more to the K02's. I was also looking at the Falken A/T 3w in a 285/70/17, but I'm not sure I want to go down to the 70 and get the higher RPMs either. Ugh, this is tough lol. Thanks again for all...
  21. ryanpaulaf1

    Which tires?

    Ok sounds good. I can't seem to find the Falken A/T 3 W in a 285/75/17 in E, so I'll see what I can find.

    Which tires?

    It's my understanding that if I don't tow anything, which I know I won't, then a "C" load tire should be fine right?

    Which tires?

    Ok, so I have 2016 Power Wagon that has 285/75/17 Geolander M/T G003 tires and the spare, from when I bought it a year ago. I live in Bellevue, NE so I get every driving condition there is. I honestly do no off-roading, sadly, so I definitely don't need a dedicated mud/off-road tire. She's my...

    Buying a power wagon just because it’s bad @$$

    I won't lie, I bought it just because it's a "Power Wagon". I have used all this badassery to take me to work and around town and I've used the winch once to pull some bushes out by the house. That's about it. She's bone stock and I'm A Okay with it.

    What Seat covers are on your Power Wagon

    Don't get me wrong, these do look pretty neat. They're just not something I'd probably ever go with honestly. But to each their own. Seriously they do look very neat though.
