Sharing my projects, How-To videos, and product reviews. Whether its motorcycles, cars, trucks....if it has wheels you'll find it here. I hope these videos help you with your projects!
Thanks for this man, I'm building a 93 Sporty and it seems we have very similar ideas, so it's great to see someone doing what I need to see. Thank you.
I just bought a 738 new with auto coupler. Mower rattles and makes noises. I think it's the part that holds the coupler in place. Does your mower deck rattle?
Do you mean the bracket connecting the block and the transmission? Its just a brace between the engine and transmission. I believe its actual name is an adapter plate bracket brace. From what I heard, it might not be installed on all years of the truck.
Red can be a difficult color sometimes especially on larger vehicles. I was a little iffy on the color of this truck originally, but it really grew on me
How long was your replacement bolts for the foot peg my bike came with new forward controls but the holes on the primary are empty and I need the bolts
Coating the concave part towards the from of the truck is probably a good idea. That part catching and holding salt and debris is what caused the rust in the first place.
PS: you DO know that you can purchase new keystone bars that are internal wiring ready for like $80 bucks right? That way you won't sheer off the casings and ground out your wires after fishing them through a drill hole. But hey whatta I know, only been working on hogs for 31yrs
No actually I didn't know that, can you share the link to those? I never claimed to be an expert here, this is my first time doing this type of build. I am just building my bike and sharing the progress along the way. Always happy to hear tips and criticism from people who know more than me. Thanks for watching!
Have you seen the bank's differential cover for the rear? I have it on my truck and I'm really happy with it but he does a lot of fluid dynamics videos on why not to run the flatbacks.
Use a sewn yellow buffing wheel with brown tripoli.Then sewn cotton flannel wheel with white compound. I sand with 320 then 500 grit before buffing. Mirror finish.
Been fighting my 2500 for a year, 3 shift motors. Finally got it. Connectors were dirty on wire harness side of the plug. Took a little round brush and cleaner to remove. Put old actuator on, works.
Oh interesting, I have giving my wiring a once over but haven't seen any issues. I have had luck with the last replacement though, its still going without issues. Sounds like there could be multiple reasons why these have issues, thanks for sharing!
I bought mine used for 140 bucks, I got a fairly heavy bike but it's holding it up pretty good with the retainer bar keeping the weight off the jack, im pretty happy with it because it's actually almost brand new, but harbor freight has jacked the price up a bit from what it used to be so I'd have to really think hard about paying what their asking for one these days with the economy in the tank because of you know who.
Hello if you have a voes but you want to disconnect it you need to put the switch 1 in position Off ? It s correct ? Can that help if you have a kickstart ? The bike have kick and electric start is a shovel? Thanks for your answer
Hmmm, I am not sure. I would think it wouldn't make much difference at start, since it only advances with vacuum, but I haven't had the pleasure of working with many kick start bikes. I would reach out to dynatek with that question, their customer support has been great for any questions I had. Best of luck!
I had to look at your page to realize a kirby is a vacuum cleaner haha. If the kirby is made of aluminum or another metal that can be polished I would think something like should work. If its small enough to pick up and maneuver around a bench buffer this would probably be great, if its larger or awkward it might be easer to use something where you move the buffing wheel around the part instead. Out of curiosity, is polishing vacuums a common thing?
Vacuum collectors like to polish their Kirby's and royals or any aluminum vacuum cleaners for that matter because we want to restore them and mint condition!
Awesome video friend! At 100 some hours with no trans oil I would of had second thoughts on buying so hope you got lucky. There is a fuel pressure relief screw to vent before changing the fuel filter. You definitely took the fear of doing this job out! Thanks
You're right, dynamic is usually the best way to dial it in but the static timing is a great starting point. I installed this before the bike was built/running, at some point I would like to do some dynamic timing to get it just right.
Just got 8” model, actually made by VEVOR, instructions show the spacer mounted inboard between body and behind inner flange: Only the outer flange and retainer nut on the outside😵💫
Yea seems to be some variation, even HF has two sets of instructions saying different things haha. Spacers inboard definitely makes the most sense though.
Yea, I was hoping I wouldn't have to but quickly realized it was necessary. I also should have done the ball joints while I was in there, they went bad not too long after...
9:27 those terminal protectors keep the leaking acid from coming in contact with the terminals. The terminals post although sealed, do leak some acid and vapors out of them and thats why your posts and terminals get the build up.
I see the hydro filter doesn’t come with the home maintenance kit, do you know what the correct part number is? Also, what’s the gap and torque specs on the spark plugs? Thanks for the great video!
Correct, I bought the hydro filter separate. The links to everything I used are in the description. I believe the torque on the spark plugs is 18ftlbs. Thanks for watching!
I didn't swap them around, but I needed to remove them to get the rocker box back on. If you look closely, you'll see I put them back in the same spots.
Yeah I had the same problem with mine and I took and took the die grinder and ground two flats 180° apart from each other and use the 9 sixteenths wrench on the flats work just fine and if you wanna different wheels I would go to empire abrasives and get some wheels very good quality
My 08 Dodge Ram keeps blinking 4wd low while in 2wd and then eventually serv 4wd pops up. When I change my actuator do I need to have the truck in 4wd low then?
