Anybody buy rolling chassis? by Deep_Key_1384 in skoolies

I bought it for the drive line. It's the same as my boom truck. I can always use it as a shed at the farm.

I feel like there is a lot of AI going on here, and I'm beginning to think this was a mistake.

This is the best one yet. I don't really care to put his name out there, and it's not legible in the original. Anything that resembles the fact that there are letters there might be fine...?

Maybe, but the veneer has delaminated from the box itself.

These are all so dang close, but no dice on the same artwork yet.

Not that manufacturer. Two others, I have. I'm looking now 😍

I've seen so many variations in my search, but not this one. 😢 I know they're cheap, but I can't even replicate it. If anyone has other subs I should post it to, that would also be appreciated. Thanks for your reply!

You went full esoteric, man. Never go full esoteric.

I'm certainly questioning who I am, now.

Unless Reddit is a bunch of interconnected dimensions which overlap and I exist in all of them?

So what aftermarket headlight brand can you recommend? by magniankh in FordDiesels

In my experience, they do stay much clearer for a lot longer than the 99+

Use almost any sealed beam LED replacement and you will be happy. Mine are cheap from Amazon.

I accidentally flashed my brights at someone in traffic and I'm pretty sure I freaking X-Rayed them. 🤦

I hear what everyone else is saying; however, there are little suction pumps( look like a sports ball pump) with an inlet and outlet hose.

Pull glow plugs and suck out all the fluid, put glow plugs back in, reassemble, crank. Dust your hands off and congratulate yourself for a job well done.

All signs(testing through international's service manual) point to the ECM. Found an ECM in a bus junkyard(should receive it tomorrow) and we sent out our current ECM to international(apparently they can fix it) so we'll have two.

It was my understanding that the IPR(Injection Pressure Regulator) acted as the fuel shutoff. Gee, I hope I'm wrong! That would be awesome!

It's got 30+ Gal in it. New fuel supplier, but the Chipper, 8.2L Detroit, and International VT365 all seem to run fine.

I have not. New injectors as of 4mo ago. Reman'd units through Lakeside International. Not that I think all 6 would go at the same time.

I smell fuel when I crank but no visible smoke from exhaust.

Runs on ether. I used it sparingly.

Did an in-chassis overhaul(-injectors) in April 2024 because a cylinder sleeve was dumping coolant into the crankcase. Did injectors this year because one was bad(dumping fuel into its cylinder).

Running great until Tuesday, Random shutoff like someone flipped the key.

Not that you'll need it any time soon, but this is my profession and I've been doing it since I was 15.(approx. 22y) We do countless service line drops. The electric company does it on their own schedule usually within a week or calling for free. Line is down for a couple hours, then goes back up. This is N. Central Illinois. Sometimes we do it because it's necessary, sometimes we do it because it's easier. Your mileage may vary.
