A friend in IL wants to move a tiny home to MI. Something happened with construction and the width is 8'-8" instead of the allowable 8'-6" max width. Any clues about getting permits to move something like that thru IL, IN and MI to get to its destination? I'd like to help her out and I'm all ears.

Just got a 2015 to replace my tired and rusted '03. Love it so far, and was able to silence the seatbelt chime, but the alert that my door is open while the key is still in the ignition is driving me crazy. I haven't been able to find a way to easily silence it. (yet) I read somewhere of an...

Just picked up a used 2015 Tradesman 2500 4x4 to replace my '03. Really like the truck so far, but the lack of map lights is pretty annoying; enough so, that I plan to add the center console from a wrecked truck. Just wondering if others have done this and have some tips. I'm guessing that...

Removed from my '94. Straight, but rusty. Local welding shop does sandblasting and powdercoating very reasonably so I may take it there first. Pete -- email address removed --

I took it off my '03 a couple years ago to install a plow. Hate to part with it, but unlike the Ranch Hand on my '94, (which I'm also parting with) plow and bumper won't play together. Bottom tube is bent (kink near center) from a hasty tree stump removal. (was against vertical rail until a...

Driven about a week ago and parked next to garage. We got a bunch of snow last night and I wanted to plow the road this morning. Temp is about 20° and it cranked normally but wouldn't start. I cycled the key to re-heat grid heaters, but the light went out right away. (never remember it doing...

My 03 is having a fairly high frequency shudder and I was guessing I had a bad U joint in the driveshaft. I jacked a rear wheel up and gave it a spin and it went very smoothly and easily and the joints appear to be fine. (I greased them again anyway) It seems to be most noticeable when coming...

I need to use my truck without rear drive shaft for a couple errands tomorrow. Do I plug the hole with something or leave the slip yoke in. (wouldn't it fall out?) I have the seal and boot out and the outer edge is a bit bugered up, but I could probably tap it back in place. I was going to...

We're having a family gathering next month and both my parents (84) will be there along with their youngest great grandson. (2 months) Both my brothers and their families will be at our house with my nieces and nephews. We reserved rooms at a nice hotel in town for my parents, both brothers...

My defrost door broke and to get into it, I need the A/C system emptied. I called a local shop hoping for a cheap (or FREEon days that end in "Y") recovery of the refrigerant. I was told it would cost about 35 bucks for the half hour it would take. Probably drains out on it own much faster and...

My old plow truck won't start. I moved it into the garage about 2 weeks ago to work on the plow. It needed a jump (pretty typical for how long it sits sometimes and it only has 1 battery) but it started and ran fine. After rebuilding the plow pump, I couldn't get it to start at all. When I put...

What if you met and were able to give your feedback and suggestions for the next design? What would you ask for? What should be changed, kept, etc. ?

Anybody got ideas on where to find a BFG 315 tire in the Portland area? I gave my brother a set of 4 (my old ones) and he hit a chunk of metal and tore one up. He doesn't want to put a brand new one on (or buy a set of 4 :eek:) so if somebody knew of a place to try out there, we'd appreciate...

OK, maybe I'm dreaming here, but I just went on a 100 mile ride with my brother, a couple of his sons and and a handful of their friends. I hadn't ridden any kind of bike for years but my nephew put me on his '06 Kawasaki Z1000. :cool: Now I'm HOOKED!! :eek: After the ride, all the bikes were...

I talked to a friend of mine in Butte tonight and told him we were planning on visiting them in a couple weeks and heading up to Glacier. He said the wildfires are making things pretty smokey and it might not be the best time to come. I think he understands I'm in northern Michigan, used to...

I'm thinking of replacing my upper and lower ball joints and I'm wondering who has done it and how it went. I know the hub removal can be a task of its own. I'm thinking I will get the hub puller to make that part easy. (I did my right side U joint, but I'm skeptical of the amount and capability...

I just noticed my right rear lens on my 03 is broken. Not sure if it was a parking lot accident, (seems high) act of vandalism, (people wouldn't do that, would they?) or something else. Anybody know where to pick one up cheap?

Not sure of the replacement cost with only 1 original key. I'm thinking about locating the the chip I have now next to the sensor module, and then I could just use regular keys. The truck is looking old and not a theft target. (low crime area) Anybody know anything about modifying these...

I got a Jacobs exhaust brake on a trade and was told it was for an 03. I got my elbow out tonite and compared to the new one, and it fits inside it. Hindsight is 20/20, and of course there's a little tag on it Cummins P/N 4089596 Model ISB TMVO MY04. 5 Jacobs P/N 032725 I'm seeing...

I know I've seen it before, but I seem to have lost it. Where is the little guide for the syntax for search words, phrases, etc. ? It might be nice to have a link for that right on the search page. (Or is it there and I'm missing it?) Thanks, Pete
