How to clean up chrome ?

Oven cleaner will get the rubber or plastic off of the exhaust parts... wouldn't let it get on painted parts though.

Well you can order the tool (pinion gear holder) from the dealer for $107 and if you have the pinion gear out they will replace the seal for about $30 + parts. Figure I won't be able to use the tool...

Darkside on a 1500 nomad - Do you like this choice

I run the Dunlop SP5000 195-60/16 on my 2004 1500. When I replace the tire I will go with a more narrow tire. The tire is too wide for the rim and it creates a little bit of wobble if I shake the...

I think all things in life depend on your perspective.
I drive a 1994 F150 that I bought last year for $900 (paid in full) with 85,000 miles on her. I have a loan on my 2004 Nomad that I pay $180 a...

I'm just talking about putting the two halves of the final drive back together. You had them apart in your write up... you happen to know the torque on the bolts?

All that work and he couldn't put in the time to get rid of those bag lines. Looks like he may have ran out of money... the triple tree is still stock.
I like the look for the nomad though.
