UPS truck's also have a service life of 25 year's, so some times tire sizes go obsolete in that time frame, i know about obsolete tires & sizes myself. . . Mike

Hey now let's not forget the Goodyear's Commercial tires like G177 Duraseals ? or the Firstone T831's both are very strong tires. G177's: T831s: both great tires . . . Mike

:cheers: it'll be fine :cheers: just fine :thumbsup: Mike

I'm not worried truck ran most of December with 20-50 super tech oil that was 2 years old n had 50 miles on it, it's got 10-40 AMSOIL now . . . So i highly doubt that there will be a noticeable difference between 75-90 and 75-140, both are 75w so they should be the same cold, it not it'll get over it . . . Mike

:yes: :rotf: :rotf: :rotf: :hmm: :rotfl2: :rotfl2: :rotfl2: :yes: Mike

So go ahead n use the 75w-140 i got now ? . . . Mike

:yes: i know ain't it a hoot :rotfl2: :rotf: Mike

I was just saying 75w is 75w ? i already have or rather had a 5gal pale of the 75-140 is why i was asking. . . Mike

I would have to say let you friends do this to there truck's, while you do a little cutty cut and some zappy zappy welding and do it the right way. then see who's truck comes out better. Mike

:cheers: Good point the best point of them all :cheers: The ring gear will end up on the wrong side on the pinion ;) it'll do 70mph backward but only15-25mph forward :rotfl2: :yes: then you'll have rebuild your engine and starter so it runs backward :rotfl2: :rotf: :yes: :thumbsup: Mike

So then i could go with the 75w-140 as the 140w will offer a bit more protection when it get's hot and still be the thin 75w when starting off cold . . . Mike

what ? fuel mileage ? where did i say that was a factor ? Mike

75w-90 Severe service good suggestion, i was thinking that in my mind but my mind was saying go 75w-140 . . . Mike

what kind of lube goes into the AX-4 4spd ? Gear lube ? AFT ? Syncromesh ? Mike

I spun my rear end, its got 3.73's :???: I thought i was told: 4spd = 3.55's. 5spd = 4.11's. :dunno: Are the 3.73's part of the "Sport truck" package :dunno: Mike

yea pretty much, his rig is a lot rougher then i thought. . . Mike

Both my friends have them. one has a set of BFG AT's that look like MT's the has a set LTX's that look like MTR's. .. Mike

I've seen many guys try to fix them up again it never ends well some body normally gets hurt, some missed crack ot weak steal lets go and boom big trouble. I know some times it's hard to let'em go but its normally safer that way. Mike

winter mark's ? i'll have to give them a look see. . . Mike

Yup there fantastic tires, i wouldn't have gone with the BFG AT tread myself I don't like them but i won't go into that. These New retreading design's n concepts they are using these days are nothing like the old style Cap's that's for sure. Mike

:hmm: I sure hope you crushed every one of them, I'd hate to think of that junk being being put back on the road :hmm: sorry but when i hear "pulled out of the woods" or "parked in a cornfield" I know what those look like, i have done some Crushing the past during the winter off season months :thumbsup: Already looked only offering Junk tires, also gave EBAY a look to . . .see above links :thumbsup: Mike

How can we save them all if we can't save his. . . :dunno: Mike

Ebay: http://motors.shop.ebay.com/i.html?_nkw ... 06.c0.m282 Crags list: http://madison.craigslist.org/pts/1534312324.html So ebay aggressive 235's or Craigs list 235's lame tread . . . So recap's or snow tires . . . Mike

:mad: that sucks :fs1: Mike

I don't know, but I think shipping the truck that fare would be awfully uncost effective. Mike
