I don't mind Denny's....for the most part. Your bad luck was probably due to poor kitchen staff at one of the restaurants.
How old are your tires? If they are older then 7-10 years . T.
3 to 4 years old. The r250 is not for use under 50* f. Too bad ****** nature didn't care. Add rain to the mix, and you get what I had, otherwise I'd be still sitting in a ditch right about now. Silly me, eh ?

Finished up filling all the existing cab light mounting holes. Ready for the 3rd gen lights to go on.
Back to some engine work. I painted the timing cover which I think is the last of the engine parts.
Been a long time since I've seen the engine sitting in the frame. But had to take it right back out after seeing the lack of clearance for the coolant bypass.
So I tried my best at body work with an 8lbs. sledgehammer. LOL Thankfully, nobody will see much of this.
So I had to change things up a bit. Earlier today, I picked up the stainless hose I ordered.
I ground off some of the shoulder on the thermostat housing neck.
Made a new length of tubing with a slight 'S' bend in it.
Used a 1/4" x 1/2" stainless nipple and put the PRV at the thermostat housing.
I'm diggin' it!!
Luckily, a solid 3/8" of clearance at least for the fan blades.
Installed an Isspro tachometer today and finally fixed the air leaks in the window channels. Those air leaks will make you lose your mind and madder then a Keebler elf being demoted to fudge packer . Been listening to wisp, whistle, wisp, woosh, wisp for years...glad the horror is over. So nice to hear the highs, lows, and mid ranges on the radio and carry a conversation WITHOUT HAVING TO TALK LIKE YOUR IN THE MIDDLE OF A CATEGORY 5 HURRICANE.
Used the 92 W250 to haul off what was left of the '93 D250. Bye bye rusted pile, hello $150.
OH MY!!! HERESEY!!! So sad, poor 1st gen . I could of used those mirrors, mine are starting to give in to wind resistance...and that like gold, trim molding pieces...Could of warned us first, "Image may be disturbing to some viewers!"

OR...I could set the giant brush pile down in the hollow on fire, throw in a few tires so you'll see it, and we could drink your beer and watch 'er burn!
