Wyoming B.S. Thread

Yeah a quick Google didn't show much.

That said if round up is what they normally recommend (like always ) than I'd be surprised if chaparral didn't nuke it.

 

Is it worth 500$

Has a 5 speed, front diff, complete doors and a clean title


Asking here because you guys know best

 

I mean I paid 500 for a similar truck but no drive train. And was a 5 lug. Plenty of parts there to offset the cost potentially too.

 

Trying to find out if there’s anything wrong with the cab.

And then find out where I can get time to swap everything over...


Clean southern Utah frame though

 

cab swap isn't super fun. But not bad.

 

My problem is time and space, but this is probably the best option of saving the 99 so far.

 

The transmission and tcase is likely worth $500. You should easily be able to make that up in what you have leftover and then some.

 

+the axle if it’s locked

I’m trying to make it happen but it’s a long shot.

 

I consolidate after I get a few of similar weight. Right now I have a 4qt container filled with misc 5w and 10w 30 left over from oil changes. Made the shelf smaller. And as a bonus I don't have to buy the extra quart for a while now haha

 

Meh, needs new core support


Frame kinda looks bent

 

Have you looked into safe t caps to fix your current frame?

 

Yea kinda, but the frames not the only thing bad on it

 

Anybody run a synthetic 5/30 in their truck? Some basic testing to find the best. This is the final video of his bracket of oils. He tests alot of different things, interesting channel

I like that guy. Does some cool stuff

I run 5/30 or 10/30.

Mobile 1 though haha

 

My 288k mile engine looks nearly new under the valve covers, and I use whatever oil I feel like buying that day. Mostly conventional.


Interesting tests, but doesn't necessarily matter for real-world applications.

 

Walmart or Amazon dino oil for me, whichever is cheaper. It gets changed at 4200mi no matter what so it doesn't matter.

 

Syn vs conventional question I'm curious about is what is best when temps get up there. Like running the interstate in hot weather for long periods at higher coolant temps. Like 205-210. Can conventional handle that fine if changed every 3k miles?

 

Is that in St. George?

 

Basically yea, want a link?

 

Nah, just curious. It looked familiar.
