Hahaha. Same exact truck with a short bed. No 5th wheel though. Just a goose neck hitch.

Mines a 6 speed with free spin hubs and a straight pipe. No other mods. Yours?

[richief]

Got mine with man transfer case and man hubs, the only mods are 4" turbo back exh., big truck airfilter, got it from Kenworth cheap, but they call it Napa 6637 filter mod., and large case alternator from 2005 f550 (140A), Chevron Delo coolant, Bilsteins, bigger ujoints on front axles when I redid f.e. the rest I just use quality direct replacement parts on wear parts. Great trucks, hope to keep mine going another 15 yrs. LOL

Need to adjust another .003 to barrel shoulder to line up .

[Jff24Gordn]

I had no idea that there were this many people here with inferior trucks.






Cranky, what were you doing to the M1?

[guncrank1]

Parted barrel shoulder to .698, tightened action/barrel and TDC use about 1 degree off.
Used breach washer to adjust to .694 which is minumum for the shank length.

More checking reciver and bolt diminsions and recalculating- .003 washer will get a .697 ,including the standard .002 crush.

I can't knock the Cummins motor. Just not a fan of the trucks that fall apart around them.

This was chuckle-worthy.

Cranky, do you have an M1 rear sight assembly you'd part with?

[guncrank1]

Wow a discussion on trucks motors and rifles

Sorry MC no rear sights

Rebarreling M1 Garand to .30-06

Best dual purpose thread ever.

Rebarreling M1 Garand to .30-06

That's a game changer that's never been done before.

[Toecutter1978]

I laughed at the video. I thought it was funny.

If it doesn't have lockers, it's still a 4x2

Client bought thus rifle at a gun show.
It was rebarreled from 06 to .308, he bought it to me with firing issues.
I checked headspace and bolt would close on nogo.
Owner decieded to go back to original and correct headspace issue as well.

[guncrank1]

Barrel is installed and finish reamer will be used to cut chamber to depth



Sights line up so breaching washer to a.697 barrel shank is correct for this reciever and barrel.

[Mexican Kerry]

Now I want a Garand.

LOL I usually say "it's like buying a gold nugget wrapped in a turd"
gota like the 5.9 though

[richief]

good stuff guncrank, barrel line up looks like perfection.
The chamber reaming gives me pause, never did it but I know ya don't get many chances to get it right. lol
