Welcome!

Thank you! Man that is a neat tool!

Interesting. How do you service it? Attach a hose to it?

Where do you get R152a?

Looks nice!

Cool! Sounds great!

Lighting in the pictures makes the passenger door panel look tan. Nice rig, not sure about the red. My ex brother in law had a 63 split window. Pretty thrashed when he bought it. Man it was nice when he was done.

I don’t remember seeing sliding windows either, not sure I knew they existed.

My thinking is, if you have two spares you’ll never need one. If you have one spare you’ll need three!

This is interesting. Seems the one way to tell if you like them is to buy them and drive them. I think the KO2’s are quiet. I have Coopers (I think Discoverers), on my Xterra and the GMC. I hear them a little in the Xterra, but a lot in my GMC. To the point I was worried about the front bearings. I had BFG Terrain Trail or something like that on the Xterra. Couldn’t get KO2’s in that size, and there’s not room without modification for bigger tires. I opted for the Coopers this go around. The BFG’s wore well but I think that contributed to them not doing as well in ice and snow. The Coopers have done well in ice and snow, but I’ll probably try something else next time.

Yes the tops of the fenders are toasted! Could be years of high desert sun.

Nice seat, great find!

Welcome!

My first thought is your condenser is dirty or clogged up with debris and with added air flow, it gets enough flow to get it to cool better.

I agree, seems they are getting hard to find. At least I haven’t seen one for sale for a long time.

I have the BFG All Terrain KO/2 on my Suburban and my Bronco. And I will put them on my GMC when the time comes. I like them, not noisy to me, and the big plus for me is how they handle on ice and snow. They wear good, last IIRC, 65k to 75k.

Looks nice!

A 1985 Ford F250HD 4x4, and it’s comfortable. You got it going on right there! That’s awesome! A gentleman’s pickup!

Welcome!

Hooked to ported vacuum or straight vacuum is an on going argument, er, discussion. Is the vacuum can adjustable? Could be at max vacuum.
