Re: Overdrive light

It's not on right now so I can't double check. I think it was blinking but now I'm not so sure. When this first happened before having the fluid refilled, I confirmed the OD function switching on/off...

Re: Overdrive light

I didn't notice any drivability issues, nor did I notice that it switched in/out of overdrive when the light came on, but I was going slow when it came on so I may not have noticed.

Re: PH bed - talk to me about 1-piece vs. sections, please

I have a walk through setup with two piece sections.

I find the padding of the PH bed to be a little to stiff, so we keep bedding, pillows, and additional padding up there when we're camped and...

Re: Transfer case refill bolt

Took the van from SF to death valley and back without any noticeable leak in the transfer case gauging from the sighting tube, which is great.

However, I noticed that the box next to the transfer...

Re: Transfer case refill bolt

Thanks for all the help!

Turns out the previous owner had filled it all the way to the top (3.5 quarts), which is why I couldn't see anything through the sight tube. Hopefully that's why there was...

Re: Transfer case refill bolt

Hmm. I'm not able to unscrew the blue nut without also turning the entire elbow. Maybe I'll have to take it to the mechanic and hopefully he has better luck.

Also, I just noticed that I bought a...

Transfer case refill bolt

It looks like I have an atlas ii transfer case leak. The plastic see through tube looks the same above and below the zip tie so I believe it basically is out of oil.

My first priority is to change...

Re: Fresh water tank connections

Awesome. I was able to unscrew the outer screw with a vice grip while holding on to the inner one by hand. It was really quite stuck... Thanks a lot!

Why bumpers and fender flares?

Many (most?) seem to add the big, beefy, and heavy bumpers to their SMBs, and I don't understand why. Ok, if you are going to install a winch in the front you get some utility if you get stuck rock...

Everyone has heard how the 7.3 diesel can last 500k miles or so. But, how long do the gas E350s last in comparison? What should you expect? 150k-200k before all the replacement costs starts getting...
