    Power Steering Question.

    I am sitting here nursing a bad case of tennis elbow. We just returned from a pretty awesome two week trip to Southern Utah. At one point we had three days in a row which where twelve hours of driving in low range covering 30 miles or less each day. I was running very low psi for traction...

    Fuso FG 6 speed conversion?

    After living with my FG for some time, I must say the only real weakness of the truck is the gear ratios in the manual transmission. Some of the 2 wheel drive models have a six speed transmission. Has anyone investigated whether the six speed will mate to the 5 speed transfer case? Thank you...

    I am trying to calculate necessary fuel for a long remote trip. Looking back at my records I see that I have never added more than 23.75 gallons of fuel to my tank. Has anyone actually drained one of the stock tanks to determine exactly how much it holds? Thank you! Allan
