    Hi-speed ring & pinion vs overdrive

    Very good question, I dont see why it wouldnt work and improve alot of things. Other than the fact that the "A" engine does not do well with "lugging" along at low RPMS, it is actually worse than revving it harder I have heard..... That is the only "downside" I can possibly think of...

    Miles per day touring

    EEK!!!! I agree, it depends on YOUR physical condition, and the type of roads, etc.... I would possibly find it very stressful on the Expressway with people flying up on you going 85+, and stopping on a dime for traffic in front of you in their new cars with 14" brembo brakes....... Know...

    You asked: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Doodlebug_tractor Ron, I imagine you are speaking of this one for sale on D-19 for a few months now. It is in great shape, but has that homemade C-cab looking deal and bed. Owner appears to be adicted to crack cocaine with an asking price of...

    Rear main "seal"

    Thanks for the leads fellas, looks like the pan is coming off next week, we shall see what is going on.... Looking at the gunk that once was oil that I drained out of it when I changed the oil, I would guess that the oil tube/galleys in the rear main are plugged... It barely drips when Just...
