Thanks all!

1991 Toyota Land Cruiser -- any reason to not use Dexron III ATF in the power steering?

It's old enough that anything could have happened over the past 29 years but I think the front and rear diff are probably stock, I will check next time it's on the lift. Likely yes, open front and rear, this one has the electric (3 relays) locking center diff. 4 speed automatic transmission...

Owner had rear tires worn down, front tires new, we're seeing 8 inches in 10 rotations LR and 6 inches in 10 rotations RR difference from front tires. Not good, seems to have done some driveline damage. Put two new tires on the back same brand and size as new fronts, seems to be a lot better...

Got it and thanks much. I will look into this further and see what I can figure out.

You're right -- it is a TFX shock with the hydraulic preload adjuster option. Thank you for the help! Any thoughts or experience in using this feature?

Any idea what brand this shock is? It has the blue 40-click rebound damping adjustment on the bottom like TFX but I don't think TFX makes anything with the knob on the top.

Anybody know anything about Trail Guide All Terrain tires?

Quote With your parameters, I'd probably say an Odyssey, made by Enersys. That's three for Odyssey, that's where I will start and thank you.

Quote IMO Optimas are overpriced for what they are, and really unnecessary for the majority of applications. Good to know. Thanks.

Pelican, Rand, thank you for the response. Know anything about how they compare to the Optima?

If money were not a primary consideration, what is the best battery for reliable cold-cranking performance and reserve capacity?

Thank you for the follow-up. I think those Motoz Adventure GPS will be the next tires. As a matter of convenience and expediency we replaced the Pirellis and Michelins (90/10) with the Shinko 705 and while the improvement off-road was certainly significant, I would rate the Shinkos as very good...

If you had to choose a carbine in 7.62 x 39 and the primary criteria were reliability and durability under sever use conditions, what would your top three choices be and why?

It's a small Case tractor, don't know what brand engine. Owner's manual refers to a Case product or the ASTM3306 spec. There is a sticker saying it's an extended life coolant installed. Are all organic based coolants that are ELC nitrated? Just trying to figure out what is in there and what...

Can OAT and NOAT coolants be mixed if the both meet ASTM S3306?

Perhaps more to the point, I need to replace a stock on a shotgun, no matter what, I am buying a stock anyhow. I'm thinking that this is as good a time as any to upgrade, at least a little. Recoil reduction is a useful feature. I might also be inclined toward a sliding stock for more compact...

Anybody got any experience with these? https://www.kicklitestocks.com/shotgun.html If so, what did you think?
