Not quite 2 years ago I moved from Oregon to North Carolina. Almost exactly 3,000 miles. I still own THREE diesel pickup trucks that are parked in a storage lot in Oregon. Long story short, they cannot be driven to NC under their own power. It is also not possible for me to sell them for what...

I have a 1998 Cherokee. It did not come with the tow package but I am installing a hitch. I won't tow more than about 2,000lbs with it. The manual says for towing you need a transmission cooler, which I'm installing also, and 85w140 gear oil in the rear. I've got some pretty fresh synthetic 90w...

I'm installing a remote oil filter on my truck. I'm also going to install a bypass filter and send away regular oil samples to determine when I actually need to change my oil, not just some nice round number that makes me feel good. I'm wondering if it would be possible to install an oil...

I recently got a used 50-something gallon fuel transfer tank I'm going to use for diesel. It's got a little bit of rust on the inside. Nothing major, doesn't look like it's flaking off or clogging anything, just some surface rust. I'm wondering how big of deal this is? The tank has a...
