if you are addressing the OP/thread starter, realize the thread is 7 years old, and the last activity, until yesterday, was 7 years ago.

had to slap on the chains to collect the last of the sap last weekend.. season is done... time for clean-up.

good for the truck, and good for me, too. i always enjoy driving it, especially when hauling something.

maple season is a bit early for me this year, but that's our new weather. collected sap yesterday, and began boiling. should be drawing off syrup today. quick video of sap flow from one of the short lines, and pumping to the truck... sap flow & pumping

also, the canadian blocks were 25", not 23". so the length isn't going to be of much use in identifying the size.

i thought you were asking about the inner fender, not the fender itself. -

from what i recall, i installed mine from inside the hood, not from the wheel side. are you trying to install it from the wheel side? -
when i first rebuilt the 237, circa 2009, i didn't touch the original oil pump. prior to the rebuild, running pressure was around 40 psi, and idle was around 15 psi. i was fine with those numbers. when the 237 threw a rod circa 2017, i pulled the pump and installed it on the "new" 251, although i did clean it and run oil through it prior to installing. pressure on the 251 is about 42 psi running, and 20 psi at idle. the original pumps are pretty solid, and work well enough. seems like a big risk to run a new pump if the original pump (or whatever pump came with a given engine) still works. in neither case did i submerge the pump in oil prior to installing, and it worked just fine (and pressure was indicated immediately during starting, prior to running).

we cancelled our annual ice harvest day after rescheduling twice. open water at the edges (tough to drive onto the ice to load it), and not very thick for blocks - about 8 inches. last year, we had 18" blocks that weighed around 300 lbs each. from last year....

nice ride, robert! keep driving!

i have no idea how the 7.50s would be. my b1fa has 8.25x20s front and rear. never really thought it steered hard, though.
