Yes sir, I looked for a good side by side video before I bought the 40 and couldn’t find it. The U35 is truly a great machine though too.

Up is down & down is up because Chrysler had to do that because it was not GM.

These don't look like they'll work on anything other than darn near level land. Any undulations would not work with the single big roller that controls cut height.

They work well on uneven ground, but if there are a lot of steep sharp bumps you will end up scalping the ground.

Thanks for the video. Just finished installing my eBay “pre-loved” fold flat floor using your instructuons. To me, it’s one of the best functional mods I’ve done to my 1500 Tradesman yet. Had the fold flat in my previous 3500 and sure missed it.

what brand & model of grapple with independent thumbs is the one that you show on the Kioti and where did you buy it? R U satisfied or any shortcomings?

@billygrossjr.5585 22 күн бұрын

It is an Everything Attachments 60" HD Grapple. It has been very good and seems to be well built. My only complaint is I wish they had a flat spot or kickstand on the back of it so the grapple would stand up by itself in storage without having to leave it in the opened position.

Coming from a guy who has installed a few of these myself on identical trucks... space is so limited! I personally run the air lines in an asphalt wire loom. Adds just a little protection. Well done though!

@billygrossjr.5585 Ай бұрын

Good idea 👍. I have a question for you; is it okay to adjust the tension of the plunger “piston” while both ends are attached? Or should I disconnect the end of it and thread in the end and re-attach it? Just don’t want to damage the internals.

@gmanjax Ай бұрын

It won't hurt it to leave it attached and adjust. I always pull the pin out of the rod end then I can just spin the clevis on the rod to fine tune.

I have a couple of these vans (2018- 2019 ). I have about 150,000 on each. They have been vary reliable. I would definitely buy another. I wish they would come out with a hybrid or all wheel drive option. Coming from a chevy van, these ride like a bus. I wish the seat would go back a little more. The head lights are the worst. Like having a candle out there. Vans are used for service. I go threw a set of tires every year. Why do these van not have a upper brake light.

@billygrossjr.5585 Ай бұрын

the reason the gearshift is backwards for you, is because the van is designed for the European market by the PSA group (Peugeot - Citroen & Fiat) Ram just put a bigger engine in them and half the miles per gallon on fuel, something that only does 17mpg would never sell in volume in Europe, i drive a Ford Transit and get 37mpg (diesel engine) it was a good review of your van, i enjoyed watching it, thank you for posting

@billygrossjr.5585 2 ай бұрын

That’s impressive mileage! I was honestly content with the MPG of the Promaster relative to what I was used to with a truck and trailer.

@wilf.x 2 ай бұрын

@@billygrossjr.5585 a gallon of diesel here in the UK is just under $9.00 (in your money) and around 70% of that is tax, so i guess that’s why our manufacturers are using smaller and less powerful engines for the European market.

@@billygrossjr.5585 They tried to get the brakes working, but failed. I’m still trying to narrow down why I get the trailer brake disconnected message.

So the trailer repair shop who fixed it said it was the factory connections by the axles-visually they looked like they had a good bite but they didn’t actually get the copper wire. They were the cheap shark bite style connectors. I would start there 👍

Very good points here. Especially point 1 and 2. Regarding the tunnel, yes it is weaker than on Axys, but I would choose the tunnel on my Matryx any day over the Axys one. It's so much more playful and "not in the way" than the Axys one. Put a proper rear bumper on it, and its plenty strong. The Axys tunnel was outdated and needed to be renewed. Basically the same tunnel design from 2008-2022.
