came here for this

It’s not very hard to hold back the depth of water from the tailgate. One person can do it and let it out slowly.

You have to flush the antifreeze from it, remove the thermostat (Cold water intake makes it think the engine isn’t warm yet = no flow through), and use a booster pump cheap marine bilge pump) to prime the system because the ordinary water pump can’t pull enough suction.

Yes. Any bilge pump from a boat is easy to wire up. Same goes for the strainer that most boats have for their water intake (to cool).

A simple sheet of landscaper’s pondliner can go across there and seal itself. Basically a thick garbage bag. Does not have to be complicated. Have built a truck hot tub. Can confirm.

Use jackstands under the frame. Not an issue. From experience.

It can be done! I did it with not a lot of mechanical skills and a leased Dodge Dakota! Go have fun!

Go to your local marina and get a bilge pump. Many will run off of the lighter in the cab. Wakeboard enthusiasts know that they make a lot of models that will more than handle the load. But yes your normal water pump can’t pull the suction.

I can confirm. I flushed the engine on a 4.0 liter Dodge Dakota to run mine through the engine. Took out the thermostat. Took HOURS of idling. Worth it to a college age guy.

I forgot about POLAR! Life was pretty good back then.

Do you have the old Save the Enzos one? #OG #Jalop4Life

I look at almost as many boats as I do cars. It’s a sickness.

Def not a Wally. Most likely a Van Dutch. Tried to sort of ape the Wally look, with a twist. Currently insolvent. Not trying to correct people, just trying to help.

Love Derek D, but remember in the early days they occasionally had a few GORGEOUS ladies? Like a cute brunette and a hot ginger?

So these guys, Icon4x4, and aren’t there like 2 other REALLY cool car companies working out of Chatsworth now? Do I need to relocate for better car-spotting opportunities?

Isn’t that the same guy he was pitted against in Ocean’s 12 and 13? The NightFox? And Why is Linus Caldwell going by the name Jason Bourne now?

Will definitely have more luck finding the owner of the boat than the SUV. Particular year, model, and color scheme in Minnesota will be known to the local Nautique dealer(s). Way fewer of that particular version than of “black GM SUV”.

Also bought 2 and LOVED them, for about a year. Now they’re garbage. BUT, I wrote to Amazon and they refunded me.

Pretend this is my old neighbor Neal.

Much love!
