If it's a jump start, it should be ok for short duration whatever short means (and it may not). If it's for a while, it will read "burnt up." I don't know about the double theory...... This is a "bri

It's also a function of the rear axle ratio. Check out www.chevytrucks.org and meander your way through the tech section. The formula is there...... we have all talked about tire sizes in the past do

Careful, the king pin bushings on a '50 1/2-ton, if original, will be floating, and will therefore install by finger (not requiring a bushing diver). Its not that hard, but a good bushing driver and
