Yep, done. All is well here. Hope you doing well !!

Added 2 more springs on each side up front. Added a 3 inch lift to clear the motor.

Will do. I realize that some do not care for the Perkins engine swap. All I can say is..My truck, my way. !!

It's a 7.4 liter used in a Combine. Turbo boost and a 4 speed auto w/od. It smokes the tires and runs like a wild ape. No complaints except it takes 10 minutes to lean out. Very smoky and stinky for that 1st 10 minutes.

The Perkins is a 454 Cubic Inch straight Six.

I will have to check. Yes, it's a straight massive six. Engine weighs over 1500 lbs.

Not sure on the liter size. It was a combine engine. It is massive. it is hooked up to a Later model Automatic with o/d. Both engine, Transmission and transfer case have been rebuilt. (not cheap) We are at 35K spent right now. Getting a adapter kit for the transmission was the worst part about it.

Good Bye 6.2. Hello Perkins Diesel.

Almost Done with the Perkins Diesel swap and fine tuning.

Testing pictures

A civilian puller will work too. just protect the middle shaft/threads. Don't forget the PB Blaster. BTW no such thing as a '66 A2.

Tie rods, upper and lower RIGHT SIDE control arms.

A conversion from A1 to an A2 would never work imo. If you using a A2 wiring on a older model, you are better off going to a 60 amp alt. Problem solved and you can lose the bread box.

I am with Hambone here. What fluid are you referring too ? There is oil in the coil, but not some toxic radioactive nuclear waste to worry about. Hmmm How do A2 coils cool then ? That vent line is worthless (my 2 cents)

Never heard of this ? How do A2 mutt's coils "cool down". I am still learning, so excuse my ignorance. Cheers

Installing a Mechanical pump has nothing to do with your coil. Hmmm

Mine are canvas, I prefer vinyl. Crazy right ??? My set is on e-bay, but I will sell to a member here a lot cheaper. Trade is preferred. Pm if interested. Thanks, Mike ***WTB an A2 Steering wheel.

Awesome.

I have 4-5 of them laying around in my garage. I would trade all of them for a new one.

That is a Very Nice A2. Not sure when, but in the early 80's the Marines went to flat black on Hood Stencils/body numbers.
