    K&N Air filter setup

    Ok the filter I used was K&N 38-2006S. It has 6 inch inlet I used a 5 to 6 inch coupler then it has a 5 inch outlet which I ran 5 inch the whole way into the turbo. As far as air restriction goes I never hooked up the original gauge again. I know it had to be better because I had her turned up...

    K&N Air filter setup

    I will check around and see what I can come up with. That's the only picture I have left in my phone.

    K&N Air filter setup

    Yes because I added a 25 gallon hydraulic tank where the original filter was and plumbed it around the tank to retain the original air stack.

    The commercial k&n are a dry element. And that was my truck it was on. I sold the truck to another member here.

    Max Obtainable Hydraulic Pressure on 925A2 Hydraulic System?

    Yes that's the stock pump. That's the pressure my relief valve is set at. The only time I have ever hit that pressure is when the ram hits the end of its stroke. I have never had a problem dumping 8 ton and I can tell you it's not close to that pressure while raising the load because when you...

    Max Obtainable Hydraulic Pressure on 925A2 Hydraulic System?

    No I did not do a thread on it I posted in some threads on what I did but no dedicated thread. I can get you some info tonight after I get home from work. Basically I added electronic valves and made the system more usable by adding other lines and auxiliary hook ups.

    Max Obtainable Hydraulic Pressure on 925A2 Hydraulic System?

    Yes the pressure can be raised but the factory winch valve won't handle the pressure either will the winch. I am running 2750 on my dump hoist on the up side and 1500 on the retraction side. I have a short bed but I have dumped 8 ton no problem.

    Jackstands?

    I use the harbor frieght 12 ton ones and welded in solid base on the bottom so then don't sink.

    So who has bumped the power on a 6CTA cummins

    I only run mine to about 2700 max if towing or pulling a hill. Normally I just leave it in 1-5 and let it do its thing. The reason I usually go with 4k is because I know it will have full fueling to what ever rpm I run to whether it be 2000 or 2700 I know I will have full power on tap.

    May have to flush out the heater core also. They will get crud in them.

    So who has bumped the power on a 6CTA cummins

    I usually don't have to push it to hard so I just normally let it in 1-5 unless pulling grades. You can manually shift it if you want, the highest I ran RPMs so far was 2700. Top speed isn't what I was going for but it will move. I used all the springs supplied in the kit when I put it in. The...

    932a2 hood adjustment

    Like Gunzy said or it looks like someone hit it under the drivers side headlight and bent it all up.

    932 vs 925

    With no weight on the back of mine it hopped around a good bit. Could actually see air under the tires on bridge joints. Putting weight back there will help. As far a toy hauler it might shake it apart if it just a standard one for a pickup unless you get extra weight over the rear end to help...

    Best Option to haul tracked excavator behind M931A2?

    What have you done to your 5 ton this week?

    I picked up the scissor hoist used for $200. I had to modify it some just fab work. It works great no leaks.

    What have you done to your 5 ton this week?

    I got everything cheap and hydraulic hose shop made all my hoses up at cost. I have about $350 in valves and blocks another $175 in 3 dual port relief valves and about $300 in all my fittings and hoses. You would have less if you just wanted a winch and dump bed but I ran a third valve for a...
