I'm in!

In!

Greetings from Mississippi! A while back I brought an M1009 home, shows 32K miles. It runs perfect save for the metering valve sticking in the injection pump prolly from sitting up. As I'm sure everybody here knows when the throttle is let off abruptly the engine can stall & die. Anybody here...

I would add that in a perfect world the drag link should sit level at rest to keep bump steer to a minimum. The drag link type of steering linkage will always have SOME bump steer engineered into it though, we do the best we can. Keep them U-Bolts TIGHT!!! 6 degrees or so Positive Castor will...

OK, I'm sure you mean for me to connect the second charged batt in parallel to the dead Hawker, correct? I will try this & report back in a few days. One my Hawkers had a LITTLE detectable voltage in it but the other not so much. Thanks evebody for your help!

Thanks! Lowest setting on my shop charger is 2 amps. That too much or should I got find a real trickle?

Greetings from Mississippi! I was given two unused Hawker batteries from an estate. But build date is 05/07 & are dead. I remember when I was in Afghanistan being told about the Hawkers & in TM Monthly reading they charge funny & need special equipment to do it, but we never saw any. Has...

How many axles does the bus have? Does the bus have disc brakes on the front or both axles? What boosts the master cyl? Prolly a hydro unit I bet, that would be good! However if the bus only had two axles I'm sure the bus master cyl won't run six wheel cyls. A wheel cyl takes a LOT more volume...

For everbody's info here the M1010 Ambulance has everthing needed to mount a compressor. It mounts to the left side of the engine & both alternators mount on the right. It mounts the big Frigidaire A6 but A Sanden can mount with a common adapter kit. I just removed all the mounts, compressor...

Yes you can! They come in two different sizes, N7815 & P78 16. The owner of Hesselbein Tire in Jackson Mississippi ‪(601-974-5959‬) has them made for him. He started in India but it was beyond their capability to produce a ROUND tire so now they are made in China. His grandson is the one who...

Yes. There is a spacer between the rear pinion brgs called a "Crush Sleeve" & as the pinion nut is tightened the sleeve "Crushes" down until no play is left between the brgs & you stop at a certain preload measured with a beam type torque wrench. Caution! Over tightening the pinion nut can...

By looking at the ratio chart you posted it confirms my suspicions... What you gain on top for O/D you lose on the bottom in 1st! Thanks! This is a lot like some Fuller transmissions. A 15 speed has the O/D in front & looses on Low whereas a 13 speed has the O/D in the rear & has good reduction...

Thanks. I am not a fan of the 540 series of Allisons. Back when these were installed in the S series IH & the F series Ford Trucks they would not stay behind a 210 HP 3208 Cat engine. After building a good number of these it struck me that these were just 4 speed Turbo 400s! If Taylor & Jeans...

Greetings from Mississippi! Can anyone tell me if the non O/D transmission (Spicer 6352?) is a direct exchange for the Spicer 3053A? I think that's what my A2 has in it. I do not like my 1st gear ratio & do not need an overdrive. When I get my crane removed I want to drag my backhoe around & the...

Try removing the rear driveshaft. Tape a zip loc bag over the transfer case rear output shaft housing where you just removed the driveshaft yoke. Put the transfer case in 2WD High & drive the truck. If the noise is gone then the rear diff is suspect. If it is the same then the problem prolly is...

gyro flo hey guys- funny reading this as one of my buds wants to sell me his gyro flo. it has had new vanes & oil seperator rebuilt but has been sitting for a few years now. it still cranks & runs good but needs the unloader rebuilt. where do yall get parts for these? thanks andy

when changing trans some considerations are in order, size limitations, syncro or non syncro, clutch type, ratio sets, rpm range. and old school trans would be a rt or rto 610 fuller. it has a ratio set for gas burner rpms, or about 3000 rpm. these were behind a lot of 3000 rpm mid range...
