    m813 water pump question

    When you install the new pump, use a LOT OF ANTI-SEIZE on the bolts as well as the SEALING GASKET, if you do not, the sealing gasket WILL gall when you adjust the belts which in turn will cause a leak and the ONLY way to fix the leak is to pull the pump and start over with a NEW sealing gasket.

    Gearhart Engineering 5 ton Lockout hubs

    Just so everybody knows, the 939 has the front axle air shift so these hubs WILL work as intended, installing these hubs on a 39 or 809 series 5t, they WILL NOT work as intended because these trucks have a sprag (over running clutch) transfer case that engages the front axle if the rears have...
