Just a test fit and there's definitely enough room for a floor mounted clutch pedal

Anyone need anything moved? I'm heading out from salt lake city to Atlanta, GA tomorrow afternoon, the 28th.

Went down to Albany the other day to pick up some tires. I'm running 2004 tires so it's about time to swap them out. Upon loading 9,000 pounds of tires the 1084 it blew out it's exhaust manifold/turbo gasket and it felt like I lost 100 hp. It crawled back home with barely any power and...

Reversed polarity? With 8 not working it makes me think it's power supply related

I think Wes's suggestion with the double overdrive transmission is the way to do it, along with a hemtt transfer case. If I do that I wouldn't even need 3.07s to cruise at 65

No It's Monroe Ga, I guess there's a lot of Monroes out there so it causes some confusion lol

Yeah, might not be the best way to do it. Looks like with my 13 speed I have with a T1138 I'd get a ratio of .63 combined which would be good for me. But at 2400 engine rpm the driveshafts will be turning 3779 rpm which is a little fast

It seems like NC is always more expensive

Took another look at the Detroit today and it's way taller and wider than a 3116. (35 inches wide) But momma didn't raise a quitter. I think it'll fit if I cut out where the 3rd passenger sits and build it up. I'll get the Detroit pulled out this winter because the truck it's in needs to go to...

Man, the last thing I need is another truck lol. The idea is that I use what I have on have and not spend loads of money. I already have the engine and transmission Is this the same Bryce that sells loads of 3.07s?

That's an option, but I'd like to get a manual in there if I can. It'd be a blast to ride around in. I'd just need a linkage that reaches all the way back to the trans

That's what I thought too. Say the Detroit fits, how hard would it be on everything downstream?

I've thought about this and I may have to end up getting 3.07's in it to make up for that loss in gearing. I'll have to look at what's already in the ford to see if I can use it. I know you put a 350 big cam in one of your trucks, and there's another L9000 here with a big cam next to the truck...

I've been toying with this idea for a while now and been trying to do research if anyone has attempted an engine swap in a FMTV of any kind. I know lot's people swap out HMMVW engines all the time but found nothing on FMTV's. What: Detroit Diesel 8v71 318HP with manual transmission replacing...

Thanks! I'm sure by now most are used to all the crazy stuff I bring home, but apparently some people are making complaints to the code enforcement, but he says that I'm not breaking any rules so don't worry about it. Not sure exactly what I want from it, I want to get the engines running so...

I've painted tent fabric which is vinyl coated polyester several times with behr paint. It works great

Why can't you put that in your rig? Too big?

It It's in an old ford L9000. I've often wondered if it would fit in my mtv if the motor ever blew up, but that might be a tight fit. there's also an 8v71 Detroit in the truck next to it and that would be wicked to swap out

I have a 350 big cam in a truck. It sat for 20 years but it was running when it was parked

I reupholstered some HMMWV seats the other day. My first time doing it, how did it turn out? I used heavy duty vinyl tent fabric so they should last a long time
