Also, check your engine tag for date of manufacture. I got curious and found out my engine is 30 years newer than I thought it was. Hope things with yours are going well
I looked into it shortly after getting the truck 🤣
That sounds beautiful! Thanks for sharing, not a whole lot of difference between the two, unless mines an LDS with a late model LDT tag on it 😯...... I'll find out when its my turn to refresh 😬.
Also is there a substitute anyone has used with success? When the ones I ordered get here I'm going to take them to a hardware store and see what they come up with, hoping someone beat me to it. If not I'll post what they say here
I did and it appears to be so! It's an English 3035, can't find a year or anything and it's just a 3 line data tag but still, it's been swapped. T case looks original but is way too clean and the paints too nice, so I'm looking into that today. As for the dyno, I looked into it, but for what...
I think its actually 164, either way guessing the original puked and in went this one. It's strange, this turbo whistles pretty loud, which is why I thought it was the C originally, but I looked at it today while I was under the truck and there it was, stamped on the bottom of the unit...
Soooo this whole time I thought I had a Hercules with a c turbo....... Wrong! It's a D turbo, and the engine tag says mfd in 2 of 92!! The more you know.....
I especially love the advertised HP of 4, seems accurate 😆. Onward and upward!!!
Read the tm on how to replace it, question I have is since the pedal has been minutely engaged since she's been parked, are there any issues I should look for? I bled the air system completely before parking, and it's only been a week or so she's been sitting. TIA
Wait til she sings to you while you're grabbing 3rd.... Attached is an understatement 😍. Glad it fired, don't be afraid to sink money into it. High HP is cool, burning whatever hydrocarbon you can find as fuel is cooler.
I assure you I had nothing to do with it, my screen name and truck are puuuuure coincidence..... Love the jeep, looks like a blast. Cummins powered I imagine it'd be like a rocket, if the frame didn't DNA helix at launch.
