I have a Allison ht 740 behind a Detroit 8v92 in a mk48 that I an having problems with. When I put the truck in forwards the converter locks and stalls the truck. When put in reverse the converter is unlocked and operates normally. I have bypassed the external lock up selinoid and checked to...
Does anyone know where to buy the little rubber plugs for the air brake canisters on a 900 series and LVS? These are the plugs that cover the area you go into to cage the brakes.
Thank you

Unless Commufornia gets their way. They just sent a bill to the governor to sign that makes it illegal to carry riffles in the open. I don' know what effect that will have on reenactments and services if they can not use riffles with blanks any more. Of coarse in the same bill they want to give...
I am going to have to look into that. Previous owner thought it was original but it's overall size is bigger than my 352. There was a lot of variances and aftermarket boosters that got put in later.

No I have been my own worst enemy lately. Since the last post I have added 4 more tucks to the collection. Every time a new truck shows up the others get put on the back burner. Although I am about to leave here and head to AAA to due a mass registering of trucks and one of those is the DUKW.

I can't give you an exact weight but I do know they are a fair amount heavier. My back is still out from two weeks ago trying to help balance my 24 bolt rims for the H1. The other thing is the tire is a fair amount heavier due to the higher load rating as well. If I had to guess I would say the...
