    do any of the 5 ton have air shift

    The transmission is standard shifting, but there are air valves on the first/reverse shift rail that direct air to the cylinder on the transfer that selects forward or reverse sprag. The air system modification is to cut-off the air to the selector valves which puts the front drive in neutral...

    do any of the 5 ton have air shift

    Guys, The 800's and the M39 series have air shift sprag selection. No air shift for front axle drive UNLESS the air system modification has be done that allows neutral or front drive. The same only different from the 2-1/2 air shift.

    piston photos - cracks, chips, etc

    But doesn't the Continental manual refer to the -1 engine? The -1A engine was (is?) produced with single hole nozzles as late as 1990. The C and D engines I think had the cracking issues due to excess fuel impingement on the top of the piston. Look at this piston, does it look like it has a...
