    Allison shifting problem, 3rd gear.

    I have bad luck with automatic trannys. One of my trucks, M923, has just developed (in the last 100ish miles) a strange shifting problem. When shifting into 3rd, it will rev up like it's going to neutral then it will shift into 3rd. It doesn't seem to happen when the tranny is cold or if my...

    PT pump throttle shaft

    Hi all, I was going to adjust the shift rod on my M923 but ran into a minor issue, I think. The throttle shaft will spin 360 degrees.

    multifuel parts interchange

    Are the heads, block, crank and rods the same in the LD, LDT and LDS engines? I have a friend who is giving me an LD engine and I would like to rebuild it with LDS pistons as a backup for my LDS 465-1a. I know the pistons, injection pump and injectors are different, I just want to make sure...

    5 ton identification

    Hello, I'm looking at purchasing a 5 ton but the seller knows very little about it. He says it's a 1953 kaiser but is not sure. He thinks its a deuce! But it's a 5 ton for sure. It has the LDS 465-1a engine thats runs great and was rebuilt in 1969 based on the engine data plate. All I have...
