You think there are any virgins left and thanks for the post. Yea I thought about a reworked Dana and as I said in the other post I was hoping Steve 6x6x6 would cut down the one side to match the rear off set as he is just down the street. Sad but true he said he is done building axles. Seems...

Call to bug them again and I was a day late and a dollar short. They just sold all the parts to make the switch for the 4.89 ratio. He said it might be 6 to 8 months before they make the order to make a run and to see if there is enough interest to order another run. Was wondering if anyone here...

Just a thought about air in the system for anybody to check. First would be the bleeder at the secondary filter when the alleged air is in question, When you have the problem before you try and start the engine again just turn on just the in tank and check for a good steady stream with no air in...

Thanks guys talked to Vintage this morning. I have decided with all the other projects I have going on I will remove the whole axle and drop it off to them. That way get er done right by someone that has ridden that horse before. Can you say road trip from Fl. to Iowa.

Yea I am here in body not mind so think your right. Good thing I am old, grumpy and can not think worth a crap even when I am here in mind.

I thought the ground was through the panel to the cab. Would not if the ground was through the sending unit would that not make the the gaged peg out and not read correct.

Had a couple of weak spots in the plywood in the front so I am replacing all the forward wood. Not bad getting it out and new cut to size. Just waiting on Amazon for the Torx head screws I like to use so come on Amazon. Then new vinyl and we are good to go.

To me if there was no problem before now it is starting then it would seem like it needs a new clutch. Has it been leaking oil out of the drain hole. Also been a long time since I worked on a Deuce but when I adjusted my clutch after replacement I took off the small four bolt bottom inspection...

Been awhile but I do not remember a ground wire to the panel. Thought it got its ground when we tighten the screws on the panel to the dash. Thought there was someone that said if gages start acting wonkey for no reason loosen all four screwy things and tighten them back down and or tighten up...

Here you can see the delivery valve with the little spring. If the pic came out well enough you can see the slot. Kind of reminds me of a needle and seat you see in a carburetor and float set up.

Yep the most common problem with air in the system seems to be the rubber hose on the in tank pump in the tank. It does not take much pressure just need to keep a little flow going through the head for it to start. Yes good to have the correct pressure to help performance but if the system is...

Ok myself here is where I might start. First have all three fuel filter or know that you have all three good filters. Then in running down a no start fuel problem it is easer if the in tank fuel pump is working. Myself I just open the bleeder screw between the secondary fuel filter and final...

I will give them them a call and thank you sir.

Ok I will be patient but 29 views and no response? Next question if you please. From the TM 3400 rpm is the governed engine speed if I read it correctly. The choice of gear ratio is what I would like to have help with. I would like to truck to be geared to at 3400 rpm then the speed would fall...

Just to add it is the plunger that moves up and down not the quill shaft. No big deal but the quill shaft is what rotates the plunger by way of the plunger drive gear. I believe the problem with trying to check plunger movement is so far no one has measured how far the movement is when the...

With a tail wind?

The truck is a parade queen and at this time I keep her clean on hard roads so I do not need the front axle engaged. I would love to do both front and rear axles with better ratios but for now I would like to do just the rear. I got hold of member Steve and asked if he would build me a rear but...

Myself I do not like to run older dated tires on the steering axle. On the 915A2 I bought new tires all round dated now at 2015 and the 1088 has newer all round and they are about ten years old even though that truck is a garage queen. Even my civilian trailers I get new after nine years.

JD maybe I do not see it or you did something different. On mine both banks of 24 are bonded together and both POS. 12 volt are bonded together.

Myself run flats were a good thing in a combat situation or you find yourself far from a good LZ. Running roads here in the US if I get a flat I am pulling over as soon as possible / good ground and change my tire. Would seem even with a run flat in the front it not going to be fun to drive very...
