After 30+ years of working the heavy truck and high performance business I've never seen a probe fail. Go pre-turbo and get some accurate readings. Your engine will thank you. =)

Looks like HMMWV straps could be a "reasonably" bolt-on option too.

Funny you mention that. My old Jeep Wrangler uses limiting straps. I was looking at them last night. I really want to keep the truck as original as possible but if push comes to shove, straps it is.

Thanks cattlerepairman. I'll look this morning and try to determine if it's an item that can be replaced. I have a feeling that I'm going to be stuck trying to fabricate something. Richard

I'll get out the mirrors and inspection camera for a closer look tomorrow. I don't see that listed as a separate part in the -24P and I see no evidence of external spot welds or rivets.

Here's a better photo of another truck. The tab that the arrow points to is sheared off cleanly on my drivers door. Years of being thrown open and bounced off of the stop must have taken it's toll.

I have all of the TM's. The rod and rubber stop isn't the issue. I have spares and even found the original down inside of the floor vent. If you compare the first and second photo you can see that the small bracket that protrudes from inside of the door is broken off clean. There is no longer a...

After staring at my Deuce sitting in the shop for far too long I'm back at it and starting to go over her from end to end. Out of all of the usual things I expected to find I've only run across two actual issues. Slow release of the brakes (although they work perfectly) and what is shown in the...

Is your EGT probe pre or post turbo? Those sound like post turbo numbers.

After further investigation my noise did end up being the check valve between the tanks. Richard

Same here. 14 days and multiple unanswered emails. The day that I was going to call my CC company and dispute the charge I received a tracking number. Still no parts. First and last for me too.

Kicking this one back up for input. Does anyone have any experience with the Deestone D501 NDT's? Do they run true to size? I'm just not finding anything on them other than a few old post on Jeep size tires on a couple of the Australian boards.

Was this on an HMMWV or another model of truck?

I've been trying to read more about this. Has the issue been mostly with the Humvee owners and the data plate on the dash? I had no problem at all with my M35A2C but I had a title.

Thanks Floridianson. I'll dig in again and see if I can locate the test procedure.

Just got an email from SEMA that it didn't pass.

PM inbound.

That's the conclusion I came to late last night. Almost looks like someone may have tried to tie an intercooler into the system. Looks like it's a moot point as the seller is overpriced and doesn't want to start the engine for me.

Ran across an LDT 465-1D. Looking at the data plate it's the same contract number as my current engine. No info on the build date as I'm waiting for a clearer photo of the data plate. Unfortunately it doesn't appear to have stored very well. What struck me as odd was the intake elbow and turbo...

Thanks rustystud. So it sounds like I was on the right track with it being the check valve between the tanks. Nice to know that I'm not starting the season out chasing a ghost.
