don't worry - we all know you are a mod. thanks for keeping the thread correct and adding value.

well, i am interested in what the differences are. my question was not directed to you. and if you never intended to answer the 'what is different' question, why did you feel like you needed to answer it anyway?

thanks - that helps.

i'd just like to point out that the above procedure is dangerous as crap. alternative: with the transfer and transmission in neutral and with the engine off, have someone push the clutch in and then you can see if you can turn the shaft by hand.

alright, so tell me if this is what we are saying: the only difference between the LDS and LDT motors are - injectors injection pump settings pistons (only for ring count purposes) otherwise, essentially everything else that may make a difference is the same - turbo (swappable and...

i don't own one, but i thought the 900's went to hydraulic. i was pretty sure it's almost a given assumption based on transmission type: auto trans = hydraulic PTO. ??

my thoughts: it will take much more 'effort' with regard to winch pulling power to lift the rear axle than it will the center axle, especially if there is a trailer tongue load on the rear. however, lifting the center axle for tighter maneuvering may negate any effects. the reason is that, as...

my thoughts and experience... thoughts: what i have read on here before about disconnecting one of the rear, i agree with (in theory): disconnect the intermediate axle and let the rear do the pushing when in 2wd. the reason i believe this is the better route is because of the suspension...

if it's an industrial block like you said, i wouldn't hesitate to drop that in place. that means it also has an SAE bolt pattern, yes? well for lowest cost, you could bolt it up to the deuce spicer (with adapter to get it to SAE#3?). i wouldn't - the torque from that gas motor will toast the...

don't forget to add $1k+ to add air-assist to an A2 for a more apples-apples comparo. i'd also be $2.00 that you'd spend more going through multiple multifuel motors than the rebuild or replacement cost of the one Cat. the last thing that i'd challenge is the multifuel ability - many folks...

first off, welcome to SS - this is a good site with great info. finding it can be tough sometimes, though. become friendly with the search function at the top menu bar (between 'New Posts' and 'Quick links'). i almost always use the advanced search, and even them, the dang thing is so finicky...

i think i've seen some discussion on there (TDG) about the buttons. i'll bet you 50 pesos that Tony (ynot on TDG) will have the answers for you.

wow, tincan - how tall (or not) is that girl in the pic...? ;-)

i actually re-used the deuce OE throttle linkage. i ended up cutting about 8" or so off of it, and i simply re-threaded it and put the OE adjustment linkage back on. the fitment is a bit tight; i loosened the joint at the pedal end to re-align the bend in the linkage. it now just passes...

that's certainly 'budget'. nothing wrong with them and the crafstmanship looks good. i semi-agree with the capacity - i think that they would indeed stop an un-laden deuce (3 axle) or bobbed (2 axle). but loaded or towing might be too much. this is speculation, though. the major difference...

good point, i thought about that but didn't mention it. i agree that the TST kit will likely not be of value since the AFC spring is likely different than on the 5.9 pumps. so there is no fuel plate at all? to stay on topic - i still vote 'no' to the 8.3 swap unless you are keeping the...

really? how is max rack travel limited? is the 'fuel rod' not the same as the 'arm' on the 5.9's? based on those pictures you posted, i'd say they look the same except for the AFC configuration - looks like the rear-mounted AFC would function the same; boost manipulated diaphram that uses a...

oohh, good call on the shackles - i'd like several if there are any left. the front ones specifically, but want rears also.

unless that customer is me, then :ditto:

winch?
