Thing is, you won't find a tag on a caterpillar engine that says that anymore, and on any of these trucks that are really in question. We know the 5 tons should come back, this has happened before, GL is just playing it safe right now. And that should be expected. If any of us were in charge of...

The LDS465-2 installed in the 8x8 five ton trucks did have an automatic transmission behind them. From what I understand it was an early Allison product and it worked in conjunction with a special injector pump that would refuel the engine as the trans shifted so it didn't break the trans or...

Good deal

Ok, was just wondering if there may have been a bare shoe or something you weren't aware of. Could have had a spring come loose and get between the shoe and drum somewhere too.

Dan, have you had the drums off recently? I can't remember if you have or not.

Sounds like he was having a bad day and looking for someone to share it with.

In the past couple of weeks i have installed my 11.00r20 NDTs on my truck, resealed a couple of hubs and replaced the seals, replaced the loaded mainshaft, bearings, and topcover of the transmission, installed a boost gauge, replaced my injectors, and turned my fuel up.

That was a really cool pic. I like that a lot.

Ok, well you could "accidentally" back over a couple of them and then offer to buy their turbos.

I have two out by the shop, one has the head mentioned above, the other I'm not sure but will get back to you on it.

Start browsing the lowlife tuner crowd forums?

It irritates me that most trees are going to live longer than me....

Have you figured out what kind o turbos you are after yet? A pair of c turbos would be cool until they got annoying. Imagine what that would sound like!

I saw roller lifters for the multifuel on one of the surplus sites the other day. I think it was eastern. edit: excuse me, they are roller tappets.
