Just go to napa tell you need a couple tin and a couple thick small pto gaskets they will know what you want. Just make sure after you install it the is some play, just engage pto and turn shaft back and forth, you should feel the gear hit the other. If its to tight you will know it when you...
My 6.5 has ran out of fuel and about 20 seconds of cranking it will light right off. But you can fill up the fuel filter and loosen the injector lines up at the injectors and crank the motor over until fuel comes out tighten the lines back up and start it. Never heard of removing the glow plugs...
My truck has a dash mount socket in it, It also had a work light that was in the truck that looks like pac man on the end of a flashlight with about a 10 ft cord on it. So what you need is out there somewhere. Where did you get your heater I like it
I've been kinda reading this thread and thinking I give you some advice that I charge most people for and you have called names and argued with about everyone that has replied to your thread. So to offer some more free advice is to loosen up and relax a little with folks most of what they say...
On farm equipment chevrons forward for driven wheels and backwards for non-driven. Look on the bright side you can backout of the mud better than you went in.
Its easier than you think to do. I have done a few semi's. first you have to had a level place to work, and some good tall jack stands. I cut the frame at a 45 degree angle on each side at the same place and get a new piece of frame which any steel supplier should have, same size as the old...
Stretch the frame add a carrier bearing and a section of drive shaft. I would do that before I would cut the bed. I think the frame stretch would be easier for myself
Someone clarify for me is it a Freightliner Or a Western star. Its a Western Star cab for sure but the hood looks like nothing else and it appears to have a small Freightliner badge on it. And yes I know Freightliner owns Western Star now. But what names on it?
I always thought a IH DT-466 would be a good multifuel replacement, There Cheap,SAE bell housing, The clutch would be easy, chances are your old clutch would work if not what is it like a 14" button a Big truck transmission supply shop should find you what you need to work. You can get 250 hp...
It takes a D8 with a PCU and one behind pushing to make it work right. Sure you could hook it to a smaller dozer if you had the controller to lift the bowel and make the apron work so you could unload it but you would just scratch with it not actually use it to its full potential. The price is...
I bet you thought I meant I was towing a 818, but no its a farm tractor. It retired in the field and needed a bit more work than I wanted to do out in the field so I brought it back to the shop. I had to chain the axles so it wouldn't articulate while in transit and didn't go very fast only...
Heads aren't the problem the headgaskets are the weak link, as mentioned about keep boost low and you will be fine. Most military 6.2 I've seen Had the later style heads and the short injectors if that is the case a stock 6.5 turbo, intake and crossover pipe would be better.
Not at all, I have had my share of modified vehicles. But your comparing apples to oranges. In all reality Automotive companies spend million and millions on R&D and a Joe Blow of the street is not going to engineer anything better. Granted a jeep built to suit ones needs is fine with me I have...
Yea these muffler shops have crazy prices. My buddy has the 50 series on his 454 3/4 chevy with pipes out the back and I thinks it quiet you can only hear the motor under hard acceleration. I think a factory y pipe from napa and a 50 series 1 in the center with 2 out and a couple factory...
I am gald you said it. I have always wanted to but never want to upset the heard. I don't think its smart too turn them up and put big tires in them and go fast. They are what there are and do a good job at it. i use mine for a farm truck it hauls fuel and tools and pumps up tires and pull stuck...
Strait down at the rear with a three bolt flange. I don't think there the same as a small or a big block there kinda in between. I would Take my old one off and have a muffler shop make me some headpipes to drop down for the duals and start back from there. If you wanted all new If I were doing...
