    LDS VS LDT and the real differences

    JATONKA M35s NEW NOS LDS PISTON AND LINER KITS LDS pistons and sleeves can be interchanged according to Jatonka... I think we are down to the rockers may be a different ratio, the pump gets cranked up to use all that new air, and the oiled pistons are there to keep it alive. The air filter...

    LDS VS LDT and the real differences

    Diagram found, but other than the quote from earlier in the thread, I cannot verify that. TM 9-2815-210-34 has a picture.. Fig 18... but the exact ratio isn't listed. It is, however, the only difference that makes sense, considering the exhaust is the same old LDT part, and the LDS is getting...

    I'm looking for the part diagrams as we speak.

    LDS VS LDT and the real differences

    Wait a minute... TM-9-2815-210-34-2-1 Say the differences are: Piston... oiled vs unoiled Intake Rocker arms of increased lift ratio on the LDS LDT&LDS -1 timed at 20deg BTDC, LDS-2 @ 22deg The injectors themselves are interchangeable, as are the IPs, blocks, heads, lions, tigers, and...

    Welding using the deuce as a power supply

    You can save those batteries by hitting the terminals with the welder... no joke! Take the ground clamp and the contact tip of your favorite welder, and put the welding current through the battery. It will burn out the shorting structures inside the battery and repair it. Zap Ni-Cd Batteries...

    new air petcock and air accessory system

    One of the benefits of the trucks I'm looking at is the air system. I should have an air tank available from a guy who is parting out a batwing that I can use to increase my capacity. The valve looks fine, just put a t-connector and make sure you drain the other tank at the same time, no big...

    LDS VS LDT and the real differences

    Or, if my reading is correct, I would need to install LDS pistons, intake rockers, and adjust the fuel pressure to match... The turbos, fuel pumps, timing, heads, exhaust, cams, and injectors were all identical, or interchangeable, between LDT and LDS engines... and I can safely turn an LDT into...

    LDS VS LDT and the real differences

    Point taken. LDS it is.... as long as it doesn't add $1000, anyway. :driver: I'll try to find a PTO and winch later... or maybe just a hydraulic pump to put on the PTO to pipe for ports up front and in back to run whatever I want. (winch, hoist, dump-ram, pump, generator, log splitter... oh...

    LDS VS LDT and the real differences

    In know you guys hate dumb questions, but I'm looking at my first deuce in 3 weeks or so... is it worth holding out for the LDS engine, or possibly paying more to get one? Is the extra 40hp/longevity a deal maker or breaker? (My price range is $3000-$4000, and I know that won't get me a winch.)...
