Sorry your pump was a challenge. Find anything suspect once out?

Awesome write up! Keep the pics and info flowing! I’m particularly interested in the rear engine mounts to flywheel housing if you change housings, as well as U joint at trans choice, trans length, front prop shaft clearance, and trans PTO clearance once installed.

That is called a rear PTO, or RPTO. Common usually on concrete mixer trucks, where they have no firewall due to rear mounted and backward facing engine.

Your truck heats up awfully fast, like the water pump is not even working. Your belt, belt tension, and fan seem OK? You should hear the fan engage about 200F. The water pump is just an O ring and 3 bolts. I would pull that to check and see that the impeller is still complete and attached...

Yep. I’m trying not to use one of those as it will cause the shifter to have more travel than without.

Yeah most I am seeing are $250-$400 for the plate complete with bars and forks, so that one was a deal. I think mine is pretty far forward, may need to bend stick rearward.

Not sure if the forward shift tower location on your trans means middle position vs rear, but here is a mid shift bar plate complete for yours for $50 if it helps you: https://www.mylittlesalesman.com/1979-fuller-rt9513-transmission-shift-cover-1136983

She looks good! Do it !!!!

I think the 250 engine has the trans sitting rearward more? Here are a few pics I snapped today of the 13 speed Roadranger RTO-12513 bolted up to a 400hp ISL RV engine, dual disc clutch, and hydraulic throwout bearing. Wondering how it compares in sight to your 9513. I bought the old style...

Sorry I’m late in reply. This was how much I sliced off the offset striking wrench, using just a 4” angle grinder with metal cutting disc in it, wrench held in vice:

Your initiative may prompt me to finish mine. I could see where losing a trans would push the project. Pics mandatory! Post any snags or differences. I think the 9513 is a physically smaller trans than a traditional Eaton / Fuller Roadranger dual shaft unit?

We have a bead roller at work I’d be happy to do that part for you. Did you try a Cummins dealer using your engine serial number? Quickserve?

No, the hp level.

Congrats. How do you know such number?

The stock military alternators have several different common failure modes, their technology and materials are from generations before it, let alone expensive to repair. Any modern alternator will run circles around it in reliability, possess better cooling, have built in fail-safes, they...

FB has an NHC-250 for $1k in PA. Gov rebuilt. I’d just rebuild the one you have though.

For mine it took most but not all of the 20 tons.

Ooofffff....... is this that same truck? Uh oh.....

Could be front crank seal or timing cover gasket. Mine were leaking. Did both same time in a parking lot with only 2 tools. Very quick and easy to change.

It should not be dual thermostat. My 6CTA8.3 is single stat.
