    Official 2012 SS Ga Rally Info thread

    Guys Seriously, Black is a standard color, does not show dirt, sweat and looks good. I have seen some nasty white and tan shirts in past years!

    Looking for 6602 Tach Part Number: Please look at your Tach

    Danl thanks for jumping in on this. It actually is a Pilot Bearing that is mounted in the flywheel. I have attached a picture from the TM for reference. I would agree that typically these are bushings but given the weight of the pressure plate and such I guess they used a bearing. I am...

    Looking for 6602 Tach Part Number: Please look at your Tach

    VT did you ever get down and look at your Tach? For an update, we are pulling 40 mph at 2k per the tach which is about right. At 1900 rpm the vibration kicks in and gets worse. I pulled the inspection cover on the bell housing and found a .25" ball that we are thinking is from the pilot...

    Looking for 6602 Tach Part Number: Please look at your Tach

    It gets a bit more interesting. So I pulled the dash out the other day. There is a pn on the tach that is maybe 4 digits. I could not find any numbers in the TM or G-744 that matched this short number and did not record. I may have to go back and get that number. I am curious what number you...

    Looking for 6602 Tach Part Number: Please look at your Tach

    VT we are still trying to sort this out but it seems from the research that the Tachs are different. The Gasser is driven off the distributor and the Multifuel is driven from the front timing cover. An interesting note is that the 2.5 ton gassers did not have a tach. If you can get the...

    M939 series rear axle seals

    Here are some pictures of the rear with the hubs off. I did not get any pictures of the seals after we setup the rear seal on the hub. A couple of things to note when installing the wear ring. 1.) boil water and put the wear ring in for one minute. Be careful not to overheat as it gets...

    Proper tires for M916A2 Frieghtliner

    From my knowledge which is very limited on this truck, I believe it would be a rear wheel drive truck designed for the highway. The size of the front tires would have no real impact on the operation of the truck as long as they were the following 1.) Properly rated tires for the weight 2.) A...
