I could, but I'll be standing in the back of the line at the local truck driving school to figure out how to drive this thing. The first days will be like accelerate - air puff - neutral - swear - coast back to zero, try again. Accelerate - grind - accelerate again in next gear - high five...

No big updates yet. Hope to get the oil pan changed today on my lunch break, and will do rear seal at same time so they can all settle in happily together. Did front seal this morning (this time with correctly sized stock one), and waiting on 8 rib compressor clutch to arrive, removed 10 rib...

Mostly doing engine stuff right now. Clutch inspection cover plate and release bearing grease tube arrived and test fit OK. Leaving trans PTO cover plate off until trans installed. Don't think I will be able to use the side mount 6 bolt window, we'll see.

Don't run/drive it with the pinion spinning. Over-running clutch will seize, starter will spin 200,000rpm, and the commutator splays out like a peeled banana in a cartoon. Then the pinion gear breaks off and goes round and round inside the flywheel housing, milling the housing. Remove...

Wrong alternator AND pulley? Where did you order this from?

No power for 5.6 million peeps or so. Take enough fuel and food to go in and out. Lock your own supplies, people will turn once the power has been out for several days. At one day out, fridges are still cold, etc... Cell towers are battery back up, but for 2 days or less. I'm not much of a...

Glad yourself and they are OK. Knarly carnage. Rims don't look like Lexus, car looks like Malibu/Impala? Doesn't matter now, on its way to China to come back as a Christmas ornament. 2-1/4" to get those rod ends off. Lower is gravy to change. Can pull it back into place and hold it in both...

Thanks, trying. Posting everything but used underwear photos.

No, he is saying don't take a space shuttle to space that is 25 years old and was auctioned off at the end of its life for peanuts above scrap value.

Did you order 2 alternators (spare)?

I'll take PPV's for $100. Pressure Protection Valve. Somebody check my thinking since I have never touched my air system. Low cost and in stock at NAPA, not sure it can cause over-pressure though. Wouldn't that be more associated with the air governor?

I don't know how to drive a 13 speed, so, it won't be that fast....

Probably not. :driver:

Jake brake install takes all sorts of parts. Most sellers just sell the used Jake housings themselves. Full installations requires different lower and upper valve covers, 2 hollowed intake rocker studs (oil supply), 6 top threaded hole exhaust rockers studs (housing mount), 6 tall threaded...

I don't get it. How is that big thing going to hide under the bed unless flipped over?

No. Driver only. I pile all sorts of passangers in, so I am keeping the bench. Recovering the bench in black. Yes, have air ride base for it. Air ride base came with a really nice seat on it, if somebody wants it. Adjustable arm rests, all that.

Thanks. Was going to press the seal into the carrier first, then bolt the carrier to the block. Going to do this at the same time as the oil pan swap so it can all be happy and seal together.

The RV ISL engine came equipped with an exhaust brake (butterfly valve on turbo outlet). I also just won an eBay auction for a Jake brake (compression brake, Cummins "C" brake) setup for this engine. Can't use both at the same time, but could select between one or another. The Jake is two...

Nice price and strength. Does it hit either axle in full suspension travel when hoist is collapsed?
