Shocks are made to retract (push in) easily. Then they rebound (push out) slowly. This is due to the restriction valves used in them to control movement or the bouncing of the vehicle. So what happens is you hit a bump and the suspension goes down. Now you have the vehicles springs pushing back...

You can get this fitting from any "Parker" hydraulic store.

I do know about the PTO ring. Also you could have a "retarder" installed there if you ordered it that way. Or you could rebuild it and install either the PTO ring or retarder. I would go with the PTO ring myself. I have a couple of transmissions I'm looking at right now. Both already have PTO's...

Do you know how to get in touch with him ? Thanks.

This question was never answered. Does anyone know the correct answer ? I'm thinking about installing a AT545 Allison in one of my older deuces behind a multifuel. The AT545 is rated to handle up to 30,000 Ibs so it would be fine in a deuce. Just push the transfer case back a bit and play with...

Glad you found the problem !

I'm not sure now. I was pretty sure it was a "Diamond" though. I had the truck scrapped this spring. The engine had two rods through the side of the block so I didn't try to save it. I sold the axles and let the rest go.

Now that is extremely creative ! Looks good too !

I have a "REO Diamond" . So it is suppose to have the GM 303 engine ?

My bad. I thought it was the same as my M211 engine.

You know they say imitation is the highest form of flattery. So I'm honored sir. Looking real good Clinto !

"Yella Yella old lady who ! " Your right, no one wants to hear that !

Now that was a smart neat fix !

You could have brake hose failure. The inner lining is coming loose and creating a "flap' of hose which blocks the fluid from returning. You also could have a stuck air-valve in the air-pac which is not allowing the pressure side to release. Check the brake hose for cracking and bulging. Replace...

Hello all. Well I finally pulled the trigger and bought "Tom's Overdrive Kit". It came the other day and all I have to say is WOW !!! This is one nice kit! I spent most of my 40 plus years working on trucks as a "gear man" . Transmissions, differentials, transfer-cases and auxiliary drives. In...

Yes, cannon connectors can cost well over $100.00 each . That's each end ! It can really add up fast. My little trailer connection box I built for my deuce cost me well over $1000.00 just in parts.

What he said :ditto: .

I would love to go to Switzerland someday. Beautiful country there.

That does look real cool ! Just like I was back in my tank at night getting ready to light up some enemy vehicle.
