    Bobber Rear Axle Problem

    If you look at a front end there is no locator pin on the axle just the rears and just the clamping force of the U bolt. I would worry more about someone cutting the 105 frame and welding it to the Deuce frame just so they can run 53's. I would worry more about home built perches or lifting...

    M923 NHC250 Ether Pressure Switch

    No Fuel, No Start, No Idea

    Don't loose it. I have with two people not had to crack the injector lines at the injector to remove the Head. We just took off all vibration clips and I wrapped my belt around all loose injector lines and as I lifted up very carefully on all the lines Pete removed the head. If you are alone you...

    How to remove the Fuel Shutoff Rod on the IP

    Just to add a side note. When you go to put the fuel control rod back into the head since the control collar (plunger sleeve) is down, the fuel control assembly linkage arm is going to look like it is around the 4 to 5 o'clock position or real close to the shut off position. So hold the...

    No Fuel, No Start, No Idea

    Are we talking about the same thing. Though you were talking about the small pin that is in the end of the fuel control assembly that controls the fuel collar. OK you did say the fuel shut of cover. As I said before if there is fuel to the head and you remove the shut down cover and the fuel...

    No Fuel, No Start, No Idea

    The wedge or pin can not fall out if the fuel control is not removed.

    M923 NHC250 Ether Pressure Switch

    OK bottom one is used to make sure the cold start can not be used when the truck is running and top is the Diagnostic. I did not have a 939 series that long and tried to get through the TM's. I don't like gages install in the engine compartment and left there. Guess if you had one you could...

    M923 NHC250 Ether Pressure Switch

    Was that not part of the Diagnostic system, anyway just a port into the PT. I would dump and plug.

    Bobber Rear Axle Problem

    Well if we don't blow smoke and we have done a lot of trucks then we would know where to relocate the pin. So we remove the axles drill another hole, thread it and screw in another stud. That way when we go to place the axle on the bob there is no measuring and we do nothing but tighten up the U...

    Bobber Rear Axle Problem

    Over thinking it maybe. If the u bolts were loose enough to go side to side then as soon as you hit the brakes the axle would walk all the way back to the spring hanger. Do what you feel is right.

    Bobber Rear Axle Problem

    I worry more about an axle sliding on the springs than I ever would going side to side. That is why I use the correct perches and new correct bent U bolts. Do what ever make you feel right.

    Bobber Rear Axle Problem

    Why would you need to weld the Deuce perches. When the locator pin is used on a non bobbed truck the pin just sets the rears in the correct spot no guess work no measure when replacing a rear. The perches have tabs that cup the axle both top and bottom and prevent it from going anywhere if you...

    USMC M813 fording question

    Also I would worry about the fuel tanks. The ones I have seen have non vented caps and you better make sure the gasket does not leak. Also most of the vents I have seen on the fuel tanks have a fitting then rubber hose and plastic lines that run to the vent block that is on the passenger side of...

    USMC M813 fording question

    About the poppets on the trans. one would think since it is just a exit for the air when the piston changes from forward and reverse it should expel what little water could get in there. Since there is a fitting with NPT threads for the exhaust fitting it would be easy to do. Also I would since...

    No Fuel, No Start, No Idea

    Sounds like the in tank pump is not working. You do not need to fill any canister by hand if the in tank pimp is working. This system is self bleeding so no need to crack injectors. Easy way to check in tank is pumping would be crack the bleeder between the secondary and final fuel filter...

    Unknown, But Probably Missing Plug

    If you close off the hole then rear main seal leakage could flood clutch if you have one or just fill up the housing. Not good ether way but you can also put in a ball valve in there and make it easy to close/open when needed.
