    M35a2 and COMBATT relocating again!

    If you haven't transported your stuff yet, check out my post a few minutes ago in this folder. Got a neighbor that is transporting a dozer back to AZ from MO, so he might be willing to help depending on location since he'll be driving through anyways while empty.

    AZ to MO to AZ - Open space on flatbed semi trailer late May

    My neighbor asked if I knew anyone that needed anything transported while he has to make a trip with his semi to pick up a dozer he bought in MO. We live just off the I-40 70mi west of Flagstaff, but he said that he'd be willing to 150mi off course for anyone needing anything transported. I have...

    Fan clutch delete?

    I have the fan clutch rattle, however I also have an issue with air being applied to the fan clutch at all times (shutterstat problem). I know this is two separate issues and instead of rebuilding the air/belt powered system I’d like to change the fan clutch out for a dummy pulley, and put in...

    A2 Coolant sensor?

    I thought I already posted a reply, good thing I was wondering why I hadn't had any response yet, it's the only reason I actually checked the post. The main thing I'm looking for is whether or not I'll have room for this thermistor within that mounting point for the coolant sensor. The threads...

    A2 Coolant sensor?

    When I was overseas they either joked about me being a real redneck, or a lobster, depending on how bad the sunburn was. I was in a perpetual state of sunburn every time i was deployed.

    A2 Coolant sensor?

    Sure, I'd love to see it. Definitely sounds like an interesting layout. I'm also trying to find space to put a radio as well. Once I finish the gauges and whatnot, then I'll see if I have any reasonable room up top for the dash/backup cam and the radio. No, I've never used the hinges that fold...

    A2 Coolant sensor?

    Not yet, but imagine directly above, in the wasted space of the canvas top or hardtop area. I'll try to remember to work on a pic, but it's dark outside now.

    A2 Coolant sensor?

    I'm lazy too, but in this case, like you said that darn thing is a royal PITA to get to so I thought I'd ask here first. Do you have pic of it? I'm wondering if I have enough room in it's hole for a different sensor. Since I'm changing a bunch of stuff to digital in the cab. This is the sensor...

    A2 Coolant sensor?

    Anyone with the A2 truck (6CTA8.3 engine)...Has anyone pulled their coolant sensor to replace it or even just pulled it in general? I'm thinking of changing the sensor, but was wondering how large/long it is. I'm considering changing it out with a thermistor so I can read it with something else...

    I did take the 939 to a speedco once to get the oil changed, But all they could do was change the oil, which still cost $100. Just plain std oil, nothing synth about it. If I had the power requirements for a Bridgeport I would certainly buy one, but I’m of grid running of solar, and to set up 3...

    CNC Mill

    Sadly, with as far out in the boonies as I live, there is no one near me that would have a Bridgeport. If I did they’d make a killin off me 😂 I’m just about to spend $600 on the cheap HF mini lathe just so I can get the hydraulic legs going again for the RV project.

    Wow, I got on the website to look for information regarding GP small tents and found something else I needed. Since I’ve seen this, I’ve got a couple questions since any shops that are “local” to me are either not reliable, or won’t consider work that isn’t under a large contract. 1) Is anyone...

    M109 no longer an Emergency

    Have they made it home safely? I just returned from a 5k road trip up to the chicago area, first time I saw the email. Apologies for being late to the party.

    So who has bumped the power on a 6CTA cummins

    Outside of the things you’ve already addressed, such as filters, the thing that made the biggest difference was when I had my injectors overhauled. I had tried the cleaners but they weren’t able to get them clean for some reason. Maybe because of the JP8 we had to use in the Army?? Either way it...

    Cummins 6CTA8.3 Injection Timing

    300-375psi is what the cummins book says, if you think it’s incorrect blame them, I’m just citing the book lol edit; but I think that is to allow even the slightest opening in the valves to show up

    Cummins 6CTA8.3 Injection Timing

    I’m actually going to bump mine up 2* and see what it does. Im still contemplating using my water pump from Snow performance to build the 300 psi needed for the spill port timing.

    Cummins 6CTA8.3 Injection Timing

    Been a couple years since the meat of this thread was written. Anyone have updates on timing changes and corresponding EGT/MPG values? I still haven’t done this myself yet, but with the new replacement IP I’m getting about 7.1mpg and around 1050egt flat and level at 55mph. Still gutless on a...
