The truck is back at johns shop. I made it as far as a gas station. And thank you ill try and put the bolts in in the morning

Hmmm, I had replied but it didn't show up.

Anyway, the fan clutch looks a lot like a Horton clutch, which is quite common. Might be able to find parts at a heavy truck place. From what I could find, it should need air to disengage. Easy way to check, when the truck is off and there is no air pressure in the system, grab the fan and see if it turns. If it doesn't, then you should be able to unhook the supply line and cap it and the fan will stay on. If it turns then that probably means the friction material is shot and you will have to see if it can be bolted together.

As for the alternator, I believe it is same as the 250, you just might have to change the pulley.

Good luck, and hope everything goes better!

 

[Sumner]

Cool, looks like 73m819 got the info already! I'm still trying to download the manual, but it's taking a while.

 

[seano11]

Ya I'm hoping one off of a 250 will work

the a2 8.3l clutch is not the same as the NHC250 and does not have the lock out bolt feature nor the bolts. Pictures and procedures referenced earlier are not correct.

See the attached -23 manual page

It don't look good according to the manuals. They look different to me but I don't have a 939 handy to go out and look.

 

[seano11]

Which picture is of the 8.3 alternator ?

 

[NDT]

The only difference between the 60 amp alt on the 250 and the CTA is the pulley.

Good luck on the Epic multi-country recovery!

With recent bankruptcy of Hostess, you might have paid for trip by hauling down truckload of Twinkies from Canada to be sold on Ebay to USA crazies . . . . news showed them selling for $30 a box! KS town of Emporia will be losing 700 jobs unless bankruptcy agreement is reached.

Best of luck to you.

Ice Road Trucker

Take your time coming back. Started snowing at 800hrs and finished at noon with 200mm on the ground in the North End, 170mm South.

Back in Fort Mac., you have 78% humidity with highs of -18c and lows of -31c.

That truck is going to fight you all the way home. Not because it's bad, rather because it's smart and knows where you're takin' it.

Stay warm while you can.

A little photo of the M1010 in the snow.

The one on the right came out of the 939 manual. The one on the left is out of the 809 manual and looks more like the older Deuce alt.
