    6CTA8.3 engine rebuild for Sur Móvil

    Yeh, a few more items, some I knew and a few I didn’t, I’m just cheap, and like to build “different junk”. Maybe I can eventually sell the crank, rods, and block, to recoup some cost. Will, can you elaborate on what your looking for, other than the obvious, when inspecting the connecting...

    6CTA8.3 engine rebuild for Sur Móvil

    Thankfully just a cheap truck I bought for parts. It dropped a valve on the previous owner, he pulled the head and let the cylinders rust up. It needs at least a head, turbo, two injectors, 6 pistons/liners, and after cooler, just for starters. I have only robed a few small goodies off it...

    Deuce Front Bumper Tow Bar Mount (again)

    Thats cool, I have been looking to stow my tow bar on the front of my truck as well, and already have axle clamps. My question is how do you get it hung there initially, looks like it could be a bear? In your research have you seen anyone mount the tow bar, ready to use, then pivot it strait...

    What have you done to your FMTV or LMTV today

    Forget the tag axle for off road, I think you’ll be fine, you only added 2’ correct? Just be mindful of keeping the load as low and far forward as possible. The only thing I would consider is making the ICC bar hinge up.

    Alaska M939 Title Issues

    Do you have to title it before it gets into state? In Indiana everything that comes in needs inspected, but is just a simple running the VIN to make sure it doesn’t come back stollen.

    Dump hoist and removable bed

    Great idea, thanks for sharing! This goes on my to do pile...

    Hurricane Florence

    Apparently these guys have no idea what a tractor does? I know nothing about Yanmars, but your tractor should do fine at running your generator. If it eats itself between fill up’s, it was probably time for a new tractor anyhow...

    Trailer mod advice

    What are you going to haul on it?

    Underside of the deuce bed

    I forgot to mention, the mudflap hangers will support the weight of the bed just fine for just moving around the yard.

    6CTA8.3 engine rebuild for Sur Móvil

    Thanks! You just gave me one more reason to go with a complete different motor for my truck that has all the same engine damage.

    Trailer mod advice

    Looks scary. Ditch the whole axle and replace it while doing the suspension, or leave bad enough alone and consider it a life lesson...

    Hurricane Florence

    Crops are relatively cheap and likely going to take a beating anyway. Drive the trucks single file in the same tracks, if anyone asks, the wind must have blown them there? I’m hoping for the best for you and everyone in the path!

    Underside of the deuce bed

    I hauled this 500 miles using 8x8 and 8x12 cribbing about 36” long. Not a deuce bed, but pretty close[emoji6]

    M1078 LMTV CTIS Front Wheels Deflating

    Did it dump all the air out of the front tires? Where any of the tires lower in pressure than the rest?

    2018 Haspin Fall Mini-Rally

    Let me know if the tire needs a ride to Haspin, if I can get that M200 from Chris before then he can throw it on my pile and I will front the $ also. I will have to leave Haspin late Friday or way too early Saturday though. If the weather cooperates, I may just bring the pickup and camper up...

    No reverse on my M923A2

    If memory serves me correctly, there have been more than a few on here that croaked very shortly after switching from motor oil to dextron. I will keep motor oil in mine until it’s time for a rebuild...

    923a2 rebuild

    I think $600 is for a spool and the lockers are around $1200.

    M923 Fuel filter/water separator issues, won't drain, can't prime

    The switch is irrelevant to acceleration. More hard questions... Will the engine not rev above idle while in neutral, or is it just lacking power when your trying to drive?

    M923A2 loosing fuel prime overnight

    No, the reboot is not real, it’s just an example of an annoyingly simple question that should be eliminated as part of troubleshooting, before we jump to conclusions and start replacing random parts. Between my low idle of 450 rpm and my old batteries, my truck at times exhibits the exact same...
