well, apparently someone is taking a bath, because this one: 1995 Stewart & Stevenson M1078 LMTV Cargo Truck, 4x4, 2 1/2 ton capacity, with locking inter-axle differential. Powered by a Caterpiller 3116 6-cylinder diesel engine driving through an automatic transmission. serial number...

8.3 conversion, hands down, 400/1000 should be very easy to do...

good to see you got your alternator in and some other things done.. will come up for a ride when the weather warms up...

why not flip the hubs so the wheels match? otherwise, nice truck..

what did you decide to do about the headlights? (location, multiple lights, etc)

That motor responds to mods much the way the smaller B (5.9) engines do. To get a good power increase while maintaining drive-ability and reliability (in almost any diesel) you need to look at only three or four things: Getting plenty of air into the engine - factory intakes, air filters and...

Just a bump for updates... Did you get your alternator? (received or installed) Cheers

CTA motor all day every day and dont buy anything from Banks, its over priced junk. There are much better choices out there for ISB and CTA Cummins parts. Look at the drag racers and sled pullers (running those two motors) and I can promise you NONE of them are running Gale's crap. There is a...

as noted, that is an FLD120 Freightliner cab, readily available in crew cab configuration. In fact there was one posted here in another thread that was for sale for about 35 grand (black crew cab) IMO, the Navy truck posted is ugly as ****, proportions are all wrong and it really has no style...

seat heaters are readily available online and from wrecking yards. A friend who does custom upholstery installs them regularly. Very simple really, just a "mat" with inductive heating elements installed under the seat covering material. Plug them into 12 volts and there is a rheostat type of...

Right here in this thread: (towards bottom of page two) Zenith spring In Duluth Mn. can get you the longer springs you need. Mine are like 64-66 inches. I bought 4 and took two little ones out of each side. They were around 300 for the set I think.

Well, as Travis said I came up Saturday with a buddy and we hung out for a few hours with him and his dad. The truck is well built and looks much cooler in person than in the pics. The proportions are correct even with the short bed and huge tires and the Cummins motor fits perfectly in the...

sent you a PM about coming to check out the truck on Saturday. Thanks

awesome build, not much i would have done differently. hope you tabbed the KDP on that 12 valve before you put it in.. looking forward to seeing this done and might be in Greenville this coming weekend if you are around after the holiday.

Im no expert by any means, but I believe only the A2's had the CTA motor, which is similar to the 5.9L B series. Displacing 8.3L and having a mechanical injection pump, it is good for many hundreds of HP and several thousand pound feet of torque with the proper mods, so just decide how much...

just found this in a link from another thread... cant say anything that has not been said already. Going back a bit, the front axle appears to be a portal of some kind. At least the centerline of the beam is higher than the centerline of the hub. What can you tell me about it? Thanks and keep...

The only acceptable V8 swap into a Deuce is a Duramax, preferably with twin turbos, EFI Live, twin CP3;s and about 1000 hp :D

bumpity bump bump.. surely someone can measure a cab :D

forgive me for thinking on this or maybe asking a dumb question, but why in the world would the Army be getting rid of A3's when they are are only a dozen years old or so? I can see A2s and all the older stuff for sure, though it does make more sense to maintain or reman something than to build...
