HA! i got that issue to someplace. one of the mags built a 715 with rockwells to compete in the Top Truck Challenge. The winch bumper on that truck was sweet.
i had a punk kid(high school kid in a rich neighborhood-i gave him the one finger salute at the next light) cut me off in an H2 Hummer-and i mean like 3 feet from my bumper when his lane ended. my M135 rolls on 16.00-20's-and my bumper filled his back window. man, i really wish there was an IQ...
who needs highway gears?
instead of bobbing my M135, i just dropped out a rear axle, centered it in the wheelwell, used F600 springs and hangers, and built a dropped frame section to mount it all up. stock springs and hangers in the front, but built dropped mounts for the hangers. swapped in...
well good things come to those that wait. case in point-i just scored a 4bt turbo. after i scrapped out the machine it was in my total cost was less than $300. now for a tranny adapter/trans, starter, power steering bracket/pump. anybody know the difference between a 4bt automotive and a 4bt...
my 725 still has all its original markings, although a bit faded. but i'm not sure exactly what your looking for. like what is a g2g? provide me with some more specific info and i'll try to help.
i invisted about $3,000 in making my rims. it was years ago, before everybody else started using the 16.00x20's. back then i couldn't find anybody that had a set. had em shipped from georgia to michigan. i bought super single rims(i believe), machined them out on a big lathe. I would never...
dang! just reading all the work that went into building that is giving me a headache.looks like you did a nice job tho stretch. i think i'll just keep buying at the pump. unless u plan on sellling 'em. lol. seriously tho, nice engineering job.
yeah, somebody fill me in on wmo in a cummins. i'm swapping a 1990 5.9 cummins into my 68 dodge w500 crew cab project truck. and i have about 200 gallons of wmo in 5 gallon jerry cans that i need to dispose of.
i am looking for front leaf spring perches, for both ends of the front springs. mine were torched off by the previous owner :x . does anybody have a frame for parts that has good front perches, please let me know.
Elwenil- i measured my motorhome trans(it has the drum parking brake and a flat faced flange output: ie-studs) against a regular 727 2 wheel drive truck/passenger car trans and the motorhome version is about 8 inches shorter. My buddies at the local trans shop said that i have the shortest...
Elwenil-whats wrong with the np200? i was planning on swapping one into my m-135(currently using a np205-kinda small, but i had it sitting around-took 4 hrs to install). in regards to the length: water pump to output flange on the 413/727 is about 65 inches. and it looks like the core support to...
THANKS EVERYBODY! the combo i have is about 64 inches long, so i dont think its gonna fit without moving the t-case. RRRRRRR. nothing is easy, LOL. the manifolds should fit, they point straight down(its a motorhome drivetrain) . case in point: the trans on my m-135 died on me a few years ago...
my 725 came with nothing forward of the firewall. i have mostof it now, except the spring hangers/mounts(they were torched off :x ), fenders, and a motor/trans. i have a 413/727 that i would like to use. can someone tell me the length of the original motor/trans-fan to trans output? and i...
yup. the 4bt cummings would be a great swap. the 3 i have seen had a gm th400's attached. although i haven't seen one in a 715/725. and now that i want a 4bt, i can't find one locally.
i swapped rockwell toploaders into my m-135. hooked everything up, but can't seem to get the brakes to bleed out. they worked fine before i swapped the axles. now the pedal is spongy, and i get intermittent brake pressure that changes wheel location every time i hit the whoa pedal. i have the...
