Was wondering same on this, thanks to the OP. I bought some aircraft seat belts, and are able to drop them between the troop seat slats and clip them to these points. It seems like thin metal at the hinged retaining portion. Not expecting to really use them to their full strength, truck...
Is the transmission electronic only? Most transmissions will default into a specific forward gear as limp-home, if the selector is cable driven, but in this case it sounds not to be?
You could possibly jump the starter at the starter solenoid to get the engine running, but I am unsure what...
Isn’t it the same base engine, 855? What is causing complications? I would think you just transfer the mounts and oil pan from your NHC-250 to the turbo BC engine and you’re off to the races. Apparently not? I’m sure you’re not doing extra work because you want to.
That's why I went with a modern EFI 400hp 8.9L ISL from an RV (not yet installed). Has 40 psi VGT boost from the factory, roller lifters, 4 valve head, genuine Jake brake, multiple injections per combustion event, and 2 piece steel topped pistons so EGT is no concern. Plus SAE certified...
Holset is mostly viewed as a technology follower, not leader, yet they are a sub of Cummins so will always be used by them. BorgWarner has paved the path as a leader in turbo technology, they are the supplier for the majority of Ford EcoBoost turbos, etc..... In situations where I have heard...
Yep. You can confirm this with a digital voltmeter, charging occurs at any voltage over 25.6v, with 28v range being most common.
The stock military alternator has about 4 different common failure modes, of which modern civilian alternators have cured all of. In addition, the modern...
Once original is removed, I would probably only re-install a newly fabricated one. Can be bought or made, people here have done both, successfully. For anybody doing this on a cargo bed M939 series, the tank or bed need to be pulled for enough clearance to remove the tube. The stock top...
My boss has (had) one. Was drilling holes in his boat hoist, kid tripped over the cord, the thing shut off, detached, and fell to the bottom of the lake.
I can guide you to the pulley you spec’d, but a 200A 24V alternator is 5,600 watts. This is more than most home generators. If you think you can really use that much power, the stock 8 rib belt system is not up to the task. That much power delivery through a belt system requires about a 12...
Don't go down the wrong path. Your fuel stop solenoid will not cause what you described. They are not garbage either, only for people who run batteries more than 5 years old in their trucks, yet keep them because they still start the truck (but voltage then drops below solenoid spec during...
