I purchased 4 in same crates as you saw these in, and they were used take-outs. But mine were complete, after a little clean up they look great. I had to fabricate 2 new bases for mine, as the HEMTT bases that were attached were angled so had to do a bit of fabricating to get the...
Not trying to beat this to death, but it's not really fudging. I spoke with a MC inspector earlier whom I know, and he told me that as long as the truck was built to contract specs (FMVSS requirements at time of contracted build), then it's not an issue...as long as none of the GVWR, GCWR, Dry...
According to my DMV rep (I know, different state but I was curious) all you need is to get hold of a sticker/plate that says something to the effect of "This motor vehicle complies with all FMVSS requirements at the time of its manufacturing" or something to that effect, and place it on the...
I meant to pass this along earlier; the alternators used in A2s is a AMA-5108UT. Erik's has parts for the 5104 & 5102, but didn't see anything for the 5108s used in A2s. I had 2 alternator shops search far & wide, but couldn't find any parts anywhere for it.
One shop did provide me with some...
Trying to find the proper mounting bracket is proving to be quite a challenge ( Cummins 3929418 ). Almost all of the wrecking yards in southern Nevada were out-of-stock of Cummins 8.3L 6CT engines; only one yard had them (B&R), but they only sell complete engine assemblies - no parts off of...
Finally got around to finishing my exhaust conversion and adding a heat shield to the muffler. I used 5-inch steel exhaust tubing and elbows, along with a Donaldson single-stage muffler. I made my own adapter brackets that would bolt into stock exhaust/muffler locations, yet allow the muffler...
Well 74M35A2, you might be in business more than you think....my 931A2 alternator smoked the regulator, and I've spent the last 2 weeks being told by all of my formerly reliable alternator/generator rebuilders that they can't get parts for the stock L-N alternators anymore. I just want my stock...
I recently had to replace all 4 seals on rear axles & 2 seals on transfer case on my M931A2...too much sitting around made them brittle and cracked. I also replaced all the bolts & nuts that attached driveshafts to pinions, as most had been overtorqued and were stripped.
The good news is that...
Very soon, got the passenger side completed and was preparing to do the driver's side when my alternator burned up right after the Veteran's Day Parade.... :mad:
