    Off to a good start, I think

    Found myself spending too much time staring at Facebook and wondering what is wrong with people so I got rid off it lol. Still miss it for some of the groups and market place though.

    MO Success in Missouri

    Used to have my m51a1 insured thru Farmers. Sold it then switched everything over to Progressive. Called today about insuring my m35a2. Had to do a commercial policy because it weighs over 12k. $217 a year for liability.

    MV Parts store fuel filter kit install/review

    I installed mine last week. It’s a winch truck and didn’t have to modify the fittings under the ip. Had to make a different return line though. But being 50 yrs old no telling if it was original or not.

    Inline pump pulling thru stock pump

    I ordered a carter inline pump to install. Do you guys pull thru your factory pump or pull it out and make a suction line?

    Inline pump

    I checked it. Fuse was good just no power to it. I gave it 24v and made sure it had a good ground and still nothing. Got a pump ordered. Don’t have any lights other than headlights either so I’m suspecting a bad connection somewhere under the dash

    Off to a good start, I think

    Brung the deuce home a few weeks ago. Took off work this past week to get some stuff done to her. The wife named her Mary on the way home with her. She had named the previous m51a1 Myrtle. Replaced the master cylinder, soft lines, wheel cylinders and adjusted the brakes. Serviced the wheel...

    Inline pump

    I understand the needing a lift pump. A lot cheaper than unnecessary wear on the ip. I only plan on clean diesel and a filter before the pump would be a good idea

    Inline pump

    Went to start the truck today after a lot of work and spin on filter kits. Realized the intank pump doesn’t work and it’s not getting power. Double whammy. During my online search for a pump I found a lot of people saying the inline pumps didn’t have the gph to keep the engine happy. Has anyone...

    C&c dumpbed install hydraulic fitting questions

    I guess I should of googled the part number on it. Pulled up as a load control valve and tells where to install. You guys were right. I work with hydraulics but we use flow control valves and haven’t ran into these before. We also don’t work with stuff where a blown hose could drop something on you.

    C&c dumpbed install hydraulic fitting questions

    I’m installing my dumpbed kit from c&c and have a hydraulic question but they’re closed. Hoping one of you have done this. One of the 4 orb hydraulic fittings is different. Looks to maybe have a flow restriction built in. Any idea which port it goes to. It’s not in the instructions.

    No fdc?

    Why should I install a fdc? I always hear of them being bypassed. I only plan on running diesel with some clean new motor oil for lube.

    No fdc?

    Thanks, I had never heard of em not having them. Was excited to see I had a lds motor though

    No fdc?

    Upgrading to spin on fuel filters and was checking to see if the fdc had been bypassed yet. It appears I don’t have one I think. Should be on the firewall side of the injection pump right behind the hh correct? Is this normal? It has the lds-465-1a rebuilt in 92 if that matters.

    Pulling front hub problem

    Ended up setting up an h beam puller and it came off. Looks like at some point some one cut a bearing off the spindle and got into the spindle a bit. Left a raised burr to drag on. I was told it just had all new bearings. I’m glad I tore into it to replace all the brake hydraulic parts. Instead...

    Pulling front hub problem

    Tried putting a spacer under the cap and using the bolts to tension it and beat on it. Tried putting the heat to it. She ain’t budging

    Pulling front hub problem

    I’ll try that. Just pulled the passenger side and it came apart like it should.
