    My newest turd: Jeepsinker's M49A2

    That, and a whole lot of body work. Most of which is going to require a torch and welding machine. There isn't one thing on the truck that isn't bent.

    So, what's the one thing you'd change?

    Yep. The chat bubble pisses me off, and I never use it anyway.

    Actually, that sounds plausible. Only one of every 100 trucks had a winch, so that wouldn't be too much work.

    More pics, the winch is pretty well destroyed.

    Piston Rings Worn Out, Time for a Rebuild

    Maybe those two ring pistons are the old 17:1 fabled pistons? I don't know, just surmising.

    HanksDeuce: 8" Lift, Bobbed, External Cage, A/C and more Project!

    Sounds like a plan, assuming I don't blow it up between now and then. I think that video was on one of my threads. Edit: it was on the 75 mph in a deuce thread.

    A flathead V8? That is really neat.

    5 ton 12v 5.9 repower?

    Well thanks for all that. I was always told they were dry liner engines. Never had to open one up yet.

    Ok. Pull the shutoff cover off ( the two screw cover where the shutdown cable connects), there you will see the shutdown lever with a two screw, safety wired bridge plate holding it in. First, make sure that lever moves freely. You'll be removing it whether it moves freely or not. When you pull...

    That tanker looks just like mine, only not all beat up. The poor truck with the water tank in the back, once again, injector pump off and laying in the seat.:doh::mad:

    Yeah, it is just easier to fix the HH than to change the whole pump. When these pumps get rebuilt, they don't get a new or rebuilt hydraulic head, so it is entirely possible that your head is bad. Are you familiar with the removal and installation procedures for the head?

    The A2 fender is what you are used to. The gasser fenders, and even the A1 fenders I think, both leave you no room to work on the engine, because the inner portion extends so far in toward the motor, and then drops straight down. There is no slope to the inner parts. I don't have any pics of the...

    Looks like I need one of the pins that slides with the vanes too. I really appreciate you checking for me Gerhard. Thank you.

    5 ton 12v 5.9 repower?

    The 8.3l is a dry liner motor. Nothing there to get a hole in it and leak.

    Hey! There's a man that seems to know everything! Gerhard, where can I get vanes for my fuel pump?

    rofl I don't want to get arrested for shipping someone Hantavirus... Otherwise you would have yourself a deal!

    How often do you tow half a ship with your HET ?

    No it wouldn't necessarily. Temperature is what kills automatic transmissions, and crawling around as slow as it would be, using the truck's gearing, it should pull it fine and not be hurt. When it comes to something like this, either it will pull it, or the clutches in the transmission will...

    Don't swap the pump. Pull the hydraulic head. If the button and retainer on the bottom has fallen off, there is your problem. If not, your hydraulic head has $hit the bed.

    Will it restart when the motor is still hot?

    Low air pressure buzzer is dead.

    I've only ever seen a DOT officer once in this state, and he was chasing a log truck.
