    14:00-24 or 16:00-24 tires?

    This spring i am putting 1600r20 tires on my 123a1c. I found rims with the right bolt circle and offset for the rear, but to put a 20 inch rim on the front the brake drum must be turned down and the air pod must be relocated. My 1400-24 tires are good, but 1600r20 tires singled out make road...

    Heater gone -5 degrees CODE RED!!

    Check the air door that is controled by the temp slide on the dash. Leaves and trash stop them from closing and allow cold air to bypass heat core. We blow compressed air in all the heat ducks, tons of crud comes out. The heater works much better after cleaning.

    5 ton v.s. Deuce

    RE: Re: RE: 5 ton v.s. duece The multi duece is lighter, faster, and more nimble than a multifuel 5 ton. a 54a2 tops out at 52 mph,. Five tons before the 800s have the worlds worst power steering. The trucks drive very differant. The duece is a sports car, the five ton is more of a tank. When...

    Loosen the pump ,and crank the engine. IF the pump jumps up and down the arm is moving. your bench test may have moved the arm further, or in a differant spot than when on the engine. the pump can be shot in the area that it always works. i see a lot of pump falures. never the cam.
