I did a tremendous amount of panel replacement on my 1009. I started out using a 110v flux core wire welder that I borrowed from my bro-in-law. It worked OK, but my Millermatic 210 MIG made me look like a pro. I cut and butt welded everything. It can take an extra 30 minutes to fit a complex...
Good thought. If one person can bring a computer, then the rest of us can bring flash drives with our old pics and vids. I have some good ones from '05 and '06. Maybe one of the more computer savvy members can also set up a live webcam. We definitely need to video the truck pulls, mud bogs...
Hey Joe. You might check with Clark truck. They aren't the fastest if you are in a hurry, but they have a ton of suppliers on speed dial and have helped me find some hard-to-find 939A2 stuff in the past.
PM sent on some other stuff too.
Thanks Will. I did not know that would require swapping gear cases. Bummer. Here are some pics of the pump on the CTA 8.3 in the 939A2 trucks along with a pic of the RQV governor from the P7100. What is the actual model designation for this pump? I see the AFC has a star wheel adjustment...
Unfortunately, the transmission is almost at its limit already. I have seen anywhere from 250 to 270 HP as the max HP limit. The transfer case will be OK so long as you don't try low-range and reverse at the same time. That tends to crack the case.
There are some marine versions of the CTA...
Sounds good David. Will you bring the Goat, the Mog, or both? :twisted:
Anyone else have some ideas about events or competitions for the Rally?
Show-N-Shine?
GPS Scavenger Hunt?
Case Races?
Technical Demonstrations?
Vendor's Area?
Snipe Hunt? :-D
I just got some great news. Our esteemed BBQ pit boss, Cabell Garbee, has agreed to be the dinner chef for Thursday, Friday, and Saturday night. We'll come up with a great menu featuring some variation of pork, beef, and chicken. I had Cabell's BBQ hog meat at Aberdeen 2007 and deep fried...
:wink:
No the winch is still sitting on the same pallet behind my Dad's house that it came home on :roll: My brother and I are going to spearhead the restoration of the truck after the first of the year. We are trying to gather as many parts as possible right now. It runs, drives, and...
I just bought a rebuilt air compressor from this guy:
JR Roberts
REI Brake Supply
800-489-9860
He was great to deal with. It was around $350 + core for the compressor with a 1-year warranty. The only issue you will have is it won't come with any of the thread-in fittings that you will need...
I'm not kidding by the way. If you don't want to sell the whole thing or any of the equipment, then I have a request. Can you please take the hard to find items like the trunnion and sheaves to an engineering firm and get some CAD drawings made of them? I will pay for the drawings and your...
