If anyone can use anything I post or do...I am always glad to help and offer it all freely
Getting closer that's for sure! I got ALOT of shoehorning to do with the Cummins/Eaton, but I am not sweating as much as the rear suspension, once placed it dictated the whole build!...so I have alot...
4.15.18 Update Finished removing overloads and started stripping.
Like I said in the video I would be alot further along if I had just removed the rivets for the boogie mount and remade the plate...took out 24 rivets in less than 4 hours!
Lost some more weight
Anybody need a spare tire mount...
We got problems, the Torino is getting jealous and feeling neglected!
Okay know strange and unexplained things happen everyday, probably more so at the 'Garage than elsewhere, but rarely do I have tangible evidence! I think the boss' Torino is getting jealous and feeling neglected! That's my...
4.11.18 Got Order
Well Guyz,
Got my order from Dave and company at Eastern Surplus, they ran out of the NOS pins (I got the last 3) and called to comfirm if used would do, I asked that they pick the best they had, so they did. I should get the mounts plumbed, drilled and attached in the...
Juan and all,
When this whole fiasco started, I was looking for automotive lobbiest and SEMA was one of them. I feel that they had a generic proposal of the bill, but it appears that someone was holding the exact wording back. The page you referenced did indeed change between the time I...
According to Porky that's a lot of weight! I will be making it part of the spare tire carrier assembly (my bed can only be 8' 15 63/64" long MAX to be "compliant" so I won't be mounting inside the bed and take up any of the precious square inches I have left) so the extra pics would not do me...
Formula please
What is the formula you used to determine the number and size of the holes you drilled in the flapper and spring pressure needed. I will be modding a NOS M915 Freightliner (read using the actuator only) for 5 inch exhaust .
Thanks

Uhmm Sir Jbulach and Mr Gimpy,
Red Barn abandoned the Eaton H110 decades ago, I called them a few years ago on an old web post I saw in a mudder forum and the guy that answered had no idea what aa H110 was, nor did the guy he passed me to. If you know a place other than the Aussis, please post...
The best diff would be either a air or electric locker but we are SOL on this unless we have an Aussi company make a one off for VERY big bucks. Not in the books for me at least.
I actually sought advice on this subject earlier this year, please see...
HiYa Folks,
Looking for suggestions/recommendations for Medium Duty hanging pedals. After looking at my truck and how they designed the front cab mount, it would be more trouble to re engineer M35 front cab mounts on my M135 than it is worth. I will save the pedals I got from Deuceman for...
As promised 4.5.18
Ordered the M105/M35 pins and shackles from Eastern Surplus.
The plan is video Saturday morning. Clean/paint brake backing plates. Sand and prime frame/axle cab back. Remove springs and drill rear spring mount to frame. Get Eastern Surplus order and install parts...
