That is interesting engine placement. So are you going to fix this thing up and flip it, or try and use it for parts?

I would try and find a set of rings for one cylinder, buy them, then try and match them up to a better quality new production set. Something that will last longer. Rings that only last 1500 hours almost have to be made of crap material, unless you consider the whole multifuel dry start issue...

Multifuel deuce.

They look pretty clean as far as the engines go man.

Or a cheap sale.

Ok so nothing special then. Direct drive trans even.

What is the trans shift pattern? And what does the speedometer max at?

Oh, there is a fella around here with a couple of those that are just sitting and rotting now. Apparently he used to drill shallow water wells with them before he retired from the business.

Either way will straighten it. Take the easiest route to accomplish your goal.

I'm sure you'll do a great job, but you posted this thread in the wrong section. It should be posted under the 5 ton modification section. I'm sure it will be moved shortly.

I figured he was talking about a pipeline deuce...

You don't need to put that much silicone when you pack the bearings. Just be sure to have the keyway clean and pack it up good with gear oil specific silicone before and after the seal install.

You don't still have my shirt in large? I know I didn't make it, but I couldn't help it.

You can order a full set of them from any vendor that sells the friction pads. They are cheap, like $11.

Sure didn't want to miss this one... Sorry guys.

There is no longer any need for a prelube system once you install spin on filters. My oil pressure builds in less than two seconds from pushing the start button now.

Actually, it might be worth just asking. Depends on how nice your higher- ups are. Worst they can do is say no. They may surprise you.

Wow, I just found this thread.... This whole hospital stay thing has really messed everything up for me.

Then he will have to do the civi alternator upgrade because they draw a bunch more amps than the led lights. Run your ground wires back to the negative post on the back battery and see if that helps.

Yes, coolant hoses, all of them. Preferrably with silicone hose so you never have to do it again. Also replace all of the freeze plugs in the heads while they are off.
