Don't give up. Have you guys checked to see what the Cummins 855 engine uses for a bracket in big trucks? Maybe it is a plug and play piece from Cummins? Was not the case for the A2 8.3 with the military accessory drive config, which is why I made the kit. Maybe I should look into this for...
May be picking up a donor 923 roller and an 8v92ta to go with it. Wolf in sheep clothing. If transfer case won't live, then we'll just dump 2 lockers in the rear and extend the prop shaft.
I don't think we are allowed to use threads as classifieds (posting prices), but I do offer the 12v alternator as WildChild indicated. It is brand new not a reman, rated at 200a, spits out 130a at idle, and is brushless. Rated for 1 million miles of usage. I will warranty it for 3 years. It...
You're doing great. Mount the compressor, condenser, and evaporator. Connect all 3 with hoses. Goes from compressor outlet to condenser, then from condenser to evaporator, finally from evaporator back to compressor. There will he a small black can called an accumulator on either side of the...
Yep, that is with the doghouse removed. The doghouse is the actual cover over that area when normally assembled. I didn't know they made 2 different ones. That is good to know in case I ever put a real engine in my 925A2.
Yes, meaning it is not temperature compensated. The common old stock 60 amp military alternators are manually adjustable though. Don't go higher than 28.8v or you will be boiling acid. Go lower in hotter climates. Anything over 25.6v is charging. 26.8v is fine, it is working.
Wow, nice alternator! That's a 130 amp unit. Cute starter too. What's up with the winch cable? Drum only goes one way? This is why I want a control out front also, so it can be wound back up with a single operator.
That alternator has a temperature compensated voltage regulator inside of...
OK, I'll be non-sarcastic for once in my life. The doghouse of a truck is the front center floor area where it is raised up for transmission clearance.
Member Rustystud over in the M35a2 department has the win on this so far. His treasure trove is from floor to ceiling lights with all sorts of goodies. First thing I spotted was an old carburetor type automotive air filter housing, the classic type with a snorkle sticking out of the side of...
I am not an 800 expert, but it should if it work the same. On an M939, the PCB ha 2 solenoids in it. One is for dash power, and the other is for starter engagement power feed (so dash switch is low current). For the dash battery power solenoid in the PCB, you simply connect a large wire...
Unsure why, but nearly half of the folks that bought them so far have done the same exact thing. I probably need to either make them the size of a mattress, or charge $3000 for them. Either may help, case by case.
It can. I took an old PCB, removed the bottom connector, and jumpered the power solenoid wire on it. If mine ever goes to lunch unexpectedly, I can simply unplug my PCB and plug this jumpered connector in and everything will work. My gear reduction starter has a relay on it so it only needs...
You need to stand back further when you take pics so we can better assess the treasures in your garage. All I could get out of it was a Goodyear A2 and a headlight trim ring.
One of the hydraulic circuits are likely stuck on. Either partially or fully. Check each and every one of them individually. Maybe something like an outrigger, etc.... The only way to really heat fluid that hot is to be compressing it. I'd run each circuit to their half way point, and then...
