    Winch Operation

    winching is at best a very dangerous operation and should involve at least 2 people. NEVER EVERuse the wince in - out lever to stop the winch, it probably won't and then you will need a new radiator or worse. you always want a operator in the cab to control the cable and someone on the ground to...

    LDT question

    RE: Re: RE: LDT question right kenny, the multi is a direct injection engine and these do not use glow plugs. engines with glow plugs have prechambers that the glow plug and injector are in and are usually more noisey engines having fuel knock.

    Multifuel timing?

    basics are remove the little cover with 4 little bolts on top of the advancer housing. with the fuel shutoff pulled out rotate engine until pointer lines up with line exactly. now read timing on engine front balancer. you should turn engine in the direction it runs and just creep up on the line...

    How much does this weigh?

    not that much missing really. kennys estimate is close, but start with 14,000 and subtract. bed 2000 engine 1400 trans is 220 by the way. looks like most of the rest is there so easily 8,000 that frame is heavier than you think. i moved just frame and 3 axles on a std rollback and it was way...

    if you have hyd power steering read this

    well, all i can tell you is that i was parked on level paved surface with magnetic gauge and that is what i got. i had put in 3 deg shims and did not notice the taper of the spring mount and they made almost no difference. now it reads 3 1/2+ deg and steering almost returns to straight when driving.

    so it must be 2 deg , gerhard?? flipping the upper shim has nothing to do with the lower spring plate.

    overdrive gears available soon

    yes actual speed although my speedo does show just a very little slow by gps. yes these trans do break, second gear seizing and 1st / rev gear chipping and the pieces getting in other gears or bearings. i think i have solved the one..... i plan to load the truck this week and do some more testing.

    LDT465 Injectors

    i have tested both 1 hole and 2 hole injectors and there is an obvious difference in the atomization of fuel. i would never use the 1 hole injectors. also there is a real difference between new injectors and used, and at some point even though the engine seems to run ok, there is a benefit in...

    if you have hyd power steering read this

    this was measured using a snap-on magnetic caster/camber gauge. it went from -3/4 to +3 1/2, which if they are 4 deg i guess would make sense. (i just retorqued the u bolts)

    Air hose part number

    that is the air pressure switch. sometimes the little screw inside comes loose. if that is it just take it apart and tighten screw and the leak will stop.

    overdrive gears available soon

    some people just don't understand, it's not about fixing something. just put in the production mainshaft with needle brngs. these 2 pics should say it all. this is still the .71 gear set.

    Injector pump

    pump = $250, truck = $300 ??? still, if you don't have a egt gauge leave it alone. it is easy to need a new engine.

    if you have hyd power steering read this

    spring to axle mount in the reversed position. the left side is the rear.

    if you have hyd power steering read this

    gerhard, my truck is built entirely from parts. the springs are from a winch truck, the axles are from norway, the frame was from another truck etc. i tried just adding shims before i realized that there was an angle built into the 'seat, lower leg, part number 7521824' as the -34P calles it...

    Upgrading to radials

    i don't think everyone understands that when you flip the rear hubs, the flange the wheel mounts on becomes the same track width as the front already is. so it does not matter which rear wheel you use as long as you bolt them on facing the same as the front. of course if you want to use wider...
