Ok thanks. Doesn't sound like as easy a swap as I thought it might be. A friend's dad has aulzheimer's and parkinson's at the same time and she is left to sell everything off. He doesn't have any mules but has these still in the crate, not sure if they are new or rebuilt but appear to be in new...
Approx. two months ago my headlights started flickering intermittently then they looked like they were on high beam all the time. Next came the intermittent glow of either and both alt. lights then on steady and the voltmeter is showing overcharging. I've been searching the forum and manuals...
You did a great job restoring it and I regret selling it all the time. I had wanted to get that yellow off of it so bad but didn't have the time or space to tackle it. That truck has plenty of power, a friend driving my duece towing another duece ahead of me while I drove the tractor and townig...
Thanks for your response. I seemed to remeber reading this somewhere but just couldn't seem to come up with the correct search to find it again. I started pulling my CTIS off yesterday so could put on my new tires and found that two of the valves were full of oil. I figured a seal had failed...
Has anyone experimented with reversing hubs on a 900A2 series truck? I don't think it will work but not sure. Would the older truck hubs interchange on the A2 axles?
No. I still started a swap on this yet. I kept weighing the cost and time needed to what I have and put the truck up for sale but no takers even though no one has even come to see it. If it doesn't sell I will eventually do the swap.
I like the look of the hubs flipped on your truck and have been thinking of trying it on my 925a2 but the hub is shaped different and not sure if it will work, anyone here tried it?
Thanks for all the response and explinations on how the Eaton works. I'm still wondering why the M52 will get up to speed so much faster, is it trans. or the mack engine? It just seems to keep the acceleration going right up to 50. Does the M813 with 14.00x20 tires move kinda sluggish like the...
I'm not familiar with an Eaton. Is that more of an over the road type trans or would it have that somewhat mechanical feel like the 5spd. when moving the stick?
I'm sure I don't use the truck to it's full potential and may never but I would like to keep from adding alot more weight to it. I don't have alot of experience with different engine/ trans combo but I would be happy with it if it ran like my M52a2. It has the Mack with a 5spd. and scoots...
I won an M925a2 a few months back and like the truck but not too happy with the Allison, I miss shifting. I have been playing with the idea of swapping the trans. out with a five speed from an M54 that I parted out. I'm not sure if the manual from the multi-fuel will hold up to the Cummins or...
