New production HH from China do not include the plunger as far as I know. You are supposed to use your old one. While this does not seem to be ideal, I guess it works since they are selling the heads.

I am leery of pumping too much into these slip joints at one time. Not sure where it goes or how hard it is for it to squeeze out past the felt seal. Once the truck is moving and the driveline sliding in and out due to suspension articulation what you already put in should do the job. I suppose...

This is the other end of where the front driveshaft attaches to the front axle. It turns when you move the truck. The center pumpkins on these Rockwells are interchangeable. If you needed this pumpkin on the center axle it would have a drive shaft connected on both ends. Front and rear axles...

I do not see any PTO in these pictures.

Very happy to hear that you got your problem resolved. Thanks for posting the response.

Unless something managed to break off or otherwise damage the turbine blades on the exhaust side. I don't what else it could have been. The symptoms seem to indicate that the turbo is not really doing anything anymore. For that to be the case I would expect something is damaged on the exhaust...

Is it possible the turbine shaft broke in between the compressor and exhaust side?

I bought these IFM Efector sensors at a great price back during the plandemic when everything was impossible to get. Needed them at work and could not find them in the factory or anywhere. China had them listed on Ebay. Well the ones I got were fakes. Looked nice and had good labels. They even...

I have driven as far south as Madrid and spent a few days in Barcelona. I love the country it is a special place. I would consider living there perhaps in the future. The lifestyle seems to be very different but more relaxed. I appreciate the culture and the way that a feeling of national pride...

Looks like you are doing great work! Where in Spain are you located? In my travels there I have not seen any old USA military vehicles, but did spot some of of your indigenous equipment in convoy while driving between Bilbao and Logrono...

To be honest it looks almost as hard to work on in the Hummer than it must have been in the original car. Very cool idea and looks well done. Good luck it sounds to me like you thought this thru. Loved the simplistic explanations too gave me a good laugh that was sorely needed. I wrench on a...

Someone posted this elsewhere but it's worth a link again I think. Never would have thought this would work. https://www.locknstitch.com/

The dump truck?

I say it because have a similar problem with my deuce truck sits for a month and then shakes pretty good for the first 5 minutes or so once I hit 45 mph. After some driving it calms down until the next time out. Hot weather reduces this. Tires are not new but in good shape.

Tires would be my guess too.
