    Dead battery meets rubber hammer

    If you can't fix it with a hammer, you have an electrical problem.

    Rear Main flange size for speedi sleeve?

    Amazon = $67.21 but they're temporarily out of stock. WBDS = $100.21 currently 2 in stock Those are the only other sources I could find. I'm going to watch the Amazon site to see if they restock. I won't be able to order it for another 2 weeks or so. The more I get into this truck, the more I...

    Yea, maybe you can hook me up with the source of that speedi-sleeve? :|

    Rear Main flange size for speedi sleeve?

    The dark line in the middle is where the ridge is. It looks like a groove, but I can swear it's lifted up from the rest of the shaft.

    Rear Main flange size for speedi sleeve?

    I personally can't, but I'll try and borrow a digi camera. I normally just use my cell phone camera, but I could make a better picture in crayola.

    Rear Main flange size for speedi sleeve?

    Should the entire shaft be smooth where the main seal sits? There shouldn't be a ridge anywhere on there right? I got my rear main and housing off today and there's a decent sized ridge on the crank. However, it feels raised and not worn INTO the crank. That's what has me wondering?

    Clutch Job!

    Well, to compound the swap, I think I need to speedi-sleeve the crank. There's a noticeable ridge on the crank where the rear main rides.

    If that bed could dump, it'd be perfect!

    Clutch Job!

    That's what I thought, but I didn't want to go prying on it if that wasn't the right way. I have it all unbolted, the actual removal had me held up. Well, now bad weather has me stalled. I have a good paved driveway, but nothing over top of the truck.

    5 ton Single Rims

    I'd be interested in a set of those.

    5 ton Single Rims

    In your situation, sounds like if you have the means, it'd be best to convert them. If you didn't already have the wheels, I'd say buying them would be best.

    Knob Creek Machine Gun Shoot - April 2009

    I ordered a new disk from OD Iron, along with my rear main seal. I was hoping I could get in there and just replace the disk. Everything else looks ok; pilot, throwout, seals, etc.

    Rear Main flange size for speedi sleeve?

    I would say you're right. That's a sizeable dimple and any kind of pressure at all would push oil past that. You just saved yourself $80!

    Knob Creek Machine Gun Shoot - April 2009

    I won't have my parts in time. I found a flywheel and pressure plate locally for $150, good take out parts. However, I won't be able to pick them up until Thursday. If, that's a big if, I can get it together Thursday night/Friday morning... then I'll take it to the shoot.

    Knob Creek Machine Gun Shoot - April 2009

    You're a week early! I would have met you there if you called. I was off work all day yesterday. I have a few rounds I want to put through my CZ pistol.

    5 ton Single Rims

    I think there was a thread on this exact topic about a week ago. In hindsight, I don't think it was a thread. Someone did post pictures of 5-ton wheels modified for the Deuce. I can't find it though.

    Rear Main flange size for speedi sleeve?

    I'll be sure to check the crank. Wouldn't have though about it if I wouldn't have read your thread. I may need a sleeve, seems like everything else on this truck needs replaced :|

    5 ton vs Deuce

    That's a good idea in theory, but I don't know how realistic it is. I'd like to get a 5t tractor, but the major thing holding me back is it's limited use.

    Flipping the dish

    Can you get a picture with the wheel/tire combo from the front of the truck. I wonder how much of the tire sticks out past the fender. Also, did you widen the wheels at all? Or is it just flipped centers?

    Rear Main flange size for speedi sleeve?

    I'll give you a call, but I have the one with 6 bolts in it and comes out as an assembly.
