    1 piece wheels

    I was speaking with my neighbor and he recently bought a 79 F600 dump truck with the same bolt pattern as the eaton and rockwell axles. The PO bought new 22.5 wheels for it so he could run tubeless radials. Not sure where he got the wheels from, but you can probably get plain steel wheels from...

    6 lug to 10 lug

    Are you looking to run 22.5 tires, or just wanting to run nice, shiny, aluminum Alcoa wheels on your deuce?

    New problem: I need a pig!

    Well, I haven't torn into it too much, but it appears that the pinion gears on the pinion shaft ground off, but it didn't break.

    1 piece wheels

    Well, aside from the safety factor, I was also wanting to run as tall a tire as possible, maybe a 14-20, or at least a 12-20, and wasn't totally sure that they would actually fit on the factory deuce wheels. Here's food for thought...think I can make a wider 1 piece wheel from 2 2-piece...

    New problem: I need a pig!

    Went to back out of the shop to take the M173 on it's maiden voyage over to the neighbor's house to de-dual the rear axles. Had a tough time backing out of the shop. I saw that both rear driveshafts were turning, but only the left-rear-rear tires were turning. I thought I might have a broken...

    De-dualling an M211?

    That's it then. I'll snap a pic of the truck before and after I turn my truck into an M173.

    De-dualling an M211?

    Does anyone see a problem with removing the inside dual tires on the rear axles of an M211? From what I can see, the outside duals track wider than the front wheels, which shouldn't pose a problem. I've got a couple flats on the back right now and can't afford new wheels and tires, and want to...

    1 piece wheels

    Alright, here's my question. I have my old deuce, '52 M211. Nearly all the tires are shot, so new ones are in the works. I don't wanna have to pay out the nose for a big-tire company put new tires on the old 2-piece wheels, so I was wondering where I might be able to source some 1-piece...

    1 piece wheels

    Alright, here's my question. I have my old deuce, '52 M211. I'm posting here because the bolt pattern is the same. Nearly all the tires are shot, so new ones are in the works. I don't wanna have to pay out the nose for a big-tire company put new tires on the old 2-piece wheels, so I was...

    Air brake questions

    No problem. A lot of stuff interchanges. What PSI does the M35 trip at? I could always just hunt one of those down.

    Whose truck is this - need tire info

    It's ain't mine, but they appear to be abot 37" SS Irok's. Be ready to pay out the wazoo for 'em. I'd just go with a set of standard Super Swamper 37's, if you were gonna ask me.

    Diesel fuel pump vs gas fuel pump

    Go to summitracing . com and get a fuel pressure regulator. You jimmy-6 should only need 3-5 psi of fuel pressure to run properly. Any more than that, and you'll have the same problem I did; gas in crankcase. The one I have just has hose fittings on two outputs, and a plug on another. A fuel...

    Help identify noise

    Could it possibly be an injector? I know on other diesels whgen an injector is getting ready to go, it can start making some funky noises. You might want to try the ol' yardstick test. Fire it up, and put one end of the yardstick on the injector or line close to the injector, and the other...

    Air brake questions

    Alright, just got in from the shop, and have made a couple corrections. *Low air buzzer is shot *Pressure relief on firewall is non-functional *Electrical connection on top of distribution block was the secondary air loss, next to the buzzer I bought a pressure gauge (like you'd see on an air...

    Gas in crankcase?!

    RE: Engine oil Yea, I decided that I'm gonna change out the 30 wt for some Dexron III. I'll make sure to drain the torque converton, also.

    Air brake questions

    Alright, here we go. I KNOW all the questions I have can be answered by a TM, but I'm waiting for one to come in the mail, so here goes. Got the new belt on, and it's pressurizing the system. I know this because I can hear a hissing and a "noise" coming from under the dash. Also, drained the...

    Gas in crankcase?!

    RE: Engine oil Well, got it all figured out. First, measured the psi of my pump; it ran 5 psi, so I first tuned it down to 3, but I guess that wasn't enough to keep the bowl full, so I set it at 4 and that seemed to work just fine. Ran it thru a switch off the battery, so now, I've got an...
