Well after the rain stopped i went back to work this evening, got in about an hour ago, I have the radiator out, what a bear especially one man and manual tools(no air compressor). The radiator looks in rough shape, it has one row of fins falling out starting at the top and needs several areas...

Well today i started piece by piece disassembling stuff under the hood of the deuce, unfortunatly the rain stopped that for right now. I know its been a long time since i posted anything about working on my 2.5 ton, between 12hr shifts at work and farming that leaves little time for what i...

Well darn it all, the link wouldn't work so i could see the Cummins powered deuce... anyone have a link that works.. I did see the 2 new additions to the family though, very nice... The idea with the Cummins i like because when the dodge finally gets completely shot I will have a extra power...

Don't forget the first Aid Kit, the econo size one's :lol: As for the neighborhood rules, well im not going to even go there..... :eyes: I have lived in the country all my life and well there is no substitute, ask Cranetruck he has been in my neck of the woods, I would die without...

Great pictures!!! Looks like you guys had a blast with the convoy, I got to thinking you know in a time of need as many of us that have these vehicles that are in working/running condition(except mine for right now thats in the works) Our Gov't might need to look at the possibility of say hey...

I think that is what ken is talking about, and just lower the tranny from the 4x4 post which can be done with either a come-along or any type of hoist device im sure. Ken correct me if im wrong as im getting a mental picture of what your saying.. hehehe that right there may have very well...

Bjorn I have been following the biodiesel posts and your never short of amazement, sounds like your on to something big with the biodiesel, keep up the work. I may have to slip down there one weekend and check out your set up it sounds very interesting for sure. I would also be interested in...

and to take PB Blaster with you right :) of course there is nothing worse than getting caught in a rain storm... :freaked: as long as no lightening is involved [^]

Sour Goats milk, you sure i wasn't some of that KY mash that was brewing in the hull of the gama goat [^] and of course the sun beating down on ya that would help explain it to the little lady of course :smilewinkgrin:

Hey Opie, Thanks for the update on that, keep us informed, as im closer to Buchanan, and points west from here.

I read the posts above and well that is disheartning, sounds like their was a vulture lurking around waiting for a kill. I know i have pm'd Desert Rat about an item in general here a day or so ago, I think the Pm's are the best way to keep these items of interest amongst members only. I may not...

Thanks recovery, i appreciate the info, When you say power pak your refering to engine radiator and tranny i assume. Yeah this for sure will be a learning experience, actually thinking about it i may not have to mess with the pump if the one thats on the ldt engine is working, I still need to...

Well i started yesterday with swapping out the busted engine i have with the one i got from Bjorn, just minor stuff to get started on pulling the old engine out, front radiator grill, disconnected some of the intake pipes and next step to pull the Radiator out. Does anyone have the Tm's for...

Hey there Junkyard i appreciate the info about it, like i said the truck is pretty much shot except for engine and drivetrain and axles. I saw the powersteering unit, that thing is huge!. I agree that engine is probably a Gas hog for sure I thought the multifuel was big but thats one heck of a...

someone must have had more money than common sense, they would have been lucky to gotten me to bid 1500, much less 7500

Are any of you guys familiar with this truck, its a 5 ton with a gasser, now sure what engine though. I found the truck at a junk yard, the cab and window frames are shot but the engine still runs, the guy was told that the head gasket had blown but i checked the oil and its showing nothing but...

If im not mistaken all the multifuel diesel's have those, my ld-465-1c has them along with that huge hole in the block :cry: , but thats why i have another sitting to be worked on.

I think i may have found a M52, im not for sure, as im more familar with the 2.5 ton deuce. I know the truck runs but not how good and that the brakes are not working. A nearby junkyard has it, im going tomorrow to see if the guy will let me check it out, i will see if the dash ID's are still...

Check out CraneTrucks Rig. Bjorn has the super singles i have seen his truck personally and its a awesome ride. He can even tell you how to remove and replace for super single mode... :yeah:
