The air intake is one of the biggest problems with turning up the 8.3. Saw a video on you tube about using a different air filter. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=c8TeD04Qdoc

Nice build keep the pic's coming.

I cut out the thick seat foam on the back of the seat and put in some thin foam. Make a huge difference.

My old deuce didn't have one either.

That's kind of what I thought it should get not towing anything.

Nice truck! What kind of mpg's does it get? Better than the 1.2 mpg I read about?

Mine had three return springs on the pedal. I removed two of them and now it's much better to drive. Also pop off the linkage to injection pump and make sure it's going full throttle. You may want to check to see if your truck is in 6x6. I've checked 7 trucks and 5 had air lines to transfer case...

Thanks for the pics

Looks great Kevin!

Nice write up. I know my M931a2 need a better air filter set up. I was thinking about adding another filter under the hood. I think I'll try this first.

If you do a crew cab with a m105 bed your drive shaft will be around 97-98" long. You have to do a two piece. http://www.steelsoldiers.com/showthread.php?68590-Seabee-Duece-Crew-Cab-Project

Just checked mine today and found it has been stuck in 6x6. It had full air pressure going to the front axle piston. I switched the lines at the valve that locks awd when in low range and now everything is good.

Great thread! I've been wanting to get my ctis working for awhile now. Anyone post their part numbers for seals and other parts in the ctis or start a ctis parts thread yet?

This has to be the best M146 of all time. Ray is out to make us all look bad!

Ranchhopper did that swap a few years age using a 5 ton 5spd. http://www.steelsoldiers.com/showthread.php?54211-Engine-and-trans-swap-done

We should add a swap thread to this. Ill have to see what I have around here to trade off.

Someone posted this in another thread. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=94-CdexJ3Xk

For now John and I used a piece of pipe through the rim to get leverage on it. It's a two man job for now. One to pry on it the other to put the pin in it. We talked about using a come-along hanging from the upper right lifting shackle to do it also.
