Bjorn, With all this wealth of knowledge on Biodeisel coming up here, it may be helpful to take a look at what the petro diesel contains. There is a website posted by Chevron that contains a wealth of info on Diesel and has a downloadable PDF copy of their 70 page booklet. It is one of the...

Man, he needs to sell the movie rights to that! That's John Wayne stuff if there ever was. And there's a man who desperately needs a presidental commendation!

Seafire, It's been a month since I last tried to reply. Maybe we're on the air now! I think the data you want is in the TM9-2815-210-34-2-1 and -2 manuals. Since I'm in Dallas, I'm curious about who has gaskets around here? Let me know if I can be of any help up this-a-way. I think you're...

Thanks guys, next time I'll buy the NAPA filters and get the copper gasket. I bought a sheet of .018 copper and cut out a gasket, 1.00 in. ID x 1.375 in. OD. Works fine!

Thanks DR and JimR, Gonna try the DIY approach. I put in Baldwin P20-HD filters and the top copper gasket was not included.

It's the simple things... This one is the oil filter gasket - The copper washer on top of the cannister under the thru-bolt. Leaks like a sieve and every attempt to clean and retighten just makes it worse. TM9-2815-210-34P shows it in Fig 17 as item 4 (part # 7748905 - part of kit # 5702659)...

There's a good exploded view(s) of the winch in chapter 16 of TM9-2320-361-34P. The tie rod and channels are supposed to hold the ends together until you remove them and the locknut. If y'all find a source of winch parts let me know. I tracked down Garwood winches to two sources, Sam Winer...

I had to go climb up in the cab and see! Yep there's a detent in the shift travel even though the dash shift plate only says "up/high - down/low". Idle curiosity - do they have a different dash plate for trucks equipped with xfer PTOs? Mine has a tranny PTO for the front winch. Unrelated -...

Now dadgumit you're gonna make me rollout the floor jack and see for myself! I always thought that when the xfer case was in 2H the front driveshaft was disengaged and if it turned at all it was from the drag of the left axle. I can see that disconnecting one axle wil get rid of "K-nuckle...

Interesting! My 1/2 ton 2001 Dodge 4x4 service says change the front diff lube. I guess that's because the left axle is one piece (no hubs) while the right is split with a disconnect. Seems wrong because the left axle is constantly engaged - kind of like driving the jeep with one hub locked -...

Ok 4x4Dave, I'll bite; what is lucas and where is Gilmore?

Peter Bog did an AutoCad redraw of the diagram that appears in the paper TM. He did a magnificent job and there was talk of posting it in another thread. You may want to do a search of the last few months and see if/where it was posted. I assume his intent was to distribute it freely so if...

Good advice - I got two on order. Better hurry, he's only got 90 left!

Ken, Tony Zapata in Gatesville will have one but you've got to take it off yourself.

According to tha magnificent wiring diagram Peter Bog did, the oil pressure gauge works the same way; i.e. the sending unit is grounded and the gauge is hot. In fact , all four gauges have a common 24 V feed point - something to remember when things don't work right! I can't speak to the...

Try $20 apiece from Leo Porter, Midway Supply Co., Irving (Dallas) Tx. Sometimes his son, James will ad them on ebay at $39.95/pair. I bought two, NIB. ( They're Wagner NOS)

Yeah, in a former life it was a four-banger but one trip over Engineer pass reduced it to a Briggs and Stratton so it got a heart transplant and a Warn overdrive ( to offset the 5:38 axles). Turns out the grille from a Jeep commando is the same as a CJ with ears welded on which can be knocked...

I once drove my '62 CJ5 from Dallas to Yakima, Wa. and back. But that was with a V6 and overdrive! And I was almost 30 years younger then! Long haul w/o radio and air cond. hurts now! But I hear what you're sayin' I guess if it hasn't blown up by now it's not likely to. So here's hoping...

Gee guys, what I'm hearing sounds like a religious experience! Maybe I'd better work on the mantra and fasten my seat belt! We've been bringing her back carefully - maybe too carefully! Ken, to answer your question, This is a LDT-465-1D that went thru Tooele in 8/90 and then parked at...

Been fooling with the deuce for a couple of months now - changing all the fluids, filters, etc. and she still smokes. It's kind of a blue haze all the time except deceleration which is clear. Quick acceleration, like a blip on the throttle, makes a huge cloud of grey/white smoke. I'm guessing...
