Rear drive shaft, you're probably going to have to run a bastard u-joint. I did this years back in a suburban I have. It's basically the same as the half ton yoke on the driveshaft then on the other two caps, larger/wider for the 3/4 ton yoke of the pinion. $20 fix really.

Yes I'm still looking to have it moved.

No, it's not against the rules. Just not encouraged.

It's hard to make out where the leak is at on the pump due to the glare in the pics. Is it the throttle shaft? Or is it the sender at the bottom? (That's only used for STE/ICE, you could plug it instead)

You typically don't get to "suspect" valve float. You realize it happened during the tear down. And yes, that's the same trick I used to do springs on 5.9's. I also did studs without replacing head gaskets. But that's a little more involved than just swaping bolts.

Not a lot of room in a diesel to install larger valves. And it's almost pointless in a forced induction engine. O-rings/Fire-ringing the head, yes that's worthwhile. Studs, even better. Wouldn't change the tappets unless I did a cam. Rockers are fine too. Pushrods would be a worthwhile...

Sorry, thanks for understanding. (And not cursing me out when you found out it was pruned like some members have in the past....)

Ahh that should have been pointed to the forum rules which state 30 days.

It's 30 days of inactivity in the classifieds.

Interesting. I wonder how well it'd perform in a two battery truck?

Which will only show up as a link unfortunately. Won't embed as an image.

Maybe this isn't the place for it, but has anyone ever modified a VRC antenna to work ham bands instead of the 30mhz and up they setup for? I've got a spare one here I thought about modifying and installing on the HMMWV or CUCV.

The lube order will have all the fluids you'll need. (Quick and dirty, coolant, 15w40, gear oil, DOT 5, grease gun) Tools, you should get a lug wrench, jacks, spare tube, electrical wire, volt meter, basic hand tool set. Set of belts. Air chuck/hose/glandhand setup. Spare bulbs. Chain...

The intake manifold and exhaust manifold should swap. Provided the 6.5 you have is not a HMMWV TD or Van TD. You said short block, so you've got a 6.5 that needs heads then right? If so, the 6.2 heads can bolt on the 6.5 block. But the lines are different for the injectors. Also you'll...

While the 8.3 is a lot like a 5.9 in design, they will not rev to what a 5.9 will. I'd recommend staying under 2800rpm. Bad things happen in a cummins 5.9/8.3 when overreved. Mainly the valves try to occupy the same space as the piston. Which is compounded by boost. I spun my 5.9 up to 4K...

As a reminder, please do not post auction links. As to the priming, that sounds like a air leak. Have you checked all the lines first? The M931 has a transfer valve that typically leak.

I kinda dig that.... Make me one on a A2 platform and I'll buy it.

About 300 miles.

Time isn't any concern. I'd like to have it hauled from Ferro's place in SC to me over in the west side of GA.

The TM's aren't that bad. You have to consider they were written for even a 18 year old to use. The thing is though, you have to start from the beginning. That's how they're structured. Skipping through them and you'll miss some information. Now, have I read every TM for my vehicles? No...
