Got some front bumper clevises from "91W350" to replace my missing ones.

Finished trans swap Sat. night, took the '70 on it's and my first trip of any length today, 30 miles round trip. Previously only drove my beaters around the yard and the 70 around town a little yesterday. You don't really realize how hot, slow, and loud they are until you drive one a bit. We...

Lately, it ain't, been busy.

ATF in the fuel should help I think. Adds lubrication and removes deposits. New diesel is probably too "dry". It's said such is the case for older 5.9 cummins engines...and these are much older.

It would be fine after the tire was pushed down off the lock ring.

Yes...I noticed and discussed it earlier in the thread.

Patience. Heat slightly. Soak it with Kroil, or acetone and trans fluid 50/50 mix for a few days. Put an allen insert in it and tap it lightly for a good long while. If you can get a 3/8" air or electric impact, turn the power way down and just let it tap away at it. A few cycles of...

I got tired of fooling with it and left it at 28.4

Mine came from a 900 so makes sense

Read that 12v batts get unhappy and hot and start gassing and losing live at about 14.6

I *think* 12v alts usually charge up to 14.4, and batts take up to 13.8...so yeah makes sense. Here's the pic from the 5 ton link I posted above. I'm going to bump mine up and do some more tests. (At batts, etc.) I wonder if putting out more voltage makes the alternator produce more heat and...

Aha! It figures that as soon as I give up searching and post a question, I find the answer. http://www.steelsoldiers.com/showthread.php?20172-Alternator-Problems-on-5-Ton

Just put a used alt off a 900 series truck on my deuce. I've searched for keywords and skim read through the Alternator TM 9-2920-225-34 twice, as well as searched the forum I can't find the exact procedure for on-the-truck voltage adjustment. Closest I could find was on the testing...

My pot is backwards...I turned it counterclockwise or out initially and got 30+v.

I read online that the voltage should be adjusted to 27.6v. I haven't found it in the TM yet. Can anyone confirm or deny?

Clinto, my '62 has a genny on its LDS, Delco reg on the firewall. A2 fenders. Believe it was an A1 originally. JS, cool truck. I might turn one of my extras into a semi original military looking tanker for watering the yard at the shop.
