i will be interested also.

you have two options on your tandem disconnect (if it can't be done at the transfer): use a splined collar on the shaft to the tandem axle. these can be found on OTR trucks (these are air-shifted?) take a divorced np205, flip it backwards, lock into 1:1. modify a shift cable to engage/disengage...

oh, also, i believe that the head is already studded. i would imagine that the stud size/material could be increased and clamping forces increased to hold the HG together longer, but i'm not sure that's been done yet.

welcome 'pilot. i think that the majority of the feedback you will get here is what you've already recieved - not much help in the modding deptartment, purist mentality. even though you are in the correct forum for this kind of discussion, you probably won't see that much support but, rather...

sides of the batteries (long) or ends of the batteries (short). i assume long sides....?

theoretically speaking, it would be impossible for the turbo to affect starting time so long as the turbo is functional.

i'd be interested in a set of 4 depending on final cost.

i, too, have noticed that the site runs pretty slow. haven't been on here regularly for a while until recently and have noticed the decrease in speed. this site is definitely a good bit slower than other forums that i frequent. i'm not sure i would say it's dial-up kinda slow and definitely...

check the attached. the "test" starts on page 12.

or you could use a pto that accepts a hydraulic pump.

go full-hydro steering w/ the PSC kit. then it'll be wicked simple to adapt the steering valve to the steering column that comes with the donor truck. done.

except for birds...

russ81(?) is also doing this.

thanks, CARNAC - i look forward to hearing what you find out as i will be in need of insurance soon. [thumbzup]

ok, but ask yourself - why would an ecu need to talk to a guage? that's the part that doesn't make sense... guages do not output.

i am still not understanding this - people are swapping common rail cummins into things everyday and not using the dodge cluster. spend some time on the diesel garage, specifically the conversion forums and the 3rd gen forums - these guys can answer any questions about swaps, because there are...

going to be calling them soon to find out about insurance. what exactly do you tell them the vehicle is? do you say M35?

russ - forgot to ask: you planning on doing a 12volt converstion at the time of the swap. i'm thinking that is the opportune time... :jumpin:

yeah, that's one of the options. just would have to figure out a mounting arrangemet. sometimes, that sounds easier than it actually is. but definitely an option. i agree, just that the 56' is out of production. it was available that year and is a plenty strong tranny. if i didn't already...

they'll "flash" the computer so it is no longer looking for input from the transmission or attempting to control it any more. flash = reprogram. there are other places that can reprogram your ecu besides painless. like i said, i don't think you'll need a painless harness, but you will need...
