As my oil cooler started to leak coolant, I was in need to find the correct gaskets and packing o-rings. After consuting with a local heavy diesel shop that knows their stuff, they cross-referenced our LDT-465 engine to a Hercules D4800T (T for turbo). At $2.90 for each gasket (oil cooler to...
So I had the deuce out and it started leaking coolant from the bottom of the oil cooler. Right now its just dripping, but leaking enough to cause concern. I've been looking at all of the surplus parts website, I cannot find the packing 0-rings. From my searches, TNJ Murray sells the two...

It was that time of the year to repack bearings and change a few leaky wheel seals. We completed all of that, our next step was to tighten the axle nut to set the wheel bearings into the races. The TM says to "tighten the nut until the wheel binds, then back off 1/8th of a turn". I had the nut...
