    Pros and Cons of a m923 to a m923A2

    That sounds pretty good. I dont really care to turn it up but just to know that it can be turned up a little is nice to know. I guess I will have to see what I can get the best price on.

    Pros and Cons of a m923 to a m923A2

    BKubu, is the low end torque difference that noticeable? If so, do you think that if i was to turn the pump up some what on the A2's engine that the turbo would spool a little faster and it would make up for the lack of low end torque? also if the A2's low end torque is less than an A0 ro A1, I...

    couple of questions on the 5 tons

    My next question would be, If the truck is doing 55mph with the 1100r20's comfortably, meaning not reved out, what will the truck do with 1400r20's not reved out and what would it do with 395's not reved out? Also if you have 395's on it, is the truck constantly changing gears when going over...

    couple of questions on the 5 tons

    I thougt those super singles where 395 85 20 or 385 95 20's? so are they actually 1400r20's instead? I am not like most people, I dont want the biggest tire I can fit on the truck but I would like some bigger tires than the stock 1100r20's that come on some of them. Oh and thanks for the info on...

    I am having to remove the pulley and harmonic balancer to change the main front seal and I have already tried a puller and that just broke the pulley in the back so I have now ordered one from boyce equipment but still need to get the one off so I can change the seal. Thanks for any help Michael

    Started working on the deuce today

    Yes it was leaking real bad. but it would only leak at 1800-2000 rpms. at idle it wouldnt leak but at higher rpms it would leak bad. you could sit and watch it drip. I got the seal from boyce equipment and it was 22.00 bucks.

    engine running hot what should I check first

    Well the good news is that I finally got the batt charged up to par and when I began to drive it to get it to heat up again I drove it faster than the last time. About 45 to 50 mph for about 10-12 miles. When I got to my house I parked it and it never got over 180-190 on the temp so Im thinking...

    engine running hot what should I check first

    That sounds like a good Idea. It was not boiling over or steaming or anything like that. I will check the sending unit and the gauge 1st and just see. And then work my way to more expensive parts.

    engine running hot what should I check first

    I drove my deuce down the road the other day and realized the temp gauge was slowly climbing and eventually pegged out. It took it about 10 miles to do so. I stopped and checked and nothing was leaking and the coolant was full and clean not all nasty looking. I was just wondering where to start...
