Yea im thinking of selling it. Cant afford to do any real work to it. Dont want to let it just sit and rot away either tho. On the fence about what to do with it.

What would be a decent price for a complete LDS 465-2 and Allison TX200-6.

Yea below 20º it does not like to start. Ether helps

Ill look into it. Thanks fcdrifter13

Just a update. Between working on other peoples vehicles and work ive either had no time or no money to try to do anything too the beast. But on Monday I start the new job. Which means more money and free time. Ive found filters for everything but the transmission. Also found tail lights...

Speed changes heat. Heat changes pressure. Pressure changes tire behavior. Old Drag raceing metaphor. But Ive seen it on skidder and wheel loaders. Id try the higher pressure and see if that helps

Anyone know how much cooling is required for the multi fuels. Wondering if I could use a aluminum radiator shaped like the grill and electric fans. I don't have much room to work with. If I want to put the front end back to normal I got maybe 6 inches which don't leave me squat really.

Very little is the goal. I know these old engines are known for leaking. If thru aren't then there out of oil.

Someone's gotta have a link to it or can at least post 1 so that we can see it

Danger you hit it on the head. I want to get it running and in good operating condition with very little leaks or none. I'm going to see what I can do with the radiator. Might have to mount it in bed. I know theirs bolt on fenders to make the bed a true dually bed. Going to paint it after I get...

Gotcha. Sounds good. I'll have to wait still. Got to get money together. Hate having a nice toy and no money to play with it .

Not sure what blem batteries are. I know the battery tray had 24 series batteries in it which are only rated at 550 cca. I have to inlarge the battery tray to fit a normal size truck battery in there.

I am a grey shirt lol. I'll check around. I know we don't have any.we are a very high volume store. Ill put word out to other stores. That's awesome advice by the way. On a different note just got the call for better job. Looks like I'll have a interview in the next 2 weeks

I'll check into it. Id live to get then that cheap. Id like to get the agm style cause they are the resilient type of battery

That would be awesome. I've never driven it myself. Before I can do much more tho I need 2 batteries. Those are not cheap. I work at autozone and I can get the AGM batteries for about 125 a piece. Anyone know of awesome batteries for cheaper

As of right now I found Napa filters to use with the stock setup. Going to order a gallon jug of seafoam hopefully in the next week and use it to flush the fuel system. Next is the engine oil and filters. Main problem is money. With holidays and all money is tight. Hoping for new job with better...

Im new to Military trucks but very familiar with Large vehicles like the Cat articulated 740 dump trucks. They have about 6 foot tall tires. We had a huge rental fleet and one thing we had a small problem with (guess it depends on how you looked at be as its a 6 foot tall tire) with the tire...

Well they have no info on either trans. There worth less i guess. Dealer that is. Had a brain storm to day at lunch. If your valve body has a spool valve or clutch pack that the converter lock up and forward clutch share they could be bleeding over. trying to find the Tm for your trans now to...

My old Shop Foreman now runs the local Allison dealer. I have to call him Tomorrow about my trans. Id be willing to call for you as well. Just need what ever info you can give. Hes been great in the past about getting me pdfs of dealer only info. Hope he can do it again for these older...
