I am back after a couple months "off" with vacations and traveling. I needed to take a breather from it all after this crazy trip. As of right now the truck is in the backyard with the driveshafts off once again. Kfrosty came with his 5 ton and pulled my truck home from Greensboro, many thanks...

Here's a quick picture of the truck from this morning.

thanks for the heads up. I'm heading into work trying to keep my mind clear knowing I have a lot of work ahead of me on the truck. I actually am from Dublin and went to elementary through high school there. I still make it back for an OSU game when I can. Thanks again.

Well here's a small update. I'm at home in Charlotte and the truck is at Parkers house in Greensboro. I called a local diesel mechanic in Raleigh named Rob who drove out to me on the highway and took the part to two local cat dealers and got the replacement. We installed it and filled it with...

Trying to stay positive.

Working on getting the part from a local cat dealer. Thanks for the idea has my backup plan is to make one.

Goes from the head to the pump

Here's the problem.

Maybe I can just keep adding oil? How low is the oil for the light to come on and the pressure to drop? also can a mod change the title, I'm on the side of the highway.

I'm stuck again and it's bad this time. I kept my eye on the pressure and it dropped and the light came on so I pulled over. I will need help. I'm located on HWY 40, just before Raleigh.

As far as repair what am I looking at?

No worries bikeman I think I found the source. Appreciate it though!

I believe I found the source. Looks like a cracked cover. May have to zoom in. It's a small leak.

Mod can change the title. I'm going to baby it and check the levels down the road. I had a towel and wiped everything down so the leak should be more visible.

It's a mess alright. Went everywhere. oil level is good, trans level is a little low.

I cannot find the source. Trans is still running oil so that's an option. When driving oil pressure was good. oil level is ok.

Got the cab lifted with a guy who gave me a piece of rebar.

I'm on my way to get a trailer and I pulled over for fuel and I notice oil covers the bottom like it's been dropping for a couple miles. I don't want to start the engine to lift the cab and I am without tools. Anyone close? 980-229-5790
