    Anyone here have a lathe?

    Haven't forgotten about the york! Just been busy! I was wondering if anyone could turn out a quick steel slug for me though. Only needs to be 3/8" thick and must be exactly 1.257" in diameter.

    Anyone here have a lathe?

    Haha, no problem fabricating what I need. I can do it all, already shoehorned in the 6.2L Diesel, 700r4, Np231, shortened the Np231 rear output myself, made a custom oil seal housing, moved the factory sprag transfer back 5". Still left to do is fab up alternator bracket, York bracket, custom...

    Anyone here have a lathe?

    You are spot on 135gmc, they make them custom for Oasis Mfg, so it's on an as needed basis which keeps the cost high. I spoke with an engineer at Oasis Mfg today and was told the pistons are the same. The only difference for the "special" ones being that York machines the top compression ring...

    Anyone here have a lathe?

    Original deuce compressor has pitted cylinders and needs bearings, plus a new flywheel with a smaller belt groove. Replacements are $275 with postage. I thought a York would work well because they are lightweight, cheap and bullet proof. I've contacted Oasis air again to request additional...

    Anyone here have a lathe?

    These are AC compressors where the system is normally recirculatory so blowby is not a problem. TO get around this, all the guys using them as on board air units are using coalescing filers to capture the oil, venting the crankcase to reduce pressure, plugging oil galley's, etc. None of it has...

    Anyone here have a lathe?

    Let me go pickup the socket I need today to get the rods out of the York 210 crankcase. Then I can mark them for orientation, remove the pistons, rings and take some measurements. You would be duplicating the existing ring groove. There's another guy I found on Youtube who said he'll do it for...

    Anyone here have a lathe?

    I am looking for a guy with a lathe who can machine extra piston ring grooves on my York 210 compressor piston's. I would supply the ring's of course. This is for my M211 project. Pistons are around 2" in diameter and are aluminum. Course I never thought to check how much my local NAPA would...
