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...

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...

First Thank you doghead, i corrected the State issue and am sorry about the dual thread. Didnt know that moving it was a option or merging. Is changing the Thread name possible?? is so can you make it like "reviving the 86 ford with 5 ton drive line or something as such. As for jeeplvr247 don't...

86 Ford F350 W/LDS 465-2 and Allison TX200-6 Ok so to clarify this is not a hoax ill refer you to this thread (http://www.steelsoldiers.com/deuce-modification-hot-rodding/97972-465-ldt-auto-trans-t-case-what-worth.html) pages 3 and 5 for pics. Since the Drive line is a 5 ton setup out of a...

Ok the more I look into this the more I realize I can't afford to take care of this drive line, im tempted to traded it out for a Cummins 6BTA and a world series allison, I know it be some work but I would be able to afford the up keep and I'm very very familiar with them, anyone want to throw...

well i know the primary fuel filter that in you picture cranetruck is located on the frame rail for me. My G'pa put there for obvious reasons.

I have no idea, on one of the pics i did get a shot of the turbo if this helps, If you can tell where the data plate may be found id love it. but cant seem to find it myself, found tags for everything else tho

You maybe right the rear end says V170A on the tag which according to ford is out of a 85-86 ford F350 and is a 10.25 dia. ring gear with a 4.10 ratio. I think the title says 89 tho and again i might not remember it right, ill check the vin on the truck as well as the id plate and title, as you...

I know some of you all wanted to know what trans as u wanted a auto for your deuce. From what i found this is a 6 speed auto with lock up. They were in several different trucks, mainly the XM757. They where 8x8 so i imagine it had a T case on it or a divorced T case. Cranetruck could probably...
