A friend of mine put a 6 cyl perkins out of a combine ina chevy 1 ton service truck he had. It would haul a heck of a load. He had to browny for an overdrive so it would make high way speeds. It made good milage to for all the wieght it was hauling.
If the coil has an internal resister and you put 12 v into the coil will the voltage on the negitive side of the coil be 6 volt?? Just a thought that accurded to me.
it looks like you just lube up under the rubber and give it a solid pull.I got my rubber to move back and forth alittle bit without any lube so it should come off with a little cussin and pullin. I'll let you know in the morning.
I have the cover off the inside of the door. It looks like there is a rubber( hard plastic) bumper on the end of the flat door stopper rod. Can it be taken off? I have seen them door stops with cotter pins in them instead of a rivet. thanks Hank
A b1c have the same wheel pattern as a early 80's chevy 5 hole 1/2 ton pickup. Replace your whole rrend with the chevy. Put in a T-5 chevy 5 speed tranny and use the chevy driveline. U mite save some moneys. I ended up spending 200-250$ on a driveline with that special flange that fits the dodge 4 speed. You have to rig a slip joint in your driveline also. With the flange you will use a small GM u joint.
One of my old trucks I tryed to put a newer dual M/C in without any valves. I piped the outlets together then to the wheel cylinders and couldn't get the M/C to work. I finally went back to the original equipment and to works now. Maybe if I had ran it through a porpotioning valve it would have worked?
How do you remove the little door stopper .The part that keeps your door from opening to far? It looks like there is a small rivet holding one end. Do you drill the rivet and replace it later??
I think I must have a syncro ed 4 speed. It shifts to easy to be a non. I haven't really got this old truck out on the road and ran it hard yet. I think I'll change the oil in the tranny and give it a go before I tear any thing apart. What do you think 80/90 or 85/140 gear oil for the tranny?? thanks everyone.
I have a b-3-c and I was wondering how hard it is to rebuild a 4 speed tranny? How much for a bearing kit? Is that tranny winey
sound usually worn bearing or? Any where do they sale kits? Just looking at opions . thanks everyone.
i seen a pierce arrow bus kinda like that. It had doors down both sides and was about a ton and a half truck frame. It was down on route 66 in new mexico in a farmers lot.
The base plate gasket on your carb has 4 unward looking grooves that let a little vacum port on the bottom of your carb suck air. If the wrong gasket was installed your engine mite run ruff. Just an idea.
