P15-D24

I'm closing this thread because it is going no where.

Yeah, I added a few comments ?

Wow, hooking into the vehicle's system seems pretty sketchy. I've heard about this setup but never seen one in the wild.

Vintage Power Wagons should have the hardware. Yes you have to pull the axle, then the hub. 1 tons are full floater rear axles.

My .02 worth. With a flangette, bearing and dial indicator you can have a proper adjustment tool for less than $20.00. Plus it will be more accurate. If you want to go really cheap, skip the dial indicator and just use feeler gauges.

Really thin, not much more than a sheet of paper.

And

Where are you located? Maybe their is a member near you that can assist with the correct tool.

If your really stuck and none of the above work find you local "hole shooter". They use metal disintegration to burn it out. Your local machine shop will know who is the local guy.

It's not just a dog, it's a loved family member. Non dog owners don't get it, a dog's loyalty, friendship and love is unique to humans. I had to put Taco, our 15 year old Border Collie down in February, a year and half after losing our Aussie, Ruby. Good news is their is another friend waiting out their to join your life and family, you just have to find them. We first added Sunny, and six months ago, Roxie. It doesn't make the hurt go away, but it does help. Taco and Ruby, still missed... Our new family members, Sunny, after playing hard! (Cattle dog) Roxie, who is Sunny's new best friend. (Aussie and Queensland Heeler)

Skyviews are really cool.

Oh yeah, forgot to add it to my list. Picked up a couple from Mitchells years ago.

If you can't get the needed parts for the AC may want to look at up updating it with a kit from Classic Air.

On the 8 bolt I believe the hub has to be machined to accept a non FD pilot bushing. It's not just a swap.

These were typically used to power?

Might have some useful info, ymmv...

Sure it's not 952066 ? That would be the correct # for a P23/218 End plate is pressed on, it may have a key in it also.

Sure on those numbers ? Only one I'm finding is 85608. They do mention crossing to 8 bolt but it will require a different flywheel and a standard pilot busing will need to be fitted because that crank is set up for a Fluid Drive. FYI I have four 218 cores list in the store. If you get stuck I can check the forge numbers. Problem is i'm on the west coast and shipping will be high. Pretty sure they can go UPS or FedEx Ground however. Let me know

You need get a Hollanders exchange manual to see which cranks will work. Or post the forge numbers on the cranks and we can look them up.

FYI if you try to go to his website it looks like he either let his domain name expire or it't been hijacked. Either way DON'T click on update your Acrobat link when that page loads. It''s fake.

If you have one my favorite weapon of choice is a pneumatic air gun. Between the torque and vibration from the gun action they come off in seconds. Otherwise a 5 pounder is a good choice.

I read that as the shoes were still engaging the drum and if the drum was scored it would still hang on the shoe. If both adjusters are backed off and the shoes clear the drum it should pop right off. Otherwise instead of beating it to death, pull the anchor bolts and you can be sure the shoes aren't the issue.
