  1. A reman would sure fix the problem but its a problem in the rear box that can be repaired by only pulling rear box.
  2. I am going to say the twin turbo 64 came out in 1966.The Tulsa dealer here sold one in that year and I was told it was the first one sold west of the Miss river.
  3. How hot is it getting.
  4. As for as I can remember the 864 went from no turbo to a twin turbo.
  5. Forget the dampener cause you could remove it and at idle its not going to show you anything.Unless you have damaged the dampner its ok with no more mileage than you have on it.If the virbration started when the engine was changed then it could be in the clutch or flywheel.You can remove the pressure plate to flywheel bolts and slide the pressure plate back enough to clear the flywheel.start it and see if its still running rough at idle.And for as virbrating on a pull it could be drive line problems. If its air ride get the ride height set to what factory say and not by what looks good.This is very critical.Let me tell you this a virbration in most cases is very hard to find and as for as we being able to tell you what it is we can only guess.
  6. Does the 1939 harness use a terminateing 60 ohm resister at the end of the harness which on a freightliner will be located in the frame near the trans?
  7. I saw a injector line stopped up about two years ago.
  8. Check the rack to make sure it will move.If it is stuck you don't want it to start.
  9. What Allen just said.The 711 is high compression and head gasket was a problem with them any way.Plus there is not many parts around for them.
  10. Like he said u/joints or loose yoke nut.
  11. Take a big hand full of money with you to buy them with.
  12. I will ask another question and will it pull in 1,2,3 in hi range?And how about 5th gear?
  13. When a bridge pin breaks its in most cases were the bridge was incorrectly adjusted.With the later jakes I can not say what happens to break them.
  14. You will not know how much its going to cost till you open it up and find out what parts you need.Some times its cheaper to exchange for a factory rebuilt.
  15. I had a E6 doing that at one time until I changed the rockers from another engine.So to me that means the selnoilds was leaking thru when shut off.This engine would be idling fine and then start to lightly pop thru the exhaust also.
  16. We could all wish for the borders to be closed and we get a new president.Wouldnt that help.
  17. No the problem is that in 1 2 3 and 5 gears the power goes thru the counter shafts. In 4th gear the main box is in direct.In direct it pulls straight thru the main box.That tells you the input gear has ground the teeth off of it and not pulling thru the counter shaft gears.Most cases is the trans has run out of lub and burned the drive gear which is input and the front gears on the countershafts gears.Has nothen to do with rear box. To check after finding no lub in the trans you can pull the large pto cover off of bottom and see the counter shaft front gears.There will also be teeth laying in the bottom of the main box.
  18. I have a round Davis bed with hi lift and one thing I like about it is when hauling asphalt it is easy to lift the gate and then clean or inspect or just to spray oil into the bed when hauling that sticky stuff.I lift it and have a short latter with me and get in there with a shovel to clean out before loading asphalt.If I was to buy another one it would have a hi lift just for the ease of getting up in it.I don't like falling on the ground from climbing over as much as I did years back.
  19. Reason for the double spline axle shaft is when you haul over loaded the axle housing will flex.Or bend and this will keep the one piece axle leaking at the hub because it has to flex also.You cant understand this until you are around some heavy haulers and find that the axle gasket leaks often. with the double spling it does not have the load on the axle cap as much.I has seen the one piece axle taken out and the double axle and cap installed in its place.I am sure it had 5/8 studa with cones on them.
  20. What color and were are you at?
  21. Will 400 degress be too hot for the new seal?
  22. Sounds like it wanted a day off
  23. Just remember something that i found to be true 50 years ago.Two things in life people lie about more than any thing else is fuel mileage and their sex life.
