  1. Im not sure what 'pins' you describe. The tapered king pin set up is excelent. Did you seat the king pin up into axle beam with a sledge and a jack on the bottom of the pin ? You also need to pre lube the thrust bearing and you use the lower nut to set the bearing. The front ends weight is on the thrust bearing.
  2. Oh Hell... i wish i had posted the engine kit numbers for you months ago...
  3. Yes the nylon is a drift for the seal and goes in your toolbox for next time..
  4. I see the wear ring is in its own bag. Thats a first for me. Im sorry, but I have to ask.... isnt there 2 rear seal part numbers? One for the seal alone, and a different seal for use of the wear ring? I know you have been working hard on this and have gotten info from many directions, and a parts counter that doesnt know what you have, I recall 2 different seals due to the thickness of the wear ring. Trying to not be a pest here... Jojo
  5. Good points at the end. Too bad you cant buy a new input shaft.... feeling safe is tops..
  6. Ok. So you did strip the input shaft cover inside an out. Too bad it wont hold. Im curious about your idea to weld it and turn it back down. Good luck....
  7. Interesting... I never saw the adjustment gap related to the pressure plate, only between the throwout bearing and the clutch brake.... Well... I just learned something.
  8. 🤔... ok. Well now im curious fjh... interesting ...
  9. But what would stop the trans from spinning so he can go from nuetral to 'in gear' when stopped, without grinding ?
  10. The clutch brake would make up the excess gap... at least he can add a 2 peice clutch brake and get it dialed in. And stop the grinding to get it in gear.
  11. Well...... I myself have never adjusted that style clutch... Proud to see Made in U.S.A...
  12. ok. I know from experience that you can get those 2 and the EGR plugs mixed up. It boggles my mind as to why they would make those plugs the same.. I bet you got pretty good at removing the interior panels to get the doghouse out.
  13. did you swap the cam and crank plugs? they may be backwards.
  14. I still havent seen where he removed the whole seal assemblies. The inner and outer seal with the snap rings that at the flat spring steel type that you remove with a pocket screwdriver. the top dirt seal is not for high pressure. Unless I missed something in the story. If so.. forgive me.
