  1. Forgive me if I didnt see this... But... did you adjust the pedal free play to near zero, to see if it will release when you you push the pedal? just to see if it will release.. Sorry bud... I bet all of us would like to be there to see it first hand..
  2. You are obviously a smart guy and know quite a bit about this job.. It seems to me you are scratching your head... Been there.... I Know!!
  3. If you have a harbor frieght near you, they have a decent tranny jack for around $300.00 USD.. I have one, and it works good for the price.. just be sure to secure the brackets and put a ratchet strap over the tranny and sinch it to the table on the jack.. (if you get one)...
  4. Mech... in the last picture you can see the edge of the 2 pc. clutch brake..
  5. I guess I am going back to my question about the 'dogs'.. they keep the intermediate pressure plate in position. You said the flywheel was machined but not completely due to the 'dogs' is what I understood.. so they cut the fly wheel with the 'dogs' in place? or with them out? I wish WE could be there to see this mess you have.. jojo
  6. That Black B Model dump truck looks like one of Danny Smith's truck's...
  7. Paul has a good point... I too, have had to pull a clutch for a customer who put the clutch in, but did not have the flywheel 'machined'... the flywheel will have deeper wear towards the middle and the outer circumference of the flywheel will be higher, which will grab the outer edge of the clutch disc.
  8. Because I made you think it..
  9. He went away with the Ace Helpful Hardware MAN.... I bet they are on an Island living it up.... Just a thought..
  10. so It was converted??? I did a flywheel conversion on a couple E-6 Super Dogs last year and the year before. Went to a 15 1/2'' easy pedal clutch on both..
  11. YEP!!!
  12. I assume the ''Dogs'' in the flywheel were positioned correctly, with the little tool that lines them up..
  13. I have worked on many trucks with messed up clutch adjustments and sloppy linkages and so on.. The ones that weren't totally broken, were still drivable, if only into the shop.. This is one, were, I wish I was there to see the issue happen.. With the info we have, I am leaning towards improper clutch parts and/or installation..
  14. im sorry about my slow understanding.. I think you say when its in gear and you start it, with clutch pedal pushed it is still in gear? sorry bud, but that sounds like the clutch discs are installed wrong.. Maybe mechohaulic will see this and bring the light..
  15. does it act 'a-fool' in neutral? Im a little bit lost.. if the clutch fork is pulling the throw out bearing, then you should be able to start the engine with ease... sorry Bud,, i'm not adding this up very well..
  16. Can you put it in Low gear and start it, then drive it to see if it will break free? You did say the clutch discs are in correctly.. can you get under there and look at the clutch fork movement with some one pushing/pumping the clutch? (engine Off)...
  17. well, at least with the 13 spd. you can get up to about 60+ MPH.. Is it a dump truck or roll off, ?? tractor??
  18. Sorry Bud... Thats all I got... if the engine would run above 1400,on up to gov. speed I would say install starter button until you find the issue.. I had a deleted MP-7 that gave trouble in many ways, and the ignition didnt start the truck. I put a starter button in it and it worked fine. It was a homemade dump truck that a crop farmer had.. his was a manual trans. though.. I wish I could help.. Jojo
  19. Pull fuse 71 out of the EPDM and see what happens.. that is the Allison fuse.. can you jump the little relay on the starter to turn it over?
  20. that is a great find.. thanks for sharing it.. jojo
  21. Happy Birthday !!!   

  22. if you unplug it,,, what happens?? also, have you checked the wires going into the cab for cracks and chaffing?
  23. Do the headlight wires run behind the oil filters? If so, check there, especially at the wire clamps bolted to the engine.
