  1. With all-due-respect.. If you choose to do this job,, Please get the section of the book for this repair.. It is a good bit of work, and it would suck to get it all together, and have a bad seal in a new cup.. Good luck sir.. Jojo
  2. 22mm... or 7/8" some others are 24mm... You have to remove the rocker shaft to do this job.. It would be good to have the torque sequence.. it is 13 steps.. plus the other info, like injector pre-load adjustment.. Do you have the book, or at least that section of the book.. ? jojo
  3. Here is a useful page from my Svc. manual... notice the EUP numbers and the PIN numbers in the EECU plug.. There is a lot of info in this one picture..
  4. Hello, welcome aboard.. ( 8-? codes are the eup's) 8-1--- 8-6.. 8-5 is the #5 EUP..8-9 is a code related to all of the EUP's. check the wires that run behind them for cracks and exposed wires. DO NOT BUY A EUP AT THIS TIME !!!............. You can also check the J1 plug on the EECU for corrosion.
  5. TJC,,, Are you my Twin.. My little pocket gun is a .22Mag mini revolver with a folding stock.. my Couch gun, the M&P 9 has Trigicon night sights as well..
  6. I get it... I was grabbing at optomistic straws... anyway,, it's not hard to do.. Now I wish I wrote down all the part numbers when I did a B-model and 3 RW's.. a year and a half ago.. Many others here can probably tell you what you need better than me, at this point.. jojo
  7. If the budd hubs are close in year range they should.. I know you know, but when you strip them off slide one on the new spindle and torque it down.. I bet it fits... I have converted a handfull of them and have had ease in getting bearings and wheel seals.. I wouldnt be surprised if they are the same.. jojo
  8. I believe that is a 38,000# set up with the 8 hole axles.. You got a hell of a deal there.. there are sooo many useable parts.. awesome !!!
  9. Amen,,, I struggled with Ebonics, Now I have a new language to learn.... What is it called??? 'Hipster;?? I dont know.. jojo
  10. I too would love to have one too (45-70 Govt.) ,,and, an M-1 Garand... But my wallet is too thin, plus the ammo is probably upwards of $3/shot.. I know the ammo for my Lee Enfield is $2+ and hard to find where I am at.. I love my Enfield.. (303 Brittish) jojo
  11. Yes sir, Mark.. No F'n common sense anymore.. If the phone or computer doesnt fix it, their brains cant either.. So ... Bring on the older folks..!!.... I work with a 28 year old who is very inteligent, but seems to know everything about everything, then when you ask him what his approach is,,, he actually hadnt done it, he just read it on the web.. But He put's it out there like he has the skill's.. It's weird..
  12. I'm surprised I havent heard the Biden Klan, claim victory over the high fuel price problem they created..
  13. TJC,, I dont have near as much as you.. My total is around 4000.. I did score a small Stainless cabinet, but it is too small. I have 2 large 'Spam' can's of ammo.. one is 7.62x39 the other is 7.62x54r.. 440 rds./ per can.. I still have 4 more long guns with ammo in the house, in case I need to act quick in my neighborhood.. ie: .22 bolt action, .410 'Pardner break action, a Hi-Powered .177 Pellet rifle, and an AK 47 with 3 Banana Mags, an M&P 9mm, with 3 double stacked mag's, and a 'Judge' in my night stand.. oh yeah, and 3 dogs that announce your presence.. This is the other S.S. cabinet I have, yes it will be for ammo. As you can see it is not very big.. But it was free..
  14. Here in Central N.C. Diesel- $4.85,,,,, Gas-$2.99--- $3.05...
  15. Merry KwanzaHanaMas !!  Everyone...   🍻

  16. I dont think there is an age.. I think its more of the condition and mind strength of the person.. My father in law retired from operating a motor grader at 75.. He lived 10 more years.. However I currently work with a 70 year old man who is having some issues, he has crashed the city truck several times in the last few years, one was a total loss. the two, I witnessed, was ,, he smashed the driver side mirror, twice.. to me he is not old, but his mind and vision, is failing.. It is sad to see.. He is a good man.. but he is dangerous behind the wheel of an F-350 dually.. I have also worked with drivers that were well into their 70's and keeping a good pace.. Paul, Maybe the young'n needs you to make his lunch from a can of 'Whoop-ass', and see what and old Bloke can do.. I don't have a better answer than, It is about the person in question, not the age.. Jojo
  17. Welcome Mark, If you post some pics of yours we can point you in the right direction. Camel back bolster replacement is easy to understand, just laborious.. ATRO makes an excellent kit that is a lot cheaper and more complete than MACK's kit.. and is found at many truck part's stores. Jojo
  18. A smoker is an awesome idea... If I get another one, it's on..... It looks like this now.....
  19. On the B - Model there may be a seal in the center of the inside of the hub. I believe the back half is greased and the outer is in oil... The last one I worked on, I removed the inner seal and put a modern seal in the inside. So far after over a year, there's no leak.
  20. ok.. as long as a pro did it,, good deal..
  21. Happy Birthday to one of the Smartest people I Never Met...  🍻  Jojo

  22. Those are measured shims. the number on the side is the part group + the shim thickness in thousanth's of an inch.. Extremely important for proper bearing pre-load.. Which for re-used bearings is 2-5 lbft, and for new bearings, it is 3-6 lbft.. Did you replace the outer cam drum? jojo
  23. I know.. You are correct.. I think He needs to do a bit more.. Im all about the customer, for lack of a better word.. and would rather not have to be called on to fix it.. I appreciate your approach... All Good.. Jojo
  24. FJH... We need to help cut his cost and downtime, anyway WE can.. Go Team !!! I hope he doesn't have to take it to any shop, and he solves the issue himself.. one or more of us, will help him.. jojo
  25. Yes sir.. I worked for a lot of guys with small budgets.. I would take the time, or extra time on diag. To be sure I wasn't just tossing parts at it.. a lot of my approach had been more diag, and less parts changing.. There is where my idea about pulling the shift cover comes in.. and because you said coolant was coming out of the breather... Also,. When you have the cover off, and you flush it out with brakeclean or something, you can put a couple gallons of cheaper oil in it with a pint of ATF, drop the cover back on the keep the sliding clutches in neutral, and let it idle for five minutes to wash the water out of the bearings.. no need to rev it up or hear it up, it's just a rinse.. then drain that dirty oil out, and see if it's ready for a new dose of 50W synth. Oil.. Jojo
