    Left is oil,both lines go into left side of block.The big filter on the right,inlet hose comes from the oil cooler,the top of the rubber gasket that seals w/ the lid is flat.

    So Luber750 on the right,and Luberfiner 500 on the left?

    The line from the big one on the right goes to the oil cooler,there is no power steering...engine is 673 w/turbo.

    Hi,can anyone identify these? I think the big boy on the right is a Luberfiner 750,no idea about the smaller one on the left. And the small one in the middle is a gas filter that you rotate the top to scrape the crud off the wall of the can?Also,someone added what looks like black silicone seal to the cap of the big filter even tho the flat rubber gasket looks to be good.Is this common practice for added leak stopping?Btw,I took the clamp off the lid,it isn`t missing.Thanks in advance.

    You`re one heck of a go-getter.

    Do you have guys working with you?

    My truck is hibernating til spring,but I`m anxious to get behind the wheel again and improve my shifting.There were times last summer when I needed to blip the pedal to downshift when I was braking.I know heel and toe technique is a staple in sports cars...do any of you experts ever find the need to do that? Or even use the left foot for braking?

    The front bumper(extended) on my truck isn`t level.There`s no sign of anything being bent or damaged.Is there a provision for adjustment,or is something else the cause,eg,frame tweak or suspension? Thanks.

    Is that a generator behind the cab? Looks like a nice truck for $18k.

    Pics would be a big help.

    Put a test light between the battery and cable and start pulling fuses.

    $1000 for studs???? I`m in the wrong hobby.

    Are any kits or parts available for an in-frame rebuild?

    Looks alot like the windshield on my `35 Ford coupe,which cranks out for ventilation,lol.

    Thanks to all for the tips.I`ll make sure to have the aux in low before I get to the corner...haven`t been doing that.

    I`ve gotten better at shifting my B61`s triplex,with one exception.When I need to turn a corner in town,I`ve slowed to walking speed,clutch depressed,main box in neutral.From there I can`t get it back into any gear,2`nd or 3`rd,clutch or no clutch,revs rising or falling,no luck,have to come to a complete stop.On the highway,no problem shifting up or down,no clutch.What am I doing wrong? Thanks.

    My truck is a `61,so maybe no thermostat,like Harry`s...I`ll check and see.

    The temp gauge in my 673 ENDT is at 140 deg after 20 min on the road,in 85 deg weather,shutters still closed.The shutters seem to work,open when sitting cold,then close when air builds,but don`t open after that.I figured my temp gauge must be off,that I must be fully warmed up after 20 min.If the gauge is wrong and the temp is more like 170,then maybe the shutter stat is bad?

    I ordered a gallon of Sta-Lube 140 wt. gear oil. It`s not mineral oil but that shouldn`t be an issue.
