Yep blast away just don't scratch the races on purpose, I just use brake clean on my bearings I used to have a bucket full of degreaser I dipped em in and use my fingers and a small brush to get em sparkly. After go go crazy on your hubs clean the races and inner area with brake clean and dry em out before you put it all back together.

Dynamat all the way my last Superliner had no interior insulation I pulled EVERYTHING out of the truck and put two layers of dynamat on the floor and firewall one layer everywhere else it was AWESOME! Cut the interior noise and heat down by half I could use my cell on speaker phone at 65mph after.

Well since I'm keeping the Superliner I figured I could keep on going, just got the rear top hats and a stainless rear light panel on. I got nothing left in the bank account now so maybe I'll do something else in a couple weeks (may be a chrome valve cover kit waiting close by).

An MP10 565c is 565hp not 605, wth?

Im in a union forced to do so by CSX to keep my job and as such my union doesnt give two shits about me, all they want is my $86/mo. I cant even get a copy of the contract we work under from my union I have to get it from another union and the local they dropped me in is in Selkirk NY, I live in Bell Buckle TN not gonna get to many meetings and I damn sure cant get any help from em I have never even met a union rep in 3 years. The union was all for King Nothing (O Bummer) pressured everyone to vote for him and they couldnt give me one damn reason why other than they wanted my money and they wanted to control my vote. I say unions arent worth a crap anymore, the country was built by union labor but now they just want a check like everybody else they dont care about the workers either.

Call a chrome shop supposedly trux will make one for whatever you want just don't hurt the grilledensor when you put it on.

Adding bigger injectors helps the fuel system run more efficiently, with a turned up pump and bigger injectors it will make more power and therefore you use less throttle, less throttle=less boost and that equals better fule mileage. I had one cranked way up in the past and I got better mpg when I got done because I wasnt holding the throttle down to maintain speed I could lug it around and it would pull the hills a gear higher and 300-500 rpm lower making better mileage and running cooler.

MP7 and an Allison that should make a great all around dump truck, and the MP7 should help your LW. Im looking forward to more info on how it runs as it breaks in with the SCR system, I dont know anyone running an SCR dump.

I have a closed end that has more angle on it than a std wrench and it fits, always thaught about making kindof a reverse distributor wrench that came out about 1.5 to 2" from the closed end then turned down a couple inches then back straight out kindof s shaped.

oh I thought you meant the one inside, I just use a wrench on that one with another on it for leverage.

Disclaimer-this answer may be offensive to some, if your on welfare or governent assistance cause your lazy look away now. Obummer or King Nothing as I refer to him didnt get elected because of that crap, he got elected because he said he would pass out more free shi* and extend unemployment and give everyone free healthcare, oh and he was calling himself black(which is B.S.). King Nothing does not give one little shi* about you, your needs or this country and the rest of those dip shi*s in washington are just as bad, if it doesnt keep them in power or make them money your pissing in the wind. I was actually driving a school bus when this maroon got elected and one of my 8th grade students said it best and I quote" Black folks aint gonna know how to act", she wasnt off by much but the key to the recent victories in Washington has been more free handouts to those that are too fkreaking lazy to get off their a$$ and go get a job and it inly hurts those of us that are willing to work for a living and try to achieve. I think the whole group needs to get kicked out on their a$$ and we need to start over with term limits on all positions and less govornment hand outs, ever hear of communism, marxism, guess what were there and going down fast, I work for a living but as we have proved here before over 50% of people inthis country DON'T! Heres one for ya, why in the hell do we need a social security office in Mexico? any answers? no? because they want to hand out that money to keep the votes coming in to keep them in office, if you dropped everyone on governemet assistance that could not prove without a reasonable doubt that they were unable to work you would drop the payouts by over half! ever wonder how Obummer won 126% of the vote in FL or 121% in OH? He cant if over 100% of voters turn out someone is breaking the law and it should be done again, oh and heres a shocker in states that required a photo ID to vote Romney won in states that did not Obummer won, make sense yet? OK I have to go take a prozac and drink a beer!

Um #3 please, I didnt know the other two were real trucks........

looks like aeroquip stuff there.

short well socket on a breaker bar.

One things for sure the chicks that get ink down their spine are hard core, they got to the shading on my arm down close to the wrist and IT HURT!

I've been doing brake jobs on trucks and buses since I was in my early teens and I've never seen shoes that didn't match id take em back. The red paint on the edge denotes the lining material they used to be 551,555,557 linings now they're red, blue, green, etc..

I buy them from snap on and proto industrial tools, I make larger ones for work by buying a 36" piece of brass round bar stock from fastenal and cutting it in half I have them from .25"x6" up to 1.5"x18". I use em a lot at work for driving pins and bushings in rr machines, the big ones have enough weight I can use them as a dead blow in tight areas too.

I'll try to see what we have on our boom trucks in the next few days. I know its all pto driven by a hydraulic motor, the ones we have tend to get awful warm but its mostly because they're not used properly. The magnets we have are a fairly low duty cycle, they're supposed to get the magnet over a pile of spikes or plates or a piece of rail, turn it on lift it to the truck and turn it off. I see them turn it on and sweep the ground as far as they can reach with it a lot and they end up frying wires or burning out the magnet.

1/2" brass punch and a 3lb hammer works great thru the front hole sit the punch on the inner race and knock the bearing out the bottom pushing the bearing with it. Just about 19years of changing wheel seals there oh and snap, cornwell and others make a race punch that works great too but I like using brass so I don't scar the bearing.

They're fresh that pic was taken right after they got done, that's what mine looked like for a few hours after too.

I think the flares on the end are crimped and silver soldered on the tubes, I've heard of heard of a die for a press to flare a line but never seen it. I was hanging out at Taylor diesel in Nashville today talking upgrade turbos for my E9 and we ended up talking injector lines for a while. I think I'm gonna get some bigger lines and injectors made up when we get the turbo sorted out. Anybody know a p/n for bad ass E9 injectors to save me some research?

An E7 mechanical with the pump turned up can be a beast, I had a 350 in a 97 RD triaxle with the pump up 10% and a 400 turbo that thing would out pull any other dump around short of a Freightshaker with a N14 500 that was cranked thru the roof. The E7 can be a ridiculously reliable with proper maintenance, if you keep the filters changed and the oil clean it'll go forever.

My old 93 CH is still working every day with an E7 400, steve bought a newer IH with a 500 Cummins ISX to replace it and now its in the shop but the ol dog is still running at 20yrs old and to my knowledge there has been 0 engine work on that truck.

Its not polite to brag! Lol, id love to find a W900 with a 3408 in decent shape but most of the old ones that are left are short hoods with a model Cats.

Then You guys probably won't like this one either .....
