    That truck will be working right around this new emission choked trucks broke done on the road with a sensor code, parts for it will be around for quite awhile, i would much rather have a truck around this era than anything new. terry just might have to do a searching for parts if something does happen

    That’s what i found out, seems like the gasket would let it work loose. terry definitely had to have everything real clean.

    There is a gasket, but i was resealing a axle on a weekend with no gasket, al;ways heard you never really needed one, so i put some sealer on axle flange and never used a gasket again. terry
  14. terry
    Thats fine, was just tossing that out there. terry

    I have always used some silicone sealer on axle flange with no gasket, never had a problem. terry

    Oh yeah knock it out, and go with a stemco or other newer inside seal , then lightly pack some grease on both bearings to lube them till the bearing cavity fills with gear oil, before i put outside bearing in, i would have some gear oil in a plastic squeeze bottle and squirt it in cavity and put outside bearing in. terry

    If your putting new seals on s cams, be sure to put the one towards the slack adjuster in backwards, so when greasing it will leak past that seal and not blow the brake shoe side seal. terry

    Isn't there a part number for the seal and wear ring kit? terry

    My first dump truck in “73” was a B 421 six cylinder gas with a baby quad, drove it for one year for another guy, bought it and drove it for another year, then bought a B61 , 711 with a turbo ,triplex trans, tractor, stretched it for a dump box and put p/s on it and drove it for ten years, then bought a DM487 had a scania with automatic, pulled all that out, then put a 237 with a quad, ran that for quite a few years, then got real ambitious and done a newer cab, 285 engine with a mack 12 speed, and a whole different cutoff 4:17’s with camel backs, i could bury that 80MPH speedometer, engine would turn 2300.

    Yeah sold my Harley a couple years ago because my balance got so bad, they took my prostate out in 2018, couple years later PSA started rising, said i had it in a few lymph nodes where they didn’t want to radiate, but the hormone therapy has kept it at bay. I might have went if wasn’t for all the side effects, hope you find something decent there for yourself. terry
  24. terry
    No, the hormone therapy for prostate cancer has me so weak can’t do nothing garage wise anymore !😩.
