This system was developed in 1937 by Alice Chalmers tractors on their WD Siri I adopted it to my 1970 R608 fire truck and have put about 10,000 miles on it cents all the pictures did not go through but I used a 80s Chevy power steering pump and mounted it on the right side of my engine which is a 707 gas engine had a dump bed on it and satin steel with 10 turn on it and turn it lock the lock idling with one finger it’s a straight through design if you lose your power steering belt or hose it still has the straight through manual steering Surplus said he has these to work in duction motors junkyards will have the Chevy power steering pumps hope this helps or somebody trying to make it a little easier to steer their old truck I’ve trusted my life with it for 21 years I’m still here I’ll try to upload more pictures in a few minutes

Did you sell the truck? And who to, if you can tell.

Anybody have much info on a 58B 405 pumper ?I think it had a Chrysler hemi engine in it any information would be appreciated is there any around thank you

My 1970 R608 with a 707 gas gets 3 miles to the gallon I would imagine that 1091 would get 3 gallons to the mile but I get 10,000 smiles to the miles myself

Awesome,congratulations thanks for sharing

Thanks

Thanks for letting us know

Anybody have any current update on the firetruck that was in somewhere in Oregon with the thousand some cubic inch hall Scott engine

Calvin little. Hummelstown , Harrisburg pa 717-566-8973

Does anybody have any info on a the 1958 b405 fire pumpers with the 354 Chrysler hemi engine, how many was made, how many is left, anything else?

Hi there’s a fella in Harrisburg it is FEASER machine shop number 717 236-9387 he rebuilt a 1970 707 gasoline engine for me did a fantastic job on it give them a call

Hi I have a 70 R608 with the 707C engine and it melted the pistons on me twice ,do yourself a favor and weld in a bung at the exhaust pipe ,couple inches from where the steel pipe connects to the manifold and monitor your pyrometer and see how hot your running ,mine at 1800 RPM would go up to 1300° pretty quick and melted the Pistons ,still haven’t found the exact reason why ,water temperature does not go up ,just exhaust temperature pretty expensive to replace the pistons in that girl ,good luck

Did you find one yet

Thanks buddy

Hi Calvin Little in Harrisburg pa 7175668973 Or John Chalmers chambersburg pa 7173348709 might have some what size engine do you have and where are you at? I have a B 58 405 with the 354 Chrysler hemi
