Craig N Posted November 14, 2022 Author Share Posted November 14, 2022 3 hours ago, Freightrain said: The one thing you would have to do IF you swapped the whole drivetrain is hang the R clutch pedal in your cab. It's a cable pull clutch so it would not work with your existing pedal arrangement(push style). If you have the baby quad in your truck I would recommend swapping the drivetrain. I do fine with my Triplex but it is much stronger(though still limiting). What’s the baby quad? 5+4? I have a duplex in mine. Honestly, I wanted a triplex or quad, I really enjoyed shifting gears when I drove the old b81 my old boss had years ago. I mean, who doesn’t love shifting gears?! 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Craig N Posted November 14, 2022 Author Share Posted November 14, 2022 Got some stuff done today, but didn’t get the heads off. Can’t work on it tomorrow after work but hopefully can on Wednesday. Can see the mice made their way into the exhaust ports as well, little bastards. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Joey Mack Posted November 14, 2022 Share Posted November 14, 2022 (edited) Mice suck !!! down here we have dirt daubers that will build a nest in a bolt hole,, just imagine.. I litterally put plugs or tape over the ends of my hose rolls to keep them out,,, in a bigger hose, they will go up inside, out of sight and make nest, then when I cut a peice of hose to install it, and it doesnt let fluid through........ Damn dirt dauber's.. Thats why I cap them on the rack.. Edited February 28, 2023 by Joey Mack poor sperring.. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Joey Mack Posted November 15, 2022 Share Posted November 15, 2022 I bet you are glad you didnt try to roll this engine over??? It would never have fired, unless of course you love ether.. anyway.. I do like the idea of buying the 237 truck.. If it runs really good and you can drive it, just because.. you'll probably be just fine, then set tis engine aside and re-biuld it, or carefully take it apart and clean the parts by hand, and sell the parts to recover some dough... jojo Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It seems like a really good deal for a complete truck, even if just for the driveline. Best part is, it runs and has everything I need to make it work in mine. Just a pain in the ass to get it to me at 9 hours away. I’m gonna wait until I get the heads off this week and really get a good look at the inside before I make any decisions. Really hoping I can get this one going as it’ll be less work and money, but we’ll see I guess Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Craig N Posted November 15, 2022 Author Share Posted November 15, 2022 Anyone knowing if I can change this Luberfiner canister set up to a spin on? Just one line out the bottom, so no bypass I think? If I read it right, think I read you can’t do it because of the no bypass. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

theakerstwo Posted November 15, 2022 Share Posted November 15, 2022 I cant remember if it can or not.If that engine was the ENDT A or B or C it could be. 1 Quote glenn akers Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Craig N Posted November 15, 2022 Author Share Posted November 15, 2022 This one’s a non turbo. I can still get the canister for the luberfiner as far as I know, so I can just put it back on. I like the way that big ole can looks hanging off the side there anyhow 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
davehummell Posted November 15, 2022 Share Posted November 15, 2022 That is the filter off an earlier engine I did research a few years ago and the info I got was on my engine I had to keep that style filter. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Keeping the filter then I guess. Do you have a part number for the canister by any chance? Edited November 15, 2022 by Craig N Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You made a post in another forum about a quad from a gasser and putting a diesel in front of it. I thought that is what you had. My mistake. Quote Larry 1959 B61 Liv'n Large......................

mowerman Posted November 15, 2022 Share Posted November 15, 2022 From what I hear used to be able to buy a set up for the side of the engine illuminate labor finder but they are no longer available you might try calling watts… also Larry I think the cable clutch was in the later models my 66 does not have a cable my 87U model did Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The '70 I had used a hanging pedal and a cable. Lots of variations out there. 1 Quote "Eagles may soar, but weasels don't get sucked into jet engines."

mowerman Posted November 15, 2022 Share Posted November 15, 2022 Ok thanks for that … might be the deciding factor lol I’m sure that R model won’t last at that price … it’s too far away then you got all the labor pulling both drivelines then you know it’s not going to just bolt right up … Bob Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I’m really hoping the liners and pistons don’t look too bad when I get the heads off of my motor. Would be nice to just break it free and put it back together Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mrsmackpaul Posted November 15, 2022 Share Posted November 15, 2022 If you keep on just poking along like you are you might be surprised at just what can be achieved with out spending bugger all Nice and steady, you may get away with no sleeves or pistons or maybe you will need just one or two Paul 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
