I've used these with good results, http://www.finditparts.com/products/418171/phillips-industries-12-1119
That is how I would have done it. I like how the acerts pull compared to the single turbo.
I know a guy that just did this conversion on his MXS. He replaced the turbos and acert stuff with a big Borgwarner unit, 6nz manifold, and backed...
It wouldn't be a bad idea to clean the vents on the drive axles. Ive seen new seals leak oil due to a clogged vent.
I want to say it was somewhere between $600-850 when the n-14 at work had rods and mains done. I'm not 100% sure but it was in that neighborhood....
I've had good luck twisting them off with a large set of slip joint pliers.
I know a guy that bought a truck from Ontario a few years ago. The dealer took care of the import and shipping part of the deal. All he had to do...
Texas has roads like that marked 75 now. In fact they are throwing up 75 signs on anything that isn't inside city limits.
Try what he said first. The 379 I drive can get into some pretty tight places pulling a spread axle and its a little longer than yours. Just don't...
How much weight do you gross? I would go with the 160 stat if you are working the truck to the max.
I will definitely do that next time I change out a gasket or turbo. I never thought about it warping for some reason. Thanks for the input guys!
They were oem. I leaned that the driver in this last truck liked to lug it. I'm going to assume that the heat got to it.
What causes the gasket between the turbo and manifold to blow out? Two trucks where I work have rolled back in like this, an N-14 celect+ and a...
Most places around here charge around $110/visit. My insurance will cover some of it, I forgot exactly how much.
There is another truck parked next to me with the same stuff which makes my long trailer look longer. It threw me for a loop too when I saw the...
You will be good as long as the starting system is in good shape and the engine has good compression. Our trucks start good down to around 10f if...
^ I have to agree about the 3.55's. They are good for 65-70 and aren't too wound out going faster. I also like how well they work in moderate off...
If you have good evidence, get the police involved then fire him.
Here's a bump to keep it going. My first long distance freight load and first tarped load, Plainview, TX-Chandler, AZ... [IMG] Pallets of bagged...
I use photobucket and then upload to what ever forum from there.
