Some people sit around and knit................ Others sit around and...........

That is what I was worried about.... but with the 96 set up I do not see a place for it. Does it go on the passenger side head by the alternator? The AC bracket (drivers side) has a lift eyelet built in......I found a diagram that showed no spacers or other brackets, but a stud was used where I...

wholesalegmpartsonline has some great diagrams/parts breakdowns. Think I figured out my problem with the AC bracket. I was trying to use a bolt and it was supposed to be a stud.

I am running into similar problems trying to put together a 6.2 with a 1996 6.5 accessory setup. I think my problem though is forgetting/misplacing brackets and spacers since it was back in March when I pulled everything apart. Anyway if the main brackets are bolted straight to the heads, the...

Got one tranns cooler line hooked up and one fuel connection worked out, tonight. Moving like a sloth, but I'm movin........ I also tried to get the accessory brackets installed, but either I misplaced the bolts re-placed them with longer bolts or I am missing a spacer or another bracket cause...

I have a friend with a Dingo that got water in the hydraulic tank. It uses 15W40 oil. We changed the oil and fixed the seal where the water got in, but I was wondering how many times he should change it again to flush out the lines and pistons. It holds about ten gallons, so finding the balance...

What year 6.2 did you swap in? I just went off information, I did not try to fit the engine over the front diff. But my understanding was that the early 6.2's (which I have) had a different pan that would not fit. Do you have a turbo on it? If so what did you use for the exhaust?

Which oil port would you hook the turbo up to? There are the two oil cooler lines, then there is one hole that did not have anything in it when I got the engine (not sure what was hooked up there, if anything) then the plugged hole.

Here is a list of the gotchas that I have run into so far. When converting a 6.2 v belt to a serpentine belt, requires a different water pump and front cover as the water pumps have a different bolt pattern If you install the water pump before installing the HB make sure that you do not allow...

Got some more work done on this Saturday. I decided that it will be easier to swap the entire harness from the truck rather than patch the original gas harness. This will allow the computer to control the glow plugs, the low coolant light will work with no wire patching.... basically all of the...

Is it 4X4? I don't have much knowledge on the transmission, but I did have my transfer case shift fork wear out and allow it to slip out of gear and grind. There are some other folks around here that really know these transmissions............

AC systems have a high and a low pressure switch (two switches) Think one of them is on the dryer, the other is probably on the compressor. You could jumper both, but I would probably just put a volt meter on the wires going into the coil at the compressor and see if it has power.

This is where it is frustrating working in a maintenance shop. The owners say "WHY! did it take five hours to change out the thingamajig?.....There is only five bolts, I probably could have done it in five minutes." And you think..............."yea but it took me four hours and fifty six...

Thanks for the link. Yes I have a diesel parts truck, so I will be able to use the signal off the alternator, and the cluster.

Thinking about the electrical system. I am slowly trying to wrap my mind around which wires I need to keep and which ones I need to cut. My main question right now is a wire or two that runs from the ABS controller to the computer. I assume that the ABS needs a speed signal input, but since I...

Progress tonight was taking the grill and bumper off and getting ready to hook up all the coolers (trans, oil and power steering.) So far the trans cooler is going ok (have to bend the lines a little bit to fit around a 2" receiver the PO welded in the front) My oil cooler off the parts truck...

Well I hope you buy them cause if you don't I'll be tempted (I am in Greenville)

If the chain was still holding the two gears together in time you should be good to go.

how many are there? Are they in Charlotte NC? I am not that far away............please say they are on the other side of the universe....don't need to be tempted to by more stuff right now.

The Walbro is sitting on a plate bolted to the frame, and the filter base is also bolted to the frame. Should not be any weight hanging on the pipe. Leroy's filter setup has 3 mounting bolt holes in the filter base (I trimmed the top one off because of the tight fit) so the filter has two bolts...
