2014 BS and Chat Thread!

My crew cab is just sitting there begging for a Cummins. The only one of my 3 Ford's with a engine is the dump truck. Lol

[txs]

Would a turbo off a 97 or so p pump motor be too much for a 4bt? This 4bt has the same exhaust flange as first gen dodges and it looks like its gonna put the exhaust right into the firewall, the 2nd gen turbo outlet angles down.

[DMan1198]

It'll be a little laggy, but it should work just fine

[Tacoclaw]

Don't they use an HX35?

You'd be worse off than a 1stgen turbo, the HX's are 'gated so they stick out an inch farther. The piece oughta clamp right to a 1stgen turbo though, right?

[CumminsPower59]

I thought a fair share ran HX 30's, but I could be wrong....

[oldestof11]

4BT's had HX30's and later HE221 or HE211.

[PToombs]

Pete, I'm apparently not your FB friend,

I can fix that, but you might regret it!

[Tacoclaw]

My only regret so far in life is not knowing more of the day-to-day of Peter Toombs.

I can think of a few more things you should regret.

[DMan1198]

Well he doesn't seem to regret the big girls, so what else is left?

[DMan1198]

On another note I'm stumped and next to frustrated on the vibration jaeger developed around this time last year. Now I've eliminated it being the tires, the steady bearing and the front driveshaft, so it's either axle u-joints or wheel bearings

[MMeier]

Have to ask, WTF is a steady bearing ?

[Tacoclaw]

I assume he means the pillow block that supports the middle of a 2-piece driveshaft.

[DMan1198]

That's an affirmative on what Levi said

[matthewh]

Carrier bearing, at least that's what we always called it.

Anybody on here familiar with bobcat skid steers? I'm trying to either find, buy, or build a snow pusher box, and having issues identifying the quik attach? The dealer cant seem to tell me how far the "Bob-tach" style quik attach goes back, so I'm leery of buying a used pusher box, or attachments in general until I figure out what I have. For reference, its a late 70's/early 80's Bobcat 610
