....on a caterpillar motor! My buddys Ford LT9000 tri-axel dump truck had the head crack and diesel fuel mixed with the antifreeze.
-Saturday after work i started helping at 1:30pm, straight till about 8:00pm.
-Sunday for a few hours because we needed to get some parts and the dealer was closed, so we just basically got the head torqued down (210lbs tq specs
)
-Monday i went over after work around 6 and worked till about 1:00 am when we got it running again
-Today, tossed the hood on, and did some odds and ends. (cleaned the dirt out of the blower motor, charged the A/C and such).
I drove it around a bit , fun as hell to drive it. Hardest part is downshifting into the right gears. 18 speed tranny (3 reverse gears, 15 foward, but the lowest 5 you wont use unless your in dirt or something).
On that note, I'm friggin' exhausted. If you wanna see pics they are
here. I just threw together a quick text page to link them since comcast wont allow ftp directory browsing.
Later

Btw, this is what it looks like all done and put back together
