Hello

Posted

My name is Scott, I have a problem......

 

I am addicted to my 2 Cummins trucks....

 

I have a ‘71 F250 that I swapped a ‘94 Cummins and 47rh into and I love it. 

 

My bride has a ‘96 3500 47re that I have a love/hate relationship with. When the Diodes aren’t fried in the alternator and it shifts correctly I love it. I just finished deleting the CAD axle shaft and put locking hubs on it.

    Thank you Mike! Here’s my Fummins and another pic of both our rigs bringing wood in this fall.

    No. I do it all right on the engine. Way too many years of solder work. I've gotten good using just plain old propane torch and roll of solder. No vise. No heatsinks. Heat up, apply solder move on. @J

I like to use the brass tube lugs or the heavier duty lugs. When I shorten the lead to the alternator that’s what I’ll use. 

 

Mike, you make those high idle kits at the house? I need to come visit you, I bet you’re fun to BS with

I used MAP gas on the 2/0 and lugs. Heats up quick but it will melt the wire insulation if you are not careful.

    Not really. @Me78569 does my solder work. Then I've got a harness company in Caldwell, ID that builds the cables. I just assemble the parts in a bag. Pack a box and mail it.

    Well like most know. TTS (Tuesday, Thursday, and Saturday) I'm on the road. Like I'm on my weekend (Sunday and Monday).

    2/0, I couldn’t remember how to designate that correctly. 

    Mike, I tried to call you today. You must not have cell service where you’re at. 

     

    I hope you’re feeling better.

    Nope. Cell service was 20 miles ago. Landline works. Also the WiFi cell number works.
