sounds like throwout bearing. drop tranny :*(

new clutch and bearing, trans fluid change while your at it.

Clutch/bearing reccomendations? This truck supposeddly has a Southbend clutch, do I need to go aftermarket like that or will something quality and stock from Arie be OK? I have never done a clutch before.

[mr.mindless]

if it has a southbend, they'll probably rebuild it for reasonable money. A local clutch guy probably can too. is this your DD?

[M4wdFab]

i am pleased with the OE luke? i got from Arie


i didnt regrind the flywheel, just put it in.

[Harrison]

This is not DD, nor is my Jeep. This is also not something I plan to be making mounds of power with. I'd like to be able to do 70 up hills with ease, aside from that I want as good economy as possible. In other words, I wonder if a good stock clutch would be fine for that kind of power.

Are you talking about them just rebuilding the bearing, leaving the clutch?

[mr.mindless]

the bearings (actually probably throwout bearing and crank bushing) are just an R&R. If you're going to take it out, I'd probably do the clutch if it's anywhere less than 50% just to avoid doing it again right away.

Back to the bigger issue.

Guy says these have 50k on them. Worth a shot?

I don't remember doing the injector line loosening diagnosis again on Saturday night. I will do that again tonight and pay close attention to the #1 cylinder. Would 4* or so retarded timing cause such a consistent vibration? Or would it just be kinda doggy? Seems like one cylinder down would be really consistent like I'm feeling that varies with engine speed. But, it also seems to me that it would still be willing to blow lots of black smoke if just on injector down.

Fso-6406a and almost all your problems will be solved!

Throwout bearing goes and it's time to swap in a dumptruck transmission for towing 7k? Come on hahaha

Remembering my locker ordeal lesson and questioning if used injectors are worth it...

Confirmed with them on the phone that the injectors are the same for 5spd/auto, pump is different. $12.50 for shipping. Not worth the risk going used for that price.

[mr.mindless]

under 200 for a set seems too cheap.

DAP is who I've gone through and trust, twice the price, $300 and up. http://www.dieselautopower.com/category_s/419.htm

i would also confirm on the phone do they rebuild, or just test cores and re sell if in spec.  a lot of injector companies do that- very common.

Mike, when Chad loosened the #1 delivery valve line, didn't you ask why it was spinning with it? Is this an issue that you guys would have spotted when loosening that DV or when Chad took it out for the timing?

[mr.mindless]

Wouldn't see that without pulling the valves.

we didn't crack lines again after failing at timing, could easily be a DV or holder issue especially if it's specific to one hole.
