Rust belt of the US is just as bad, I try and smear some oil on my frame whenever I change it. It won't last forever but it's definitely better than it could be.
This one is already better. The Fab rats is cute and nice, Matts will work, Deboss will stomp that competition. Lets see what Chad builds. With out Chad's Fab none of Matt's, or Paul's would ever run. Robbie too. Deboss don't need help.
@@ktmcc4360 well you'r partly right, but "stomp that competition" I'am not as sure of, if they would be competing in offroad since they name it "offroad rollback" I bet my pennies on FabRats Paul Cox.
" thats just first few layers of steel " watching all the way from Australia it blows my mind seeing sheer amount of rust on things during some of these vids.
I was plowing snow back in 2013 thru 2018 in Maryland. And the Sterlings getting hard to source parts. Sterling went out in 2009. That could be why she was scraped with 100 k miles on it. Love the content, keep it up. Have a great summer.
The main box overdrive change will require buying 6 new gears, since there is no tag you will need the numbers off of the main shaft gears to I.D main box. Depending on the auxiliary section Eaton Fuller went through a number of changes through the years, 6 series had cylindrical roller bearings in the main box and 7 series moved into tapered bearings in the auxiliary with helical cut gears.
Actually, you don’t need all those gears, I believe. We did this on our tow truck 15+ years ago. There are two? Gears only they swap out, it changes your shift pattern so the 3 and 4 positions are switched. We had it done by a heavy transmission repair shop in Edmonton. I can find their name if you are interested. It gave 12 to 15 percent overdrive
On the 10 speed they also made a couple shift cover versions, when you add overdrive to the main box it alters the shift pattern. 4th gear will be where 5th used to be and 5th will be where 4th used to be. Eaton did make a shift cover that would give you a standard shift pattern with an overdrive main box.
If you ever need any parts of information for that transmission let me know, work on them every day that is most likely a RTX 14710. For sure a 7 series though by the air Piston design.
Eaton Info ranger for parts catalog, they really aren't that difficult other than pressing the countershaft gears off/on. If you feel like shipping it I'm in eastern North Dakota.
@@anchorbrandranch definitely, it has finer teeth in the front box and helical gears in the back that run smoother. And a updated main shaft with thrust washers between each gear. So you won't burn gears/thrust washers like the 5-series would when pulling hard. Along with many other general improvements.
Like the effort put in to see if the bit you want works. No effort spared up to spending money. Common sense applied when needed and knowing when to call it a day.. looking forwards to seeing you rip stuff apart and getting it mounted and Vince working his magic. Cheers…
Heh heh, I feel your pain Rich! Typical 'Down-Time' 466.🤪 I absolutely despised these engines when I was still in the automotive business. The standard DT-466 wasn't quite as bad, but when the 'E' series came out, our local school district bought several buses with them, and I can't tell you how many hours I spent on the phone with the IHC dealer, and the guy that actually turned wrenches at the bus yard. (They tried to get me to work for them, but I stayed far away from the place!) I just helped with diagnostics once in a while, if I couldn't talk my way out of it..🤣 They also had a couple of 24v. common-rail Cummins-powered Thomas buses that almost NEVER gave any problems (at least engine-wise).😉
I do enjoy the content on this old truck Rich, I've always been so envious of you guys in Canada as you have some seriously good looking old machines 👌🏻
it's a 613 Roadranger, the back end disassembles different than a the larger trans. 1 1/2" splines were originally used on everything until higher HP came around and became 2".
Like I said, in previous videos, you should I get a metric ton. It’s a lot better 10 speed. I told you to get a hold of me if you have any questions. I rebuilt hundreds of these probably thousand it would make your truck through 100 miles an hour. It has very high overdrive
I work for a large transport company. Everytime I see or hear the word Roadranger I think of our local terminal manager bragging about how he hired a new driver who was "Roadranger ready" Everybody was waiting to be allowed to laugh but he was serious. This made me think about making a movie about a maverick truck driver, the last one in the world who could drive stick *MOVIE PREVIEW VOICE* "In a world full of automatics comes one man. ROADRANGER" That terminal manager was a real life Micheal Scott.
This will be an awesome build . A few other channels are building off road wreckers. They are beta testing them as they go, but this one will really get you there and back in a hurry. Good job on the frame work it'll look great.
I'm catching on to your international DT466 attraction. I learned box truck driving on Ford tilt cabs. When they finally outlived their use as band moving trucks, renting Ryder Ints with 466's became the norm. I loved driving those trucks hauling rock bands from town to town. I'm on the waitlist for electrifying my ISC Cummins and Allison.
While the shift cover is off, free up the 4-5 & 9-10 shift pivot pin. The shouldered pin rust jacks and makes it very difficult to shift those gears. I used to work on ny salt trucks, ask me how I know.
if your painting old stuff like a frame, get some penetrol additive for it,at a industrial paint store, Lowes HD in the US has it in paint section, It makes it stick much better., and if you want UV protection, Hardness and shine, get some wet look additive.
You've pretty much covered all engine manufacturers now with all your projects. They assemble Paccar trucks in Montréal. One of them would make a cute pickup.
Check all the input shaft. Also make sure you don’t need to change it while it’s out. If you need more of these transmissions they’re basically the antique I’m getting ready to throw a couple of them away.
We got a couple scrap yards around here but they’re not like V&R, you’re not gonna get anything that resembles a deal on anything and neither want you going out there taking anything apart yourself, you tell them what you want and they’ll go get it at their convenience and charge you accordingly 🤣
have you thought about using wheel motors on the front of trucks that don't have a solod front axil. In theory you could avoid redoing the front end and just replace the knuckle. thought for the electric conversion. to simplify the front-end upgrade
Good video. You can't swap 4th and 5th (9th and 10th) to make an overdrive as the step between 3rd and 4th ( 8th and 9th) would be too great. The best thing to do is upgrade the 10 speed to a 13 or 15 speed by replacing the back of the transmission, that is easy to then change to an overdrive.
Get the vin number off cab call a freight liner dealer if it’s the trans that came in truck they can tell you what model it is it’s probably original transmission
If the input gear is smaller than the mainshaft gear right behind it, as we can clearly see at 6:18 it is NOT an overdrive. To make it an overdrive you need to change the input gear to a larger one and install smaller countershaft header gears. It may even need more parts than that. You need new parts, there is nothing you can switch around in the box to make it an overdrive.
DT466 E or not, always has Oil rail o-ring problems and injector issues. They also have a bad problem with cam lobes whiping out and lifter/push rods dropping down. The subsequent Maxxforce engines in 9, 10, 11 L variants are the same exact design as the original DT466-E just with more electronics attached to it, and same problems. The Maxxforce 13 is a special kind of fucked up, it's a Man engine that got a really bad EGR system strapped to it.
Put something on the back that you can race in the pikes peak hill climb! Then roll this thing to Colorado Springs, just so you can get the thumbnail of it in front of Fargo's Pizza!
His address & email are in every video description. Click on the video title at top of screen while watching it, video description will show up on right side. At bottom it says: more.... click on that and every thing will show up. Email, mail address, etc.
The E's are ok, but ya, you need to go through the wiring harness and pull all of the utter crap that International felt the need to put on their chassis. But if your just some noob that pokes wires to the battery without knowing where they go, and puts M12 batteries under seats........... JK!!! JK!!! dont get all pissed off!! 🙂
im wondering how your registering this truck? im looking at getting a topkick for towing a camper and daily driving but i dont want to have to do a log book every time i take it out.
