Is the truck powered buy a gas engine or a diesel, if it's a diesel is it a two or four stroke? Does the truck have a hydraulically activated clutch? If you can tell us the bore of the current cylinder that would help to pin it down. | | | | | Joined: Apr 2008 Posts: 23 Apprentice | | Apprentice Joined: Apr 2008 Posts: 23 | I havent picked it up yet from where I bought it and can only tell you it a 292 six banger it does have a dump bed with 2 cyliders and I really know nothing about that. I does has a square top master cylinder and it is manuel brakes. Thats really all I know till I get her home. Thanks Bob | | | | | Joined: Jun 2004 Posts: 8,597 Riding in the Passing Lane | | Riding in the Passing Lane Joined: Jun 2004 Posts: 8,597 | I really dought it is manual brakes. It must have a booster under the chassis. You are going to have to know the dia of the bore on this one as there are many variables. Also some have a clutch master cylinder in the same housing.
They say money can't buy happiness. It can buy old Chevy trucks though. Same thing. 1972 Chevy c10 Cheyenne SuperIn the Gallery Forum | | | | | Joined: Apr 2008 Posts: 23 Apprentice | | Apprentice Joined: Apr 2008 Posts: 23 | Ok I got her home and your right it does have a power brake booster under the drivers side cab . I want to try bleeding the brake but do you know how to properly bleed them. I've have bled many brakes before but never with a set up like this.Do I do anything different? Thanks Bob | | | | | Joined: Mar 2008 Posts: 38 Apprentice | | Apprentice Joined: Mar 2008 Posts: 38 | Finally. Having temperatures warmed to the mid-thirties last week allowed me access to my late-winter purchase of a 1967 Series 40 Tilt Cab water truck. Amazingly, the ole' boy fired instantly - thereby making me a believer in the previous owner's assertion: "It ran good when I parked it". The 75 mile trip home was, largely, uneventful. However I am now wondering just what colour wine one serves with fried voltage regulator and crispy horn. Reaching back to a younger day saw a quick hot-wired coil and trip resumption. The mystery of non-functioning speedometer was solved as well; difficult to spin needles and dials without cable assembly. Ah, well, mere beginning of a sure-to-be-large parts shopping list. But, with gasoline now at $5.89gal., I'm in no great rush to wear out the tires anyway. Speaking to the needed parts, is there a specific catalogue better suited for the big'uns? I rather think that a used speedometer assembly for a tilt would be difficult to locate. Plus, I do enjoy thumbing and dreaming while waiting for the lake ice to disappear.(Where is global warming when it's really needed?) | | |
