I do like the air idea, I will have onboard air for the “shop". Only issue is cost and maybe durability. I would need to buy all the air stuff plus the air compatible rear suspension and axle. Maybe...

Do you have any idea how heavy or expensive 18' ramps would be? I know a guy that did it out of aluminum and they're still heavy and they cost him $2500 in material. My bus was 1400$. A smart car is...

The overhang is 12ft ft from wheel center to the back edge of the bumper. 29" high at the bumper and 25" under the exhaust tip that hasn't scraped ever. Getting the low point to 20" would make my...

Rear end overhang height?

I have a 1988 s1853 40ft bus. I'm building it to haul a car in the back. It's been a few years long project waiting to be started, been back and forth on how to do it best, on the back on a flat bed....

I finally fixed it. It was a corroded fuse. Not even blow. Just had a slight buildup of crap on it. Started jiggling things with a driver in the bus and it came to life. So dumb and annoying but at...

I feel like I read that there were dt466 with a p pump (so it should be a direct fit on a dt360 ) but they're not very common. I'd be interested to see what you end up doing since mine is a slow...

The issue with the 10 overdrive is that the jump is pretty big with the 5.38 rear. I'm not really trying to do both. I don't need od with a 4.10 or really a 4.44.but double with the stock rear gives...

Yeah 4.10 would be for the non overdrive spicer 5 speed manual. A 12/13 speed like a RTLO-14713A with double overdrive split at .73 and .86 would be great with the 5.38. A 4.51 and a 3.92 for flat...

Mine is an a pump. It's stock but it will probably get turned up. My concern is the spicer 5 speed not being rated terribly high. Honestly I've driven my bus 1 time since I ve owned it. Home 2 hours...

P-pump is very possible with an adapter. Check out ginger auto on you tube, he did it but I forget the company that sells it. From what I understand the dt360 long block will support SERIOUS power...

2002 3000re No wait to start, no crank

I have a 3000re with a t444e that ran great. I've had it a couple years and it's always had a little battery draw that drains the batteries after a week or two of sitting. I'm finally getting around...

It moves ok. Seems a little weak but I realy only drive it home from buying it. It's a 5.38 and it was wound up at 60mph. It needs the fuel screw turned up and a 4.11-4.30 gear I figure. I haven't...
