Boy this has been a drawn out activity. I hope it goes swiftly for you and you get your hands on the beast smoothly from there. Who are you using for the VASS engineering?
PeeBee, If your question is for me, the yes, it has been drawn out.
Reason is: I know the dude, he does good work, and I trust him.
He can be a little hard to "pin down" to start work, because he is particular about getting it right.
He did put in a 4 post hoist just for the truck, he has normally 2 poster hoists.
The VASS guy is in Bayswater, he only does the 6.5s, recommended by Brunswick Diesel, had a chat to him, seems to know his stuff, though his input is minimal.
@MB, I purchased two of these air locker dump valves from ARB - not avail in Aussie, had to buy from England. They are fitted down near the diff end of the line and its a simple task of pushing a button to expel the air and any moDSC01978.JPGDSC01979.JPGisture. i know you have your water separator in line, and that should be enough, however for those without that gear, this might be a solution for cold weather trips and lockers. The part number is 170110. Cost is around $75/valve then freight. They were despatched via DHL, pretty expensive at $65 but I had the items in 4 days. I am still waiting for gear to arrive from QLD and thats 2 weeks by good old Aust post.
Grrrr......Just gave the old 6.5 an absolute flogging test up our hill with boat on tow to see if any faults would appear. The pimped GQ 170amp alt issue is back! No spotties or fridges running this time only rad fans and stock aircon fan, (Total max say 60amps). Cruised along the dirt road to home and she’s back again. Bonnet up and the alt can vaporise a drop of water atop instantly:-(
Qwik piks of the air install on mine.
Runs off the A/C pulley (obviously)
Only issue is that it is goddam hot down there under the A/C
Soooo... I'm thinking of sourcing cooler air somehow
Dolphins are so smart that within a few weeks of captivity, they can train people to stand on the very edge of the pool and throw them fish.
Whereabouts ET on the turbo serpy beasts do BD position the alternator mate? Our NA’s have em on top but still friggin hot up here. Really do have to pull my finger out and get the new bonnet painted up and fit it to catch some fresh air :-(
