Dang it (Page 1/2) Dukesterpro OCT 08, 03:16 PM Spent all my time getting my LQ1 Cradle back together after refreshing the motor (new belts and seals) and swapping my MY18 for a Isuzu MT2. (I know this is a bad decision I just want to see how it feels), Brought the boys over (they work MOW on the railroad and are only homes on saturday) to put the cradle back in the car. Figured oh better put my exhaust on just to find the Isuzu throwout arm is higher than the Muncies and hits my nice finished exhaust. I had to buy everyone pizza and they didnt even have to do any work. I dont need any help with this, I just wanted to rant lol 82-T/A [At Work] OCT 09, 07:41 AM It'll be worth it when it's done! I'll take some pizza too! haha... 88Fingers OCT 09, 08:26 AM What toppings on the pizza? Dukesterpro OCT 09, 09:25 AM quote Originally posted by 88Fingers: What toppings on the pizza? We went with a handtossed pepperoni and sausage and a hawaiian, with canadian bacon and pineapple.

Pizza is only provided for those who participate in hours of grueling physical labor. If you come up and help me rebuild the front end on my M35A2, I get ya pizza AND beer, lol olejoedad OCT 09, 09:55 AM A good rule of thumb is to have everything on the engine and cradle (except for the exhaust tips and turnouts) prior to installing the cradle into the chassis. This includes hoses, belts, wiring, manifolds alternator, axles, suspension arms, struts and knuckles....etc. Do it like they did at the assembly plant. Dukesterpro OCT 09, 10:21 AM Thats how I always do it, I just overlooked the exhaust until the last minute since there were so many other distractions happening, Im hoping next week I can can trim and splice a bit till it all fits again. 82-T/A [At Work] OCT 09, 10:46 AM quote Originally posted by Dukesterpro: Pizza is only provided for those who participate in hours of grueling physical labor.

I'm totally down with that. 88Fingers OCT 09, 01:13 PM Very nice toppings indeed. I put a frozen pizza on a sheet then place it on the engine. I drive to the next town and back and wow! Cooked to perfection! Patrick OCT 09, 07:56 PM quote Originally posted by Dukesterpro: We went with a handtossed pepperoni and sausage and a hawaiian, with canadian bacon and pineapple. Excellent choice!
