3" between the radiator support and the snout. think i'm going to try to have a hub made to bolt a 6.9 IDI fan on it, minus the fan clutch.

ran a bead of weld around it to help keep the flange on the w/p shaft. this weekend we'll make up some mounts!

is there really any difference between using the tractor or the truck crank pulley? i will use the tractor one simply because i spent $125 on it. but is there any advantage/disadvantage over either? i have plenty of room for the truck crank pulley.

the only thing i'm worried about is the rear trans mounts are right when the old crossmember bolted onto and the trans bolted to. i'm worried if the twisting and weight on the shackles will be an issue.....

does anyone know the gallon per hour flow rate of a DT466 waterpump? i called TAPP radiators to help me figure out what rad and fan setup i should go with and they said that would help them figure it out. thanks!

She's coming along nicely Jon.


Where'd you get the ag pullies?

I might try that route vs. mod'ing a serp setup from a newer DT.

Went with some 4" chevy truck springs. after 3 sets of busings we had to order them direct from skyjacker. looks like it will work out pretty good!
