I have a brand new unopened TurboNap mattress system. I opened the cover (still in the plastic) but the mattress is still air sealed. $600.00 you pay shipping. These mattresses are currently on a 5 week lead time from Go Fast.
I have a U.S. spec. 80 series that is 1hd-ft swapped with Slee ARB twin compressor / dual battery tray and washer bottle relocation kit. Not sure what airbox works with this configuration. Any suggestions? I plan on installing a snorkel and PDI front mount intercooler.
Another issue that resolved itself was the transmission. Before the latest fix, the transmission was shifting hard and holding in second and third gear. The original mechanic had no clue what was causing this issue. I thought it was the solenoids in the transmission. I had the solenoids replaced...
Wanted to update this post for things other folks should consider. I have the truck back and it has power. EGTs are normal. Max EGTs on the way home pulling up a long steep hill was 1150. The pump was pulled and the mechanic discovered that the injection pump shaft and shaft key was not...
The truck is drivable but in my opinion lacks power. I have driven a 1hd-t with a manual and it feels slow as well but not as slow as my truck. Granted I daily drive a Duramax truck, which is night and day difference. I completely understand these engines are not fast.
I'm hoping after a few...
I don't have the truck with me since it went to the mechanic but could take a picture when I get it back home. I actually bought an additional set of Allen wrenches that are for tight spaces and it still didn't fit without hitting. I can get an Allen wrench on two of the four bolts.
I would if I could get the top cover off without removing the pump and/or loosening the pump and turning it away from the motor. I've watched numerous videos but most only show the 1hd-t. I can't figure out how to get an Allen wrench on the Allen bolt on the top cover of the injection pump...
Transmission is an A442F that came with the motor. Truck has 37” tires and 4.88 gears, which I installed before the diesel swap. If it wasn’t for my wife and kids I would have preferred a manual swap.
Engine stars great.
It may only be slow to me due to my concern and constant concern over the...
He is very familiar with diesels. He has over 35 years of diesel experience. He is not familiar with a Toyota diesel and admitted that to me before I delivered the truck to him. I trust his knowledge with diesels.
No noticeable smoke when accelerating. I can see smoke if I apply throttle when...
