Is this the same thing? https://partsouq.com/en/search/all?q=22305-17590

Looks like they've acknowledged the TD42 and 1HD series motors don't have room due to the intake manifold, but there's a "remote" version in development for them, I guess that moves some of the bulk off the pump. Very interesting, and would make tuning these things a whole new ballgame! Nice...

Given that PTO winch 80 series are fairly rare in most of the world, are you able to post a pic of what components are behind the bumper that need to be considered?

With respect to "How much does tire width/tire weight (steel vs. alloy rims, etc) effect fuel economy?", rotating mass counts for far more than static mass. Depending on where you look, it seems somewhere around 8X the effect. So adding 10lbs to your wheel/tires setup has the effect of adding...

I tried googling for some more info on that turbo, from what I can gather it's an upgraded compressor housing and turbine on an otherwise stock, gas engine spec CT26. The gas engine versions of these turbos have larger exhaust housings, so they spool up slower on a low revving diesel, I think...

Driving style makes a difference, high RPM + low load = lower EGT's, while low RPM + high load = higher EGT's. Keeping EGT's under control in the mountains is really where an intercooler would shine IMO, driving by EGT gauge is stressful. Here on the prairies I find at highway speeds, even a...

Full hydro A442F locks up only in OD/4th, which really serves to "load" the engine, so it's going to feel a lot different than 1-3, and it makes sense that EGT's would rise. At what speed and RPM are you seeing the 3-4 shift, and TC lockup when accelerating, and what's the timing of that...

A diesel will never see "vacuum", as diesels get all the air they want all the time, most don't have throttle plates (if they do it's only for smoothing shutdown). The manifold/boost compensator/boost sensor circuit will see atmospheric pressure and boost only. Vacuum is only present on the...

Ordered! I've been watching this thread for a while, thanks for getting the RHD non-ABS stuff across the finish line!

Any chance you have another?

Safe to assume then that there will be a solution for RHD with no ABS when the dust settles on this?

To get out of the parkade, lol.

Says the guy who lives where it never gets cold... This is a bigger issue for some than others, and where you live is a big part of that, lol.

I saw the video on my feed this morning as well, which lead me here. I'd love to hear from someone who has it.

A '91 will be a fully mechanical A442, TC lockup only in 4th. Basically, driving with a trans temp gauge, you see trans temps rise anytime the trans is working, and not in lockup. Climbing grades in lower gears, makes a lot of heat!
