Everything is brand new (even though we bought the motor 4 years ago - yeah stupid). It was supposed to go into an air vac rig, but we used something else for that and are now modifying it to be the CARB compliant replacement for the deck engine in a drill rig. We have everything we need incl...

All we need is the "splined shaft SAE B - 13 T 16/32 DP" with the arrows pointing to it in that tech manual screen shot I posted. However, without a real part number, we don't know how to find that part, and Deutz/Valley Power have been no help. I ordered a part with that description, PN...

Yes, hydraulic pump to power a drill rig.

It's a fairly large deck motor. I'm not sure the spec, but here is a screen shot from a tech manual showing what we're trying to do. On p2 the red arrows show the part we apparently need, but it's just a description, not a PN. I tried ordering a part that matched that description but it is...

Anyone have any advice for technical assistance for a PTO adaptation? So far, neither of these has been able to help us. We are now going to machine shops to try to create the part we need, but incredibly we have a description of it in a German tech manual, but no part number. We've been...

Wow good memory. I was on a gas turbine ship from '92-96 and I wouldn't have remembered all those steps.

I'm an old Navy guy, so things may be different for this ship. Losing electrical power is the worst. EVERYTHING shuts down. Then you need to trip all the breakers (take the load off that caused the shut down), bring the generators back up, reset the breakers (in emergency, just the ones you...

A couple thoughts: Left Coast Brewing - might be a little small, not sure how big your group is Yard House - it's big, dark, pretty loud inside - I haven't been in yrs, but it used to by pricy, so I'm sure its pricier now Between the Rinks - this is new to me, never been but interesting...

Opening day of what?

I just watched a Sur Ronster ebike review video on Youtube this morning and they rode up to some abandoned missile silo in the LA hills.

Rustic Hunt

Looks like 1 reason to go to NYC in a few years. Nope. Still not worth it to go there.

HaHa! That’s what I had last night. Still have a few of those bbq rinds left so there will be a repeat this evening.

Wow. He isn't holding back. Hope at least some people who've had their ears and eyes closed to anything but their tv pay attention to him.
