Engine/Transmission (1994 - 1998) Thicker nut for end of p-pump shaft?

[RonA]

The standard nut is 10 mm thick. Has anyone run across a thicker one? 13mm would be perfect. My threads are worn and I would like to use as much thread as possible. Was quoted $1600 to replace the shaft. Just trying to be cheap.

Dang Ron, I didn't think anyone broke there pump nut loose as much as me... ... I buy lock nuts a dozen at a time.



Try calling a pump shop and see if they have a nut for a P-Pump on a Mack or something. You know we use a Mack rack cap for more travel... ... .

Thanks for the info Jim. Be carefull handing out too many secrets to me. I'm over 1/2 of your horsepower now. (Yep, I'm reelin him in like a big fish). 3/5's is the next goal.

Funny you should mention the lock nuts. I just ordered 4 more on Friday.



Wilddiesel, pm is on the way.
