@@nathanlebaron5867 can do 66 mph@2500 now. Got A3 axles, Goodyear G177's and got a T1118 overdrive t case. Using my 366 and 5652 spicer my truck originally came with. Cruise speed is spot on the sweet spot of peak torque. Truck drives and tows excellent.
the max of 50 was likely a power limit not a handling limit. iirc the original engines in these things were rated somewhere around 150hp which is peanuts for something this big.

My 5 ton don't sound that good, course it has a straight pipe going all the way to the end of the bed, hey question I want to put some Led light strip in the cab under the dash and just under the edge of the seat, can I tie into the 12 volt going to the heater or should I get a 24 Volt to 12 Volt step down.
Awesome job on that one. I had a 1970 5 ton multi- fuel. 165 horse 330 ft lb of torque ticking Time Bomb junk motor I see how that thing pulls with the Cummins in it if that's only a 5'9 oh my God day and night difference
Can you please download the dB meter app, calibrate it, and show us if you're under 90dB when flooring it? Deuce & Guns showed the stock Kaiser motor was 90dB, max (low 80's during idle...yikes), so I wonder if the 6BT is quieter?
I just scored a 5.9 for my bus that the universe won't let me give up on. Now I have to choose between running the at545 that's currently on the cummins or spending another grand to get the sae2 flywheel housing and clutch parts for the cummins so I can put the fso6406 I built behind it.
@@tacticalrepair I know. :( I really want to run that six speed. All that effort to adapt it to a LDT is out the window, hate to lose the rebuild time and parts cost too if I end up selling it. No one seems to be buying anything lately. I'll be happy if I can get it out on the forest road though, even if top speed is only 50.
@@wildcard2058 so your Allison has an SAE3 bellhousing and your Eaton has an SAE2, right? You could probably get an SAE3 bellhousing for the Eaton pretty cheap and just run a 13" clutch, which would be cheaper.
@@tacticalrepair I'm $4k in the hole now and no hope for rent coming up. I gotta make do with what's here. Never even seen a SAE3 clutch housing for a fuller FS series though, and the clutch housing probably costs as much as the sae2 flywheel housing I'd need.
Tactical Repair that’s awesome. I’m hoping to do a 5.9 swap soon on my A2. Having fuel pump issues on the multifuel. Just got the brakes done and new a3 wheels on.
5.9l kind of small for this application? well, maybe good for personal use like here. But a bigger engine prob would last longer for severe duty in military use.
Nah. They had these engines in school busses, day cab semi tractors, and rollback wreckers, heavy equipment, etc. Mine came out of an F800 wrecker. Moves out well and tows like a champ. As far as longevity is concerned, I bet it lasts longer than 50,000 miles like the original multifuel engines. And rebuild parts are still plentiful.
I can't say for sure, but and educated guess would be around 550-600. The older first generation 6BT engines with small turbo, small injection pump and injectors did 400 lb/ ft stock. The P7100 pumped engines were much more powerful, and I've done a little bit with the fuel plate on this one too.
@@tacticalrepair what were the factory overdrive gear ratios for the 3053a? I'm seeing .86, .85, .83 and .79. How hard would it be to find a trans with a .79 OD or just a gearing swap?
@@bladenrexroth2555 the 3053A in the military application have a .89 5th ratio. There are plenty of other transmissions with better overdrive ratio, many of them are five and six speed options from Eaton. Problem is they're all longer and require moving the transfer case back a few inches and then making corresponding driveshaft modifications. Not an insurmountable task, just not something I've had the time and money to do. They're also rated for much more torque than the 3053A.
Wow! That’s impressive. I can’t keep my truck on the road over 62 mph. The 46” super singles bounce off the highway like super balls. Lol. I’ve gradually increased the number of Dynabeads to 1.5 lb per tire with little improvement in the tire hopping. Are you still running the stock Saginaw or did you swap the transmission with something a little more user friendly? I’ve considered a Cummins swap in the future but the LDT keeps plugging away happily without a care. Has been far more durable than I was led to believe when I purchased the truck 5 years ago.
What a horse... Have you ever looked into a transmission swap to turn some lower RPM's while cruising? I've always wondered about it, but could never find any good answers. Figured i'd ask the man!
I have the Waterloo overdrive in this one so it's already way better than a stock transmission. I have figured out the best replacement 5speed that holds more power and has an even higher ratio overdrive though. Eaton TO-11605A with the .66 ratio 5th.
What do you think about swapping in a LDS multifuel? Seems like it should be a direct swap and they have have 200hp compared to the LDT 130hp and 440 ft Ibs of torque compared to 330
That's what I had before this swap. They perform great. The problem is longevity. Mine gave me about 50,000 miles before it shattered a liner and jammed the piston at the bottom of the stroke right in the driveway. When I pulled the oil pan there were large pieces of liner laying in it and the engine was locked up. After four different multifuel engines I wanted an engine that would last. The Cummins is also lighter by a few hundred pounds, cheaper and easier to get parts for, and way easier to upgrade. The lower front end weight is very noticeable while driving. Much nicer handling and acceleration.
@@hummerguy ARP head studs, o-ring the heads, and have the rotating assembly balanced. Still leaves you with the issue of liners shattering though. When that happens at speed, it jams a piston, breaks a rod and knocks a hole in the block. The work I just listed cost so much that you could just buy a 5.9L Cummins instead. That's why I say it really isn't cost effective to rebuild the multifuel anymore.
@@hummerguy I'm not sure because I don't know how long the 4500 is. It might if you push the engine forward, but then you need to look at oil pan clearance to either the front crossmember or the axle, depending on which way you have the pan installed. You also need to find out what the overdrive ratio of it is. The Spicer is .89-1 ratio, so you want that or lower, like .79 or .69 or something. You don't want to cut your top end speed.
Is this a Cummins conversion with the original transmission or is that swapped as well? I'm tossing around the idea of getting a deuce in the future and would want to do a Cummins swap for sure
Oh man so cool. Whats your mpg with the cummins? I used to work on five tons and hummers in the marines back in the 90s. We didnt have deuce and a halfs. But i always liked them for the size.
Used an SAE2 clutch housing and an SAE2 to SAE3 adapter ring. The stock transmission is SAE3. I could've used an SAE3 clutch housing and just bolted it up with no adapter but I wanted to install a big 14" clutch, which won't fit inside an SAE3 housing.
Not really worth using that ever a 5.9L. Yes it has been done but it's a real tight fit, no room for an air charge cooler, too heavy for the front end, too much off idle torque for the drivetrain, etc.
@@tacticalrepair That's what I thought, just confirming. Will look into weather or not the 5.9 will bolt to the Allison Auto in our trucks. We have another use for our 8.3. Thank you sir, I hope you are well.
@@frankdwyer7051 it will bolt to it. Just have to make sure you get the right flywheel housing for the back of the 5.9L. I'm not sure if you need an SAE2 or SAE3 for your Allison.
