    Allison 5sp: New Shop Do's & Don'ts

    Compressor, boiler, hot water maker will all be in a separate utility room. I've dealt with a compressor in the same room for years now, that is definitely coming to an end! Good point about getting engine hoist, carts, etc between lifts, thanks. I currently have accuturn changer and...

    Allison 5sp: LML piston difference

    I guess I was confusing on that part. The oil hole in the new piston is the same depth on either side. Which means the nozzle tip stays a good amount away from the hole in either bank. The nozzle clears either way. I've installed it both ways now to verify. The new piston has the pin...

    Allison 5sp: LML piston difference

    With nozzle relief on both sides, you can spin the piston to use on either side. Right? .030" offset in or out, just spin it around. Sent from my SM-G960U using Tapatalk

    Allison 5sp: LML piston difference

    It seems like they made them ambidextrous on purpose but the arrow should have been left off. It will only face forward on the left bank. Am I thinking right?? Sent from my SM-G960U using Tapatalk

    Allison 5sp: LML piston difference

    I double checked the part numbers 3 times at 2 different dealers. Tried a vin from a different year lml too. I even ordered a 2nd piston and its identical. It's also the same part number that vendors list for OE replacement Sent from my SM-G960U using Tapatalk

    Pin offset is same as OE. Goofy thing is the oil hole is really far away from the nozzle now. Sent from my SM-G960U using Tapatalk

    Allison 5sp: LML piston difference

    Noticed that a new replacement acdelco piston is not bank specific whereas the original ones in this 2012 are. Ordered using the vin & everything. Anyone run into this? Sent from my SM-G960U using Tapatalk

    Allison 5sp: New Shop Do's & Don'ts

    I'm building a new shop for myself and up to 2 other guys to make a living out of. I have a few specific questions but I will appreciate any advice. Like I tell everyone, even if I dont agree with you it may still get my creative juices flowing or whatever. So I'm interested in what people...

    Allison 5sp: Shock brand?

    Does anyone know what brand this shock might be?? Fluted body with that Schrader valve might give it away Sent from my SM-G960U using Tapatalk

    LML Bucking/Cut out

    Have a 2015.5 giving me fits. Bone stock. Under powertrain warranty still but dealers just scratch their heads. It will intermittenly buck very hard just prior to the upshifts. It is like a rough rev limiter. The only way I can get it to do it repeatedly is with a load on it and it still...

    Pulling distance

    In the video of your first pull, it appears to be axle wrap. Can you limit your rear travel at all in your class? Should be able to take it out by clamping leaf springs and limiting travel to 2". Rear tire pressure shouldn't be causing that issue. Sent from my SM-G960U using Tapatalk

    LLY: Starter RPM

    Call me crazy but I think there is an audible difference in the two. And I would call the lml starter 'slower' if I had to describe the sound difference. Sent from my SM-G960U using Tapatalk
