NOTE: 7.4 (454) ORIGINAL ENGINE WAS PROFESSIONALY COMPLETELY OVER HAULED AT 89041 MILES
WHILE ENGINE WAS OUT OF TRUCK FOR THE OVERHAUL,ENGINE BARE BLOCK WAS TAKEN TO MACHINE AND COOKED CLEAN,NEW FREEZE PLUGS INSTALLED,NEW CAM BEARINGS INSTALLED,PISTON CYLINDERS WERE HONED,CRANK SHAFT WAS CHECKED AND REGROUND,BOTH CYLINDER HEADS HAD VALVE JOB DONE WITH NEW VALVE SEALS,NEW ROD BEARINGS,NEW MAIN BEARINGS,NEW PISTON RINGS,NEW OIL PUMP,NEW OIL PUMP SCREEN,NEW FELPRO GASKETS,NEW REAR MAIN SEAL,1= NEW PISTON,1= NEW CONNECTING ROD,WE ALSO INSTALLED A BRAND NEW COMPLETE CLUTCH ASSEMBLY WITH NEW THROW OUT BEARING,BOTH FRONT STEERING TIRES ARE NEW,1 REAR TIRE NEW,OTHER 3 REAR TIRES 80% GOOD,ALTEC BOOM AND KUBOTA PONY MOTOR WORKS GREAT,THIS TRUCK RUNS GREAT AND WORKS GREAT, ALL IT NEEDS THAT I DIDNT DO IS TO HAVE THE BENCH SEAT RECOVERED.
NOTE: THE REASON I OVERHAULED THE ENGINE IS WHEN I BOUGHT THE TRUCK IT WASNT RUNNING,SO WHEN I DISMANTLED THE ENGINE I FOUND OUT WHY, THE HEAD GASKET HAD A BAD SPOT THAT ALLOWED ANTIFREEZE TO FILL THE CYLINDER AND WHEN IT WAS IN COMPRESSION STROKE IT COULDNT COMPRESS SO IT BENT THE ROD, LUCKY ENOUGH IT DIDNT TOUCH THE CYLINDER WALL, SO IT NEEDED ONLY A NEW PISTON AND CONNECTING ROD, BUT INSTEAD OF BEING CHEAP ABOUT IT, I SPENT THE MONEY AND WENT ALL THE WAY AND DID A PROPER ENGINE REBUILD BECAUSE I WANTED THE TRUCK DEPENDABLE AND WAS GOING TO KEEP IT LONG TERM, BUT MY SON WORKS 6 DAYS A WEEK AT HIS JOB AND REALLY DONT HAVE MUCH TIME TO USE THE TRUCK,SO THAT IS WHY ITS FOR SALE, WE ARE NOT IN THE TREE BUSINESS, THIS TRUCK WAS FOR REMOVING TREES ON MY RENTAL PROPERTIES.
REASON I BOUGHT A NEW BUCKET FOR THE TRUCK IS THE OLD BUCKET HAD SOME SMALL CRACKS IN IT AND MY SON WAS GOING TO BE IN IT, SO I BOUGHT A BRAND NEW BUCKET FOR 1900.00 FROM ALTEC TO MAKE SURE ITS SAFE.
