My new truck

[n8in8or]

I just cut a piece of key down, cut the reluctor off a bottom timing gear and found there was enough engagement in the lower gear and the balancer to hold the keyway for the reluctor. I was going to weld it into a single piece, but once I trial fit it I was satisfied with how well it was retained and didn’t bother. For what it’s worth…

Alternative would be to tig the relucter to the gear once in place, a couple tacks would hold it..

Progress finally

I knew you could do it..

Glad you got it. Was it just not in your kit, or think you lost it? Have me thinking I need to look in mine.

 

[ak diesel driver]

Not sure what happened to it.

And I would doubt Leroy would have extras in stock. Plus even if he did the shipping time to you wouldn’t be fun.

I emailed Leroy in July when I needed one and he has extra stock of both the reluctors and the keys. It was a couple days before he got back to me and in the meantime I had decided to see what I could do myself and was happy with the results. I needed them because my gearset was from WarWagon's partout of Patch, which was a DB2 truck. But yeah, your truck would have been down a while waiting for that key to show up.

Leroy only has a few keys and reluctors left. He is sending me a key so I have one for my other set.
