My fam had a truck like this one and it hauled all day everyday, that truck never let us down but sadly we had to retire it because of emissions in cali but those years before were great
I drive one for harvest hauling onions, sugar beats and combine corn but it’s a DT466 with an automatic. Only problem I have is going up a steep hill loaded it slows down a lot.
@@802Farmers I feel like if it was a manual I would have more power. I drive manuals but this one so happens to be an automatic and it’s pretty easy and layer back during harvest. I like yours a lot more however.
@@802Farmers Interesting, and how do you achieve those horsepower? I understand that from the production line the DT466 is 210hp and the DTA is 250hp from that time, unless you have done a swap to electronic DT 466.
@@802Farmers As far as I understand the maximum that can be taken out of that engine is 260hp with what you tell me, to obtain more power you would have to change the larger turbo and injection!
You don’t really have to spend any money into it. All you do is take the cap off the top of the fuel pump to increase any power as long you are going for crazy power it ain’t hurt anything
@@802Farmers did you have the pump off when you turned it up or did you turn it up in the truck and if in the truck what screw did you play with trying to turn up our dump truck but it's really hard to get to the back screw with the oil dipstick where it is looking for some help

Great trucks. Has hauled the most feed on our farm out of any truck
High shifter. straight piped. Jake brakes and no air in the seat
That’s the only way to super truck 👌🏻

Nice, I’ve drove an automatic but I’m not a big fan of them.

The dt466 will run all day long. Not the highest powered engine in the world but it wont let you down
Love that engine. Most fun truck to drive even though it brings the smallest loads
Your a lucky man to have that kind of work in your life brother.
Thank you !
I drove a truck that had a 2-60 air conditioner. Two windows down at 60 miles per hour.
Truckin vids are the best
They’re fun to make
Giver bud! Awesome iron!
I love that Woo sound.
Makes me smile ever time 👍🏻
I would like 5 cents for every trip that truck has made past our place in its life! Haha
That would be a lot of money 😂
Haha I was smiling the whole video lol
How can’t you smile listening to that truck 😂
I got a dt466e HT. 99 2554. I love it
My grand dad has an straight 6 dt466
Straight 8? The dt466 is an inline 6. But loved the video
I don’t remember saying it’s a straight 8. I’m definitely wrong about that then. Haha.
I was talking about the transmission when I said straight 8 It has a 8LL in it.
@@802Farmers I figured you knew it was a 6 mostly busting your chops 🤣 keep the videos coming great stuff
Haha. Glad you are liking the videos.
How much horsepower is that 466 and what pitch ratio does it bring in the crown and pinion of the differential?
good old school truck.
We have it turned up over 300hp but I’d be lying if I told you and ratio numbers not 100% sure what’s in it.

All you gotta do is turn the screw on the mechanical fuel pump to turn them up.

Throaty 😍😍😍
How much weight are u pulling?
We have the same truck with a 13 speed. Needs the front rear end replaced. Know of any for sale out ur way?
I don’t know of any around us.
Does that have the inline injection pump or the rotary
It’s a inline pump.
