706 diesel engine id

[bn-ind]

Hello all, just recently got a 706 diesel and she needs rebuilt (bad blow by and a knock). The ser number 13155 s-y. Was wondering how to make sure I get the correct in-frame kit for the D282? Are there numbers for the engine i"m missing, seems to have several different kits available. Thanks for any help, its always much appreciated.

Have to go by the serial # on the engine

Should have a machined flat on the side of the block just about at the head gasket. one side or the other. Should have a serial number and a engine number like D-282 or whatever the engine is which is the 282. Unless it got changed in the past. Not sure which side will be what. On the D-361 it's on the block like that. Been 40 years since I looked at it.

I believe that the major parts difference was the size of the thrust bearing is larger on later model engines. When I had my 706 the head had smaller sized valves in and 70 HP was all it could do, probably was changed out. If I remember correctly, it was around 36000 or so the ser. no. break was. I don't have my repair manual at work so I 'm guessing.

Isn't there a serial number break on the sleeves, as well?

i have a early 706d with the slip fit sleeves, i does not take much to pull them out, then soon after they changed to more of a standard type sleeve more force to pull the out. then went to the 310 motor, i have a book on serial numbers but i not anyplace for the next day i can get to it.
