Even though the axles will not go in my ambulance, I thought I would at least share what engine/tranny is being paired up with the axles. I just picked up today a 2001 Caterpillar 3126B 190hp with a Fuller 5spd and steering gear out of a Freightliner school bus. Yup, a school bus with a stick. 106K miles on it.

Thats a real live diesel there buddy...nice!

It has the perfect oil pan for clearing the centered diff

Nice find. Is that an ECM on the driver side back of the block?

Yes, it is. I have the connectors, but the guy that removed the engine cut them off. The engine side connector is saveable, but the chassis side is wasted. I have a wiring diagram for the whole engine (from work) so I just need to get some replacement pins and make new leads. I also have the pedal and steering box from the bus.

Its not going in the ambulance, but I will post a link to the build thread when I start it.
