Make sure to change the steering shock while you are at it. Dont want the death wobble to raise its ugly head.

Are you sure its the winshield and not the fresh air vents in the kick panels. If you have removed them, they can be a real bear to reseal.

Tin snips is easier than using a grinder.

You will also need a new transfercase, as the 400 and 700 dont interchange.

Possible that you bent the flex plate during swap.

What makes you think the 1984 lines were not made in Mexico.

Before rebuilding it. Check online. I bought a BRAND NEW unit for $600 last summer.

Have the batteries checked. They maybe good and your right side alt is not working.

In stock form, both alternators have isolated grounds and are interchangable.

Just for your info. If the new style Blizzard mounts between the frame rails like the older style plows, there is a minor issue. The CUCV has extra brackets on the frame which makes them about 3/8 narrower than civi trucks. May need to trim the snow plow truck under carrage to fit properly.

If you dont have a meter, just pull a glo plug and ground the GP body, turn on the ignition and see if it glows red. Buy a new set of correct CUCV plugs since you probably need them.

Check the linkage where it bolts to the trans . That bolt can loosen and cause the slop you are talking about. One of my pickups had the same symptom. And it was just the nut on the trans shifter.

Drum brakes are designed to work in the forward direction more than reverse. The primary shoe contacts the drum and slightly rotates the brake assy to push the secondary shoe into the drum. In reverse it doesnt do that. Basic high school auto shop class stuff. You need to pull the drum off to...

The No Spin differentials act kinda funny with no load on them. Put a drive shaft in it and place trans in neutral . Rotating one wheel will cause the other to rotate same direction. Place the trans in park and wheels will lock. Then take a hold of one tire and rock it back and forward and you...

The case will leak where the two halves mate also. GM didnt use gaskets on the 208.
