So yesterday I was able to replace the seal on the input shaft to the transfer case. Trying to get the bolts out that hold the u-joint was a pain. I t was hard to keep it from spinning but finally I got it. I went to go get some new seals for the transfer but they only had 1 in stock. The other...
I went to napa to day and ordered the spring. 5-7 business days:( Oh well, while I wait for the spring I guess Im going to replace the oil seals on the transfer case since they are leaking a little. The trans to transfer seal and the rear output seal are the ones that are leaking. I assume it...
No there is nothing special about the 30w oil. Just conventional motor oil. I dont think putting the 40w in would hurt anything but I would personally just top it off with 30w. The only reason the military used 30w oil was to keep down on the different fluids needed for vehicles. They didn't...
Ok so today I dropped the drive shaft to get to the parking brake and I will say that thing is heavy! I got the bolt off and then used a puller to get that other part off. I took the drum off and sure enough there was a loose spring in there or should I say the remanants of a spring. I took...
I have tested the parking brake but it seemed that whenever I would try to tighten the knob it would hold the truck but in any position the the handle was in. Even if I tried disengaging the parking brake I would hear and feel a little drag in the brake. I have tried adjusting it alot but it...
Ok so I checked out the truck including all the fluids, and they all seemed fine. No metal shavings which is good! I checked the bell housing which had not moved and I checked the driveshafts for play. All seemed fine. The only other thing I could think it may be would be the parking brake...
Well today I was driving my m923 around and as I was starting to drive away it slowly stopped and clunked. It felt like something was binding up. I put it in neutral got out of the truck to see it I ran over something but there was nothing. I got back in, put it in drive, released the brakes and...
This was the exact problem on my truck when I got it. It is about a 5 minute fix for each wheel. Airbrake diagnostics can be a pain but it looks like you had better luck than me finding the problem. Now I carry an extra diaphragm in the truck at all times just in case one goes out.
Is that HUGE engine going in your semtt? Just kidding, what are you going to use that engine for or did you just see it on the side of the road? Its a monster!
Looking good sometime in the future I would love to do this to my truck. Lets hope I can do it sooner than later! Are you going to make it removable or permanant?
By the looks of it, you dont need a new soft top. Thats how I got mine, all I did was sew on Super heavy duty velcro to the soft top and glue on the other side of the velcrow to the windshield. I haven't had any problems with it yet and it makes it easier to take off if you want to go...
"While I am at it, is the a specific NHC250 bracket that will work
w/ the OE power steering pupmp? If so do you have a part number?"
I wish but I have yet to find any that are available.
