Yes, I did a search...I ordered a new starter from them looking for the best quality I could find. Other than that I know nothing about them, but what I read.

Interesting. Let me check locally and I may be giving you a call. Thanks and thanks for selling me a great truck! Sorry I abused it but something was sticking in my craw. :razz:
I will be getting a Gearvendor soon. It will let me keep my TH400 with several engines.
I made this vid for the doubters. In my defense I did have a 40 knot headwind. I know it is abusing the vehicle and I will not be going that fast again.

I changed out my fuses and now my high beam blue lights work. There was nothing wrong with them other than being 25 years old. I wish one more light on my speedo would come on so I don't have to tear it down and change the bulb.
When I picked it up it was a bad snow day. I kept the hubs locked and jumped in and out of 4WD. I would slow down to about 50, pull the handle to 4H and drive at 70-75 mph on the interstate. The truck never made a complaint and I did not know I couldn't or the truck would not do this.

It's a 14 bolt and I give up. It is nice to know I can get out of my own way, but I will drive 55-60 mph.
I crawled under the truck and saw the trans, transfer case, front and rear drive shafts, and rear differential. Between the trans and tc there are some wires coming out but it is too...
It has to be the rear if the trans is stock. The fill plug bolt is a clue and may have been changed when/if they did the swap. Since the truck was the National Guard does the M1009 and M1008 parts interchange? I fear that may be the source.
I have the maintenance record and will go look...
I am a unbeliever too. I could video it, but I don't think I will push it that fast again. I will say when I first got the truck I drove 75 mph on the way home not realizing the truck didn't go that fast.
The seller already said he had it up to 68. My speedo goes to 85 and that is where I...
Nope, I already figured that out. I am thinking about the Gearvendor as it would let me leave my truck mostly stock. I still have some learning to do.
I mainly wanted to provide some pics to see if anything was different...

I think I found the answer. I had to work overtime today and looked under the vehicle before I went to work. Is this what I think it is? I admit I don't know much. Advice needed...
EDIT- Thanks Jerry. I hope I can buy from you again some day. As for the 6.2 being junk, I do not think so...
I was thinking about the tranny too. When I had its serviced the guy said it was the TH400. I am puzzled by going so fast and need to look into it further. The last gear shift I noticed is at 33 mph. The axle should be stock too. Hmmm?
The truck came from the Utah National Guard and was in...
