Man, I hate to keep repeating myself..........................

I used Centramatics behind my 12-bolts and there is no vibration whatsoever. http://www.centramatic.com/wheel-balancer.rhtml?modelNumber=370-800

I used PVC inserts from Trail Worthy Fab http://www.trailworthyfab.com/Hummer-Wheel-PVC-Insert.html These things were easy to install and pinch the tire bead to each side of the wheel thereby preventing any chance of dismount, even with no air pressure.

"I also use the "factory" transmission to transfer-case rod and the two engine to transmission rods." Hey Rusty - I'm not familiar with those two engine-to-transmission rods. Were those OEM?

Say, did you ever find any 20" wheels? I have decided to part ways with my custom 20" split rims and will make you a deal. I had 5 built by a machine shop several years ago and ran 11:00/20NDT tires for over 200,000 miles and they were smooth as silk. They are 8-bolt and will fit right onto a...

Thanks but no, the device I remember seeing consisted of a metal box which mounted remotely, like on the side of a frame rail, and contained special filtration elements which could be replaced at certain intevals. The box had a sight glass to monitor the "color" of the oil. It removed all of...

Respectfully - Please excuse me if I am out of line, but what does this have to do with a 700R4 Conversion? Is that D.B. Cooper I see over there?

On a more serious note, several years ago I saw an ad somewhere regarding a remote diesel engine oil filter. The normal oil filter was removed and an adapter was permanently screwed back into the same spot. The filtration unit mounted on a frame rail and had a clear sight glass, and also...

I am curious. Since I know nothing about HMMWVs, my question is - are the newer HMMWVs equiped with the 4L80E transmissions? If so, aren't these 4-speed with a parking pawl? If they are, why wouldn't the shifter stuff for one of these later vehicles work with an up-built 700R4?

joeblow - I cannot comment on the fit-up requirements of installing a 700R4 into a HMMWV because I have no experience in HMMWVs. However I do have confidence in the mechanics of installing an up-built 700R4 into a CUCV M1028. It seems to me, if a HMMWV originally had a TH400 installed as OEM...

I don't own a HMMWV, however I do believe I can contribute a few helpful comments to this thread. For the past 7 years I have been completely rebuilding/restoring my 1984 M1028 CUCV pickup. Although I am pretty much finished with the project, I continue to occasionally make performance and...

You may want to consider one of the Derale pans which has the drain plug, but also a bung for a temperature sender as well as heat sink tubes for additional cooling. http://derale.com/products/transmission-pans/cooling-pans

What the hail did he do to deserve such punishment? Doghead please explain so the rest of us won't make the same mistake!

I was wrong. The pump I have is my original vacuum pump which I exchanged with the NOS pump. There was nothing wrong with my original pump, I simply had the NOS pump and swapped it when I did my injection pump rebuild. The original pump only has approximately 13,000 miles on it. You are...

I believe I may have a brand new NOS 6.2 vacume pump in my parts bin. I will check tomorrow and let you know. If so, I am open to a reasonable offer.

Flu, I may indeed be interested. I will PM you with my contact info.

Just had another phone conversation with Jeff at Bostic. He said to use NA injectors on an NA engine and Turbo injectors on a turbo engine, because the injectors are calibrated to the fuel requirements of each version of engine. Makes sense I guess.

If that is indeed the case, it looks like I will need new 6.5 injectors. Only question now is, injectors for NA or turbo (see my revised Post 18 above).

I just spoke via phone with Bosch Technical Service and was informed that the part number for the injectors to fit the 6.2 is 0432217104, and the part number for the 6.5 NA engine is 0432217275, and the part number for the 6.5 turbo is 0432217276. So there is indeed some differences. Do you...
