    Another potential transmission leak on the stock CUCV. The kick down switch. It is sealed with an O ring. 3 prongs hold it in the case. The transmission pan must be off to gain access. O ring And just a parting shot of the transfer case output shaft with the splined rubber that I think is a...

    As you have already discovered it has a nylon bushing that presses an O ring into the sector rod hole. Very easy to get out with the selector rod removed. Not so easy with it still in place. I can't imagine trying it with the transfer case in the truck. Remove it save the violence and cursing...

    This is the magnet that was in the transfer case. And by the way, this episode on ! 81 was back in the late 1990's and 3 AM. I wanted to show you also that if you are changing O rings you may as well change the front out put flange seal. This transfer case is still full of lots of great parts...

    OK I am back from the operating room. I have lots of valuable information about seals and failures of the TH400 and NP208. The transmission and transfer case I dissected was destroyed during a front drive shaft CV joint lockup at highway speed. The driveshaft locked up because I just bought the...

    Keep in mind a new seal is not a guarantee of no leak. The shaft could be grooved from sand and dirt cutting into it. I would suggest that you get a visual on the seal you have and remove it and seat the new seal a bit deeper or shallower. Clean the area thoroughly before and after removal. Good...

    You do know that clip in the frame was placed there to hold the wiring harness in place. I just noticed that the pictures show the harness unattached to the clips.

    CUCVRUS Repair Projects

    I guess now I seen that. I bought brand new certified Conrail ties and used them. I seen railroad ties that are over 100 years old. After thought is they are setting on a stone grade and never have a chance to soak up water with the sun shining on them everyday. I can only hope the remaining 3...

    CUCVRUS Repair Projects

    Things are really hot and dry here. I saw a groundhog sneaking around and drinking water out of the chicken feeder and then it was eating the scratch grain. It was 94* in the barn semi-shaded. I worked on my Honda tractor. This is a well-built machine that has served me well for the past 30...

    CUCVRUS Repair Projects

    Yesterday I thought I went thru the desert on a horse with no name. I have a lot of work to do on many projects and the sun was a killer yesterday. I started on a repair project outside and it was in full sun. I thought it was a 1/2 hour - hour job. I worked several hours on it showered and...

    as long as you don't gouge the spindle. Seems crude but in a pinch I guess it works if you say so.

    m1009 upper rear shock mounts

    Go back to rough country and ask them that question. Most stock shocks come with the correct mounts and frame studs. Maybe you need to remove the studs from the stock shocks and use them. I am sure they are not worn out. That lift kit stuff is mostly imported garbage that is put on trucks as an...

    Spindle bearings part numbers

    It does not have a side preference. Like I said getting the old one out is harder than putting the new one in. And keep in mind you can get by with somethings just by a good cleaning and a good application of grease. I fixed front axles at 0300 many times and had no parts but used and grease...

    Electrical issues

    The batteries need load tested. This is a chart showing what a battery condition is. And this indicates after being load tested. Good Luck. I know a lot of people don't like it when I say the battery is bad even with a 12 volt reading. It is the amperage that does the trick. Good Luck.
