How many do you want?

When I installed my winch, there is a bunch of unused connectors along the valve and PTO harness. That is where you should look.

I had an underdrive behind a 460 with a C6. Towing a trailer that weighed about $16,000 lb. In the western part of the United States there are some very steep passes. I never had any trouble with it. Never broke anything and it worked great.

I installed one on my 1078, was no big deal. Powered off the 12 volt lug in the PDP with a 20 amp circuit breaker, tapped into the brake light circuit to trigger the brake control. Ran a 12 gauge wire back to the trailer socket, used a Napa adapter for plug from commercial style to RV style...

I think you were the one that told me that before. I would like to see the insides of the high pinion. What does it use for ring and pinion, I would assume it is different in some way?

I understand, I am going to borrow the ones that Will Sands has swapped out on his truck. That way I can get them all ready to go without disabling my truck. Just a thought, you might reach out to Alex Wilson about what is required to do your high pinion?

I don't think it would be all that difficult. A good 1" tire gun will get the pinion nut off. If you have done any gears with a shimmed pinion cage, like a 14 bolt Chevy, you will do just fine. The ring gear is puny at 11", so not much bigger than an old Chevy which is 10.5! Sorry, but at my...

He is such a busy guy now that he got a job at Globetrekker

I would look in the installed pump before you replace it, you might get lucky?

I don't think I want to listen to all of the experts telling me I am doing it wrong. I have been doing this work for nearly 50 years, I have done many gear sets with the only failure being one time I replaced a set of 3:73 gears, only to find out they were mismarked. The were actually 4:10 and I...

Those Stanadyne pumps tend to stick the metering valve when they have been sitting a few years. Sometimes all you have to do is remove the pump cover and move it a few times to free it up. There are lots of YouTube videos that will guide you. The overhaul gasket/seal kit is about 65$.

3:07 gears! The locker will be here in a week or so.

Yes. Make sure you are using the correct fittings, they should have a DOT stamped on them.

Caution Do not substitute plastic DOT tubing for air brake hose! It is not designed for flexible applications and will brake at the connections. That is why rubber hoses were used in the first place. Any truck parts store can supply them.

Ronmar Any of this seem familiar? Like the VIM I fought on Phil's truck!

Measures at 7/16"

I seem to remember 13000 on the last wrap, 11000 on the outside layer. There is supposed to be 305 feet, I have not measured mine but it approximates 300 feet.

When there is snow on the roads, my truck works best when parked in the barn. Nice and snug, dry and kinda warm.
