The primary was in place, and when I pulled it I didn't see any water in the housing. It was the secondary and final that didn't get installed. The secondary and final housing weren't terribly clean when I pulled them. Yes the stalling after quick decel/stops was there but nowhere near as bad...

Well it friday I'll take the deuce for a spin, and stop by buddies and do some work on it. Put in some new fuel filters, top up the fluids, etc. in the nice shady barn, His nephew is interested in the truck so I let him help etc. So we putz around get it all back together swing by a flee...

Yep, it was a great little tune you can use with any melody, its got only line that repeats. "Please no crunch....." "Please no crunch......" "Please no crunch......"

Took mine out to pick up a order of steel tube, plate, etc. to make a mount for a 5000lb autocrane and my welder in the bed. Well my DD is a VW rabbit pickup and the guys said "what happened to the green VW?" I replied "I fed it after midnight" Then I stayed out too late late 02:30 I was hoping...

I took it out and got it inspected had to go to 3 stations, even though I explained (its a ex-military truck, registered for 13000/18000lbs, old) and I get there and get a "we can't inspect that" Though the last station did and it cost less than when inspect my VW truck only $58! Then I took...

I finally got the transmission is last night at 11:30 during a thunder storm laying down in the grass that was a wet soggy mess! Got the shafts in today, and found the grass was also a bunch of little poison ivy plants starting to grow in it.... I then got a tarp to lay on and changed the oil in...

Well I finally got down to the truck the other day, and the transmission is out! It only took some used 2x4's and a pile of deck screws and a harbor freight chain hoist. Easiest transmission pull I've ever done, no swearing, no heaving, no trying to bench press a and wondering if its going to...

The ford leaf is actually upside down, you cant see in in the picture but is is slightly curved, when I was mocking it up and not taking pictures it seemed to match the curve of the bottom leaf while not exact but close. Well if it evens up the packs that is what I'm looking for, it I have to...

Got my new transmission physically to the truck, never said I got it in.... thats for another day Then started looking at the springs I got for the 4x4 mod and the bottom leaf on one pack it broke :( But then I just tore down a set of ford leafs and strangely enough the ford leaf was just as...

That is a great idea for a front crane! The mini knuckle boom in the bed, and crane up front!

Well I'll see how thick the clutch disc is if I can get down there today and make a hoist to help pull the transmission. Well that is after I throw all the future engineers of america out of lab for waiting till the week before finals to start there capstone projects.

When you say housing mods? do you mean to the rear main seal etc? Well I got the pallet with the new to me 3053a! Getting my skidsteer started was a bit of a problem but, once the wisconsin engine gets running my new holland L425 does the work. Got it back to the house got the pallet unloaded...

Well going to get pull out trans very soon, along with some front leafs to single out the rear. Now its a debate if I want to put in a new clutch disc and 3 arm pressure plate while I have the trans out.

Well needless to say this transmission is dead I might be able to splice 2 or 3 together to make a working unit. I don't think there is a single gear except first and reverse that is not missing teeth. From looking at it I see the 4th/5th syncro is broken, and the pins are in the bottom of the...

Well I finally have a day to go down and look at it, now that its down pouring and I'll get soaked.... But I'm packing up sockets and tools anybody know the size socket for the transmission output flange nut? I'm looking at pictures I'm guessing 1 1/8" or 1 1/4"

the warranty expired some time in the 1970's And I dont think GSA auctions is going to issue the elusive 50year extended warranty :)

That sound like exactly what happen other than I was shifting into 4th. I'll see if I can get down there after work tomorrow with a tool kit and pull the top cover. Hopefully it is just the bearing retainer. I'm thinking does the rear output bearing sit flush with the case? its out about 3/16 of...

I limped it back so I dont think the output shaft snapped unless is was moving the deuce through friction of the broken pieces. I'll have to see if I can get down there with a tool set this week after work and pull the cover. But I'll still have to find a replacement for that tail section.

I had it towed to the lot, the HH needed a new button retainer.

Blew out transmission (yep blew it up) Well I just got my plate and registration so it time to drive this deuce for the first time!, and I'm going down the road I shift into forth and pop and I cant shift well I'm grinding gears! I think I must have not gotten it in gear, clutch etc I get over...
