    Tow bar a civvy Pick Up

    With an automatic, even 50 miles at speed is too much. That trans should never be turning with the engine off if you want to keep it working long term. Put the xfer case in neutral or just simply pull the drive shaft.

    NOS Airpack

    OD Iron sells new ones for $367.50 plus shipping. At the same time, I bought a used air-pak for $10 plus shipping. So, it's a large field. Being that they are NOS, you might want to factor in the cost of new production seals... I am sure many here would be interested in them if you do get...

    Bearing Question

    IMO, I wouldn't do that. The axle wasn't designed for that style of lubrication....some non-powered axles are like that. For the bearings to be lubed by the gear oil, it needs, as you say, a bath of oil. It wouldn't get enough gear lube to the bearings. Many modern axle designs require the...

    Voltage problem?

    That regulator fits the Prestolite 60 amp alternator....The same for the L/N? I thought they were different designs? That's a good deal for one.

    How to make a M911 do highway speeds?

    Finally, an on topic post to this question. Lee has a great point. In this case, it would be best to keep the axles stock. You need to look at transmission or xfer case modifications for better speed. This is suppose to be a technical forum! It seems some feel your truck is theirs...

    Voltage problem?

    Don't trust that dash gauge. Use a multimeter to check the charging voltage.

    2nd gear starts??

    Re: RE: 2nd gear This is simply operator error. Just because someone can't shift correctly, doesn't make the correct procedure "bad for the transmission".
