Perfect! ;) you should be fine!

Correct on both questions, you did have to drive the seal into the housing with a seal driver, or hammer correct? It didn't just drop into place in the hole?

Mike, that really looks okay to me.....As long as the nut is tight and won't back off, you should be fine. BTW If anything, the shaft will move back into the housing when the nut is removed.

Re: RE: Re: RE: Grrr Toploader 4 speed with a granny gear, pretty stout unit.

RE: Re: RE: Grrr Alot easier to put another TH400 in, and cheaper. I've done a Manual to Auto converision on a 79 K10 pickup, it was a PITA, the hard part will be rounding up all the little things you need to do the conversion.....

Crash, Was the guy you bought the truck a member of SS?, I had a guy come look at one of my M35's awhile back and he said he had a gasser up in northern NM or CO that he had to get rid of before he'd be in the market for another truck. Ed

Thats what I said in a previous post......I also said I've done it this way and it worked, It's up to him. But it sounds like he doesn't have much time...... I've done alot of things to "make something work" that aren't recommended, it's a matter he will have to decide for himself.

No, it should be driven into the housing and should only come out in the shape of the old one you pulled out with the screwdriver. The only thing that holds that seal in is the interference fit between it and the axle housing...

Mike, the yoke should move freely when the nut is retorqued, dont worry about the gap, as long as the nut is tight and the yoke will move by hand. Make sure you have the correct seal, there should be a number on the old one. Or use the one you have there in the pic, as long as it fits the...

It preloads the pinion bearings, the only way to get to it is to remove the carrier (ringgear) Usually when that seal starts leaking the pinion bearings are shot, or the pinion nut backed off, either way, it's a PITA...... Not saying its the "right" way, but I have replaced that seal...

Re: RE: Grrr Mike, I found it no problem, type in Grrr, search all terms....... :P

There's more than one?! :shock:

Re: 24 volt glow plugs ?? Yes, 24 volts is applied to the gp's, then its reduced via the resistors on the firewall. Thats why, when I swapped in the 60G's I bypassed the resistors, and applied 12 volts only to the gp"s

Re: RE: M1028 Trans switch from TH400 to 4L80E I have a 700R4 from Bowtie, very good unit, installed behind a 400hp BB chevy in a 78 K10, about 5 yrs so far.

RE: Re: RE: Napa return fuel lines I'm told the 60g's are self limiting, which eliminates the balloning tips/broken off tips. FWIW Somone correct me if I'm wrong.

I have used the loading docks at Santa Fe multiple times. There have been many post's regarding Dave Skophammer at Barstow, If he wanted to accomodate he would. In my dealings with him he has chosen to be difficult. He is more concerned with catering to dealers who buy there all the time, rather...

Re: RE: Napa return fuel lines The 60G's are 12 volt, the Wellmans are 24, I bypassed my firewall resistors with a wire to supply 12 volts only, and run 60G's in my 1008.

Dorks like that are the ones who inspire the Government to enact more laws........... I say, "YOU, WITH THE FRONT LIFT BLOCKS, OUT OF THE GENE POOL!!!!!........

If you have the digital light switch it will draw a bit of current when first connected, but should not be a constant draw.

Congrats Kevin! No problems with the CHP? Ed
