Good to here it started and ran ok. Now just work out the bugs.

Just bite the bullet and do it all while you're in there. Then better driving!

These u joints need to be the spicer hardened kind without grease zerts. They will last a lot long than the cheap ones with grease zerts.

Welcome from western OK!

Be careful about running over those little turtle bottom cars that you don't always see in a truck this big. I have heard this is hard on turn signals and brake lights!

I really appreciate a helpful post like this one. This is what Steel Soldiers is all about!!

I would say some one installed a 12 volt starter by mistake.

This looks like a short cut to me. Small block 350's have the same motor mounts and the engine side bracket has holes in it not notches. Yes you have to remove starter to remove motor mount bolt but that is no big deal. I want my motors securely fastened with the bolt thru both mount holes.

In post 15 your picture of your starter shows part numbers Delco 336-1900 or GM 19136209. Both these numbers correspond to a 12 volt starter. I would bet that is why your starter broke(blew up) and looks like it does now. You need to buy a 24 volt starter if you have an original 24 volt system...

Are you going to stay with the 12 volt system you have now or change back to 24 volt?

Do not try to run without a starter brace!!!

Ok, now you know it has the starter brace. Be sure and reinstall it along with both starter bolts NEW. I would look for a remand AC DELCO starter like you took off or take the one you took off to a reputable starter repair shop and let them go thru it and check it out. If relay under dash stuck...

There is a difference in ignition switches for a non tilt column like our cucv's and a tilt column. Make sure it is for a non tilt column. I would also make sure all wires at the starter are tight and the connections in good shape. Also check the connections on the 12 volt diamond on the...

I would take the starter off and see if the fly wheel will turn. Does it have the starter brace on the back of the starter to block?

What amazes me is some hands at tire shops do not know this simple fact. I have seen them mount them together instead of 180 degrees apart. When they do I ask them to check pressure on the inside tire. Then it becomes a problem all of a sudden!

Hey I bet if you check inside dual air pressure you will wish that odd shape hole was bigger!

Welcome from Western Oklahoma and a special THANK YOU for your service to our country!

Rustystud you should of known there wasn't anything wrong with that tranny because you had remand it yourself! You know your work is good!!

I use power service in my cucv's and tractors every time I fill up year around. With ulsd it needs lubrication all the time not just once every few tanks. Buy clean fuel, keep it clean, and add some form of proven lubrication additive!

But you might want to watch out for parts made in Taiwan,Texas and China,Colorado!!
