Well at least is wasn't owned by a fire or police department...those guys are getting paid to mess it up! Sounds like it may not have been done on the 12v conversion but may have had a wiring issue which then spawned a 12v conversion thinking it was going to fix the problem only to find out...

That must be a pleasure to drive with a 5 speed and all that insulation. I'm rocking a TH400 and bare metal floors. I swear I am going deaf... Sent from my Moto G (5) Plus using Tapatalk

I think getting replacement parts for any of those is difficult since they are either really old architecture like the the first one you posted or a custom aftermarket one. If I had to do it I'd go aftermarket. Most likely they are based on a common off the shelf part that you just need to find...

What kind of kit are you using? My friend wants to do an EFI conversion on his 3.5 Land Rover but he is hesitant to use the new all in one kits. Sent from my Moto G (5) Plus using Tapatalk

I will say that if you don't want AC or don't care to find the elusive van bracket for the compressor, the 8.1 is just as cheap of not cheaper to swap. Especially if your truck is already a big block. But anything LS is probably the best you can get for the money. I'm not sure I understand...

I don't think you can go wrong with an LS for pretty much every reason. You can play the game of what happens if... Well if your injection pump solenoid fails or an LS needs a throttle position sensor. Let me know which one you can have in your hand first. I think the other part of the...

I'm skeptical that a pulley being 1/16" off is causing a strum. A tractor grass deck rolls 90 degree turns without issues. V belts are pretty resilient to misaligent. If I am guessing here it is just low rpm harmonics combined with a long distance on the non tension side of the belt returning...

Yeah...totally losing sleep tonight. Good luck with your bias ply tires or non directional tread rubber bands. Sent from my Moto G (5) Plus using Tapatalk

Right but your get what you pay for. I guarantee that tire has about as much traction as an old non directional military tire. Plus it's bias ply so you will never have a good ride. Sure you may need to spend a few bucks more but what you are advocating is spend $250 on a crap tire or maybe...

I wouldn't spend a dime on a bias ply. Plenty of reasonably priced alternatives and you can always go with a retread if money is that big of a concern. $270 will get you a 315/75/16 Duratrac and I like mine. You could go for retread for under $200. Sent from my Moto G (5) Plus using Tapatalk

Seems overpriced for what it is... Sent from my SM-T380 using Tapatalk

Years ago my buddy had an old 4Runner and it made absolutely nothing for heat. You always start to see if you have hot hoses getting to the heater core. The yotas have a hot water valve on the firewall that get gummy and stick. Hoses were boiling hot and the heater blend door was definitely...

Your noise happens as soon as you start lifting off of the pedal which means the input shaft and countershaft spin up. I'd make sure the noise isnt getting louder over time. Probably wouldn't sweat it myself. These new Venture Transmissions are notorious for rattling. I had a Jeep with an NV...

I am no NV4500 expert but that is internal noise and definitely not the throwout. My guess is input or countershaft bearing. I do know and also was stated that the NV4500 is a noisy girl. Sent from my Moto G (5) Plus using Tapatalk

I guess I'll be the first to ask...what is the budget? My first step would be to junk the TH400 for something like a 4L80 if you want to stay auto or have a desire to keep up with everyone else on the road. Since you don't want to stay diesel that eliminates that lineup. I have to say...

It sounds like maybe your heater core is plugged because my stock M1031 heater will melt you out of the cab once the engine is warm. I'd consider back flushing it with a hose before moving forward. If you feel like it is still not enough, you can always look at an auxiliary heater. Probably...

That's a great one. I used to play that on the first day of automatic transmission class. Kids would get very scared. Sent from my Moto G (5) Plus using Tapatalk

Cool...good luck with your 30 year Detroit diesel bro. You and the 6.2 love posse can keep tounging each other now. Sent from my Moto G (5) Plus using Tapatalk

Look, I'm not trying to troll your thread. In think you missed my point. You're investing money into an old underperforming plastform with questionable reliabilty. I'm advocating that upgrading it to overdrive, turbo, etc. is wasting money because a better option exists. It's buy once cry once...
