Finalized my new gauge panel design and got the metal cut and formed to shape.

After 5 years in the process, the P400 / 700R4 / NP241 is complete and ready to go in the truck. I have decided to wait until a little cooler weather to start the swap-process because my shop/warehouse has no windows and it's like working in an oven during the summertime, even with the overhead...

Thanks for that. I think I am beginning to grasp the theory now. So in your opinion, would your circuit design replicate their OEM circuit, but increase CCA?

Would this work?

Carry an eye-dropper. One drop of pure non-scented bleach per gallon of water. Been doing this for years on my pack-in trips in the rockies. Keep the water out of direct sunlight and in cool storage. By the way, those storage cabinets are "cool". That Waterlox stuff is great. The beauty...

You might consider speaking with Tom Woods in Utah. He may provide an opinion on the Cardan. I’ve purchased all my driveshafts from him for years and never had an issue.

I’d sure like to know what those options are. Any advice or suggestions you can provide will be appreciated.

Well, I guess my bubble has burst. I sure did want to increase battery and amperage storage. I wish there was some way to accomplish this, but maybe not. I stand corrected and appreciate the lesson.

Mike what about the possibility of running a double Cardan at the top? I’ve never done this before so I don’t know. Are those Cardan joints rated for continuous duty?

Guys, the 24-volts at the buss bar is produced by 2 12-volt batteries wired together in Series. For the back battery, more than 1 battery can be wired together in Parallel to maintain 12-volts while increasing the amperage by the sum of the Parallel batteries. As long as the output to the buss...

Let me get into it after my new engine, tranny, and TC have been installed and I will photo document everything in my rebuild thread. That’s when I will be setting up the system. But for your information, the 24-volt Blue Sea panel will be fed from the 24-volt buss bar on the firewall right...

Marcus - regarding the new design battery tray, yes I plan to include thick rubber isolation pads between the support legs and frame. Similar to a rubber transmission mount. In fact I may even explore using a couple of new transmission mounts so the new design will be easily duplicated for...

Hey Curt - I am of the strong opinion that your squealing belts are caused by a misalignment of the alternator pulleys to the water pump pulley. You can usually sight the belt to see if there is a slight bend in it as it crosses over the pulleys. Take a look at this with a good light and let us...

Marcus - no problem. No offense. Yeah I agree with you, there are guys out there that will buy into anything they read on some of they other forums. I am a member on a couple and you wouldn’t believe some of the stupid preppy questions I get. I used to try to respond but got tired of all the...

Marcus - thanks for your reply. I was kinda waiting for you to chime in. Everything you stated in your post is true. And while I appreciate and agree with your message, I am a little disappointed in your method of delivery, which came across as somewhat arrogant. Regardless, I will...

Yes that is my thinking also,to forego the built in controller in favor of a probe switch in my HMMWV crossover.

The original pump in my M1028 with 12,338 miles was a DB2829 4521. I’m pretty sure it had not been replaced.

I believe I have found the fan. Flex-A-Lite Model 104812 is a 24-volt which moves 3,300 cfm and has an electronic controller. I will continue looking to see if I find ay other 24-volt possibilities...

Yeah I have that same setup that Leroy is offering, however I purchased my FlowKooler water pump directly from FlowKooler and my high-volume fan directly from Derale. My new clutch is NOS GM. After I thought about it and realized that the OEM fan and clutch robs horsepower, it was a no-brainer...

Ok I have made the decision to remove my brand new Derale fan and clutch and go with an electric fan instead. I’ve watched several videos including this very informative one at https://www.holley.com/blog/post/how_to_choose_an_electric_radiator_fan/ I have concluded that I want a pull-through...
