Mike the important thing to remember is to align the pulleys so your belt will run straight, smooth, and cool. I believe most guys don't even think about this and then wonder why their belts squeal and then break after a short time. When I assembled the front of my P400, I aligned every single...
I had to look back at my photos from 2011. When the ORD shackle flip is installed the rear axle is rotated. This causes the bottom shock mounting tabs, welded on the axle tube, to also rotate and therefore not allow the shock to attach to the top shock mounting stud on the frame. The way I...
It is absolutely paramount that the TV cable is adjusted correctly. Here is a link -

What floor insulation did you use? I plan on adding it to my floor when I install my P400 / 700R4 / NP241.
Looks great, by the way. I used the same floor liner and that heat gun will be your friend.
I wish I had some of those seat covers.
Whenever I see a photo like this it makes me sad. Sad for the truck owner because he doesn’t realize the damage that been caused as a result of his “fun”. And he also doesn’t realize the time, effort, and cost of repairing the damage.
I bought my first 4WD in 1970, a brand new Toyota...
You might want to read my post regarding that Nostalgic A/C. https://www.steelsoldiers.com/threads/kinda-got-carried-away-m1028-rebuild.54469/post-2224882
Hope this helps.
Correction - because there is always one engine revolution of each piston on the compression/combustion stroke which does not require outside air, my calculations were exactly double what is actually needed. At 2000 RPM therefore a volume requirement of air would be almost 220 CFM. This makes...
Today while doodling around on my calculator I began to think about how much fresh air is required for our original 6.2 naturally-aspirated engines to operate (or any engine for that matter). I was reminded from my early high school engine class that all engines (non-turbo) must suck in the air...
Thanks for your reply. The accessory pulls 6 amps constant at 24 volts. I will pull the power from the 24V buss and ground through a relay and fuse. For now, I want to keep the identity of the accessory secret until I make sure my invention will work. If it does, it will revolutionize the...
Thanks for your reply. I would still like to know the maximum amperage constant that each alternator can support. For instance, if I were to run an inverter, smal refrigerator, and headlights all at at the same time. Just need to calculate the amperage draw to make sure the alternators can...
I am considering the addition of a few electrical accessories which will run while my truck is running (switch-activated). The amperage draw will be around 6 amps constant.
Question - what is the amperage production of either alternator at idle? Will the 100-amp-hour alternator replenish...
In regards to those M16 bolts, yes they were cheaper at my local John Deere place. There are some of those on Ebay but whoever is selling them must think they no longer make 'em or something. I think I paid a couple dollars for them at John Deere.
That brace rod which runs from the side of the NP208 to the engine block is GM part #14020856. They are on Ebay all the time. Search np208 brace rod in Ebay Motors. The bolts are usually on there as well, however you can pick these up at a John Deere place new a little cheaper. They are...
