Just measure them.
If the dang hole is approximately 1/2” across, then it is 1/4” NPT. If the hole is approximately 5/8” across, then it is 3/8” NPT. If the hole is approximately 3/4” across, then it is 1/2” NPT. I could go in and on. Got it?
I am currently running new BFG 37's on completely refurbished 12-bolt wheels with new O-rings and Trail-Worthy-Fab's PVC inserts (see my avatar). No run-flats. I am using CentroMatic balancers, consisting of steel balls rotating in a tube. These seem to work better than the Balance Masters...
You don't need to be a welder. There are threaded bungs available which have a nut and a washer on both sides. All you have to do is drill a hole in the pan and tighten the nut on both sides. Easy peasy.
I am confused. Why are you wanting to measure your oil temperature when oil pressure is more important? The very first gauges to be considered are oil pressure and water temperature. These are of paramount importance for monitoring normal engine functions. After oil pressure and water...
That plug above the oil filter is a 3/8" NPT. In my opinion, that is not an ideal place to install an oil temperature sensor, because there is no oil flow there. The best place to measure the temperature of the oil in in the oil pan. To install a temperature probe in the pan, you would need...
The sensor with the 2 wires is the glow plug controller sensor. The big thing over behind the head is the oil pressure idiot lite switch. Leave the glow plug switch alone, it is required to operate the controller card correctly. You could install a temperature gauge sensor directly across in...
The way the OEM yoke flange is designed and because of its releationship to the transfer case, there's not a good way to thoroughly clean the tight space where the seal meets the yoke shaft. When you think about it, the front transfer case yoke is always facing forward, so it is always getting...
For those of you following my rebuild thread, you may know that I have recently purchased a completely rebuilt NP241c transfer case from Mark Bendler at Kodiak Truck in Wisconsin. Since my P400 engine and Bowtie 700R4 transmission are still on the cradle, I decided to go ahead and mount the...
Hey Cruz - did you speak with Chris Gardner at Bowtie regarding the manual lock-up switch? I believe those long inclines pulling your heavy load in 3rd gear (unlocked) is probably your overheating issue. Just my 2 cents.
I want to assemble a fuse repair kit to keep in the truck with spare fusible links. Does anybody know the location in the TMs of a list of the fusible links and their size?
Yes I have searched until my eyes are crossed (or more crossed than they were). Thanks in advance for replies.
OK I got the new JB Fabrications cable shifter temporarily installed to make sure everything worked the way I wanted it to. I fabricated a temporary wooden platform and attached it to the NP241 so that the shifter handle is positioned in the approximate location that it will be after the P400...
That is going to be nice. Good design.
I am doing something similar but different - if that makes sense. I have designed and fabricated a dash-mounted gauge cluster pod which will mount under the dash pad between the radio delete plate and dash door. This will completely cover the ashtray...
