Just spoke with the technical guy at PSE and he directed me to their item SP 1400, which is a brand-new USA-made pump without the reservoir to rebuild my unit. It seems the PSE unit is a new Delphi pump which fits inside my reservoir. So I think I'm leaning in this direction. Never rebuilt a...
I'm coming down the home stretch on my P400 build and want to install a new power steering pump in place of the old tired 1984 model. Can anybody recommend an American-made pump? After spending all this cash on the engine and transmission, I just cannot bring myself to install a cheap Chinese...
Hey Rusty - If that CUCV is hard on your back, why not consider changing the seats? I had lumbar fusion surgery in 2011, and after recovery, I couldn't hardly endure the pain to sit on that factory bench. I seriously considered selling the truck because there was just no way I could be...
Over the past 50 years I have had several GM trucks with front winches, all of them mounted on big heavy ugly aftermarket bumpers. On my bucket list is to have a behind-the-bumper 24-volt electric, and power it from the 24V cable to the slave outlet. I envision mounting the winch between the...
I was in the John Deere place a while back picking up some parts for my mower and saw that they offer those clamps in numerous sizes. Probably because tractors have hydraulic lines running everywhere. There were boxes of different sizes on the shelf. Nice plated clamps with the rubber insert. So...
My M1028 came from a National Guard Base in Arizona stenciled "JP8 or Diesel". When I repainted it I reproduced the stencil exactly like it came from the base.
Hmmmmm.... the bolts to hold my dust cover onto my K-case 700R4 were metric M10-1.5. At first I thought they were 7/16-14 SAE and these would start and turn for a few revolutions but then become thread-bound. The M10-1.5 metric bolts were correct. In addition, the bolts holding the transmission...
Hold on there Matt. Before you go trashing the 700R4, maybe you should do a little research. The 700R4 can indeed be built strong. In fact, the 700R4 can be reliably built to handle any power a 6.2 or 6.5 can dish out. And in many ways, the 700R4 is superior to a 4L80 due to its lower...
You will need the special GM 700R4 TV cable bracket that bolts to the rear of the drivers side 6.2/6.5 head and connects the 700R4 transmission to the IP throttle. I just installed mine a few weeks ago and posted photos on my rebuild thread. This bracket has been out of production for 25 years...
Bowtie Overdrives will build a K-case 700R4 with the correct output shaft already installed. Level 2 rated at 450 hp. Call Chris Gardner there and tell him what you want. I just bolted mine behind my P400 and it is slick. Photos toward the end of my rebuild thread.
