    DOT 5 water contamination

    Yes, it appears to be only a few drops in there... But it all depends how much the brakes have been applied, during/after that rain. If water got all the way into the wheel cylinders you won't get it out via a common bleeding procedure. (DOT5 has a slightly lower density than water..) You may...

    Is this wheel unusable?

    Sure enough that wheel needs to be scrapped! (some of the holes are so big that the lug nuts will bottom out long before tightening the wheel) I think you should be able to find a good-used (paired) 24-bolt wheel, for a reasonable price. If not, and being just for a spare, I would use a 12-bolt...

    VP Racing lubricant for trans and T case?

    To me that seems to be an oil for hydraulics and not so much for mechanical transmissions. For your part of the world (and climate) any known brand SAE 80W-90 mineral gear oil will work fine. And don't worry so much about your "yellow metals"...

    Sprag Transfer Case

    Please keep in mind that we are talking about the Deuce's sprag T-cases (model T-136-21). These don't have an air cylinder; both sprag clutches are shifted mechanically, 100%.

    Where to buy new harmonic balancer

    Not that much... Problem is, you'll have to do a lot of disassembling before you can replace the 6.2 sprocket with this other one. If you only wanted to install a new HB I may be able to get you the thickness of the spacer needed.

    Where to buy new harmonic balancer

    One possible alternative which has worked well for me: 6.5L balancers + 6.5L timing crank sprockets are cheap and readily available. Or use the balancer alone and have a spacer made to fill the gap. https://www.rockauto.com/en/moreinfo.php?pk=6438&cc=1440751&pt=5723&jsn=790&jsn=790...

    Anyone recognize this sound

    Ah... you guys are right, something is loose down there. Just now I saw it, was looking at the wrong pulley.

    Anyone recognize this sound

    I watched it repeatedly and can't see any abnormal movement there- other than the camera shifting its position/angle.

    Warn 27270 winch - anyone know how the controller is wired? 1986 M1038

    Here are a few more examples of how it's all wired when the control box has 4 solenoids and no OLI (overload interrupter, AKA thermal switch) and/or ECL (electronic current limiter).... Remote switches normally have 3 wires: WHITE goes directly to the large terminal coming from BAT (+); GREEN...
