    blew fan clutch hose

    Parker 831 doesn't meet the temperature spec. 836 is a reasonable general purpose alternate to the gates # I provided at first glance... As for my promised follow-up post the hose that goes from the output of the Cadillac valve to the Fan shroud I used gates 4C5C which meets up to all the...

    blew fan clutch hose

    Year+ too late, but in the interest of good information I'll throw in $0.02 on this parade... HMMWV power steering return hose 6490610019 is similar to J189 spec, but has a slightly extended thermal rating of +150 deg. C on the high end.

    Deep Water Fording DWF 4L80 Which Dipstick?

    Can anyone advise the proper dipstick and tube combination for DWF install on a 4L80? The M1114/M1151 TM is incorrect for these. The tube and stick combo as specified are not a matched set and are not compatible. Trying to avoid purchasing one of everything until I get it right. Thanks in...

    M998 12k Axle Conv. Issues

    Thanks for the follow up. RE moving the diff's, So new X-members and brackets like 86humv mentioned? Do the diff's need to move far enough that driveshafts need shortening?

    M998 12k Axle Conv. Issues

    Thanks for the speedy replies and comments. I have all the parts for the conversion otherwise so I am 90% good-to-go. Let me better explain myself on the 12k halfshaft predicament... For all the reasons mentioned (availability/price) I picked up mostly ECV axles instead of the RCSK17028-x...

    M998 12k Axle Conv. Issues

    Hi guys I've been lurking on the forum a while. Finally found the courage to field a couple questions. I'm rebuilding a 93 M998 and moving from a new cooling system onto 12k axles/brakes/ball joints/steering. Have a few concerns: 1) Buying axles I didn't distinguish between ECV axles (for...
