What fluid are you using? Correct fluid is dexron 3 atf which is pink. Bad hydroboost = hard brake pedal with no power assist.

Ditto Holds the adjustment rod out of the way. Mine was broken also......

Can you share what materials -lights/switches/cabling/housings you used? Looks very clean & oe.

All the mentioned parts plus yellow controller (usually on ebay) or black ( warn for electric) if you reverse the wiring, 2 longer lower control arm bolts, wiring harness. Mile marker did sell me the parts I was missing directly. I can't recall size off hand but look on my thread for a...

I believe this has the Sheppard gear not the common Saginaw gear and parts are challenging.

When you hear the whine, can you turn the wheels easily? If not, I suspect 2 problems. A. Power stg pump going bad causing the whine if fluid level is ok and belt not slipping/ok. B. Steering gear is leaking. Pitman arm seal are common to give out / leak especially on a vehichle that has sat up...

Standard Ignition makes a few different models that Rock or O'reilly can get for you. See this link and then you can click on each part number to get specifics. They were real common maybe 60-90's but not used in modern cars...

Check fuel line. Rubber hose notorious for degrading and sucking in air.

Yes. The debate has been settled in many many threads on here......

cool, Thanks for the info. I will order some when I run out of my Permatex products. If Dirko likes high humidity, well that variable I can guarantee in the Banana Republic :)

Check the gasket on the oe. Does it have 4 tabs on the sides or 2 front back as those are 2 different caps? Both styles should be available aftermarket gm.

Are we talking the boot puffed up or the joint literally separated? If it came apart, go buy a lottery ticket as you just might have saved your life if that failed at any speed... Definitely can not be driven with separated ball joint. You do have the correct procedure. Just fill till oozes...

These would typically be mounted on the floor of the bed close to the wall of the fender with I think one footman loop on floor and one on fender side with a strap that snaps closed. I believe only some models of armament carriers slant backs got them standard equipment.

The new style Ball joints are available for 5 tons but I do not recall seeing them for deuces recently. I do not think they are the same.

I would recommend when you replace tires to get smaller and get that center of gravity lowered. That is a lot of weight and easy to rollover. Not sure those totes have baffles.

Look at the tm to get the part numbers and cross over. I suspect it is dexter. Not sure you are going to get a complete assembly, might have to piece together. Brake Shoes, Wheel cyl, and hardware kit should be readily available. Does the brake drum go on correctly? I suspect it was robbed...
