    M923 Transmission to Transfer case U-Joint sweet spot

    You could buy adapter for grease gun that looks like adapter that pumps up basketballs footballs,etc... You just have to hit the ball in the fitting than instead of covering whole fitting with grease gun end. My 2 cent

    M923A1 Allison Hard downshift into 1st

    The reason switching to dexon 3 from motor oil helps is dexon has a friction modafier in it. That allows the clutches or bands to slip a little before they engage. In common words it cushion engagement some and that's fine when you are unload but when you are fully load(like military use the...

    If you want more traction. It's time for new tires michlien or goodyears. Or some will say chains or air down the tires some. Someone has also took a tread regroover and cut grooves in the ndt tread pattern. Just my two cents. It looks like you are having fun anyway. You can send some down to Pa...

    mufflers

    Just my 2 cents but the moroso racing bullet are just like glasspacks. If you want something to sound different than glasspacks . I would go with a chamber muffler like a flowmaster 40 series, or a knock off to them. Had a buddy that had a 86 civy 1 ton 6.2 4spd manual put knock off flowmaster...

    Reommend change all fluids

    I would go through and change all the fluids and filter. It's peace of mind and a good start point for you to keep tract of it. Plus you don't know how long it been seating or serviced last. I would also drain fuel tank and flush it. And seen you are in there check the rubber hose on the fuel...

    engine shut down problem

    It sound to me that the engine stop cable is screwed up or something in the injection pump is screwed up causing the cable to move and shutting down the truck. That what I got out of it.

    POS transmission

    I believe 73m819 is correct. I believe must gears are pressed on fitted in manual trans. If anything you should of put shaft in freezer and warmed up the gear some. That would of giving you enough clearance to get gear on the shaft. When everything went back to room temp it would of tightened...
