Alt needs 24v to start its field. Supman is the expert on alts. First thing he always suggest is to jump over 24v from the fuel solinoide to the 24v tap on the voltage regulator.

It will show 24v. Until a load is applied and then not enough amps to turn the engine over.

The awd will not work without the front drive line, without speed restrictions. Without the front diff in also the axle shafts will bounce around and damage a lot of stuff without the carrier to hold them in position.

Yes. I had 2 bad batteries truck wouldn’t start. I rigged it up to run on 2 batteries. Truck started no problem, and didn’t need to charge the batteries first.

Figured since I have both types of aluminum rims on hand.

To clear the air, both hub and nut centered rims with the ctis valve off. The are a 20x10 size as well

I have these and they are a budd bolt pattern and nut centered. Not hub centered like an mrap. I plan on machining a special nut to convert the ctis to work once I get my lathe set up. You could use thes rims with the aluminum rim nuts with no ctis, but the one hole should have a bushing...

Probably would want longer wheel studs when using a spacer.

Guess I should diagnose my new found vibration at medium speed. I think it’s from a tire, but while I’m at it I may as well test both drive shafts, check the alt, check the fan clutch while I mount the a/c drive pully. Glad you made it to the game in the next few weeks if you need any bushings...

Yes the arch for the pins. Nothing I would change but have pink paint on hand so it’s easier to find

I just used the arch on the side and told my buddy I needed to keep that. No need for exact measurements close is all you need.

As requested

Tomorrow when I get home from work, I’ll post many photos and measurements. I lost all the photos of the install process when an sd card crapped the bed. But I did it by feel and by dial measurements. Feel was spot on.

Steve 6x6x6. Is the creator of this method. I asked him all the questions you all ask now, my turn to help. FYI the way mine is cut it needs shorter bolts as well.

You can band saw cut the cover, plasma the cover, what you need is a way to hold the spider in and check the gear lash. If I had my lathe set up I’d cut a cover for you, but I’m a few weeks from making that happen. I had a friend bandsaw mine and he was kind enough to face it in a lathe...

Will sent a wiring diagram with mine. It took a while to match numbers on wires. I’ll see if I can find it in my emails

I have one of suprmans 200 amp kits installed. Yes new brackets, different L bracket, new wires and new protection block. Was a bit of a pain to figure it all out. Afterwards it turned out my bad 100 amp was only due to the maintenance people swapping the pos and neg leads. My guess was to...

Hub tool. Procedure is to install everything and torque this ring down, then feel for backlash on the small hub gears. Ideal is with your fingers just feel ever so slightly the smallest amount of movement. Tight gears are bad, loose gears are bad. Getting the perfect shim pack is the...

Bet that was a nail biting game to watch in the stands!!

Hubs are easier than expected. Just get a hub tool made from an old cover if you can find one. While the valve covers off, how about that fuel screw?
