it is going to be a couple days before I can get started but to be safe I am going to pull the valve covers and check the rockers. I don't want to run it much with a known noise issue so I decided not to start it back up and run through the injectors. right when the noise started I got a...

two steps forward one large one backwards. got all leaks done except valve cover and got that down to a small seep. going to take it for its first drive today and while doing its warm up, something happened and it developed a knock and a little smoke. not sure where to start. sounds like a...

replacements have metal clips at the ends of the cups to hold them in. I don't have the part numbers for the new ones. someone else here that has done a recent replacement may be able to help with part numbers.

I got all the lines done. I am going to get a 180 degree connection for the oil cooler so I can get the oil cooler lines to run next to my BO light. the hose ends work great on the radiator. you have to cut the brass inserts down because the hole is to small inside the radiator for the stem...

100% sure the joint can be replaced. the original joints were installed with a plastic pins https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=CR1qqLo6XKA see video replacements have clips

if the shop/guy cannot remove a factory u-joint, ask him what machine he is going to use to balance the shaft after he lengthens it. as posted you have to heat them. I would suggest finding a real driveshaft shop....... sorry is see you are not in the states so a shop may not be an option...

find another shop. all the joints can be replaced.

it can be done that way, my tranny is plumed that way. I will mostly be running in the heat and not the cool so I wanted to use both to get max cooling of the oil. I will get some reheat in winter if needed. The second reason is that I can carry two 1/2 npt plugs and if I have a cooler...

plumbing almost complete I was able to get a little more work done. All the oil lines are done with the exception of the hose ends at the radiator oil cooler I am still waiting on those. They show a 3-15 ship date. I have the hose looped for now. I am using Leroy diesel oil lines and the oil...

chaski, what did you do at the radiator. are you still using the stock metal lines or are you connected at the radiator?

they are catch can vents with roll over check valves. one is for my transfer case and the other is for my other transfer case (ord magnum box) I have two more coming(that is why plat is large). one will be for the tranny and the other for front and rear differential vents. first purchased for...

attached are current progress pics of getting it back together. I now need to complete oil cooler lines. Tranny lines and hydraulic lines are all complete. you can see in the one pic where I am building the T for the to oil coolers. The fittings for the radiator oil cooler only come in -8 hose...

I confirmed with spectra, the threads are 3/4 - 18 for the oil cooler connection. the brass inserts with the o rings are needed to convert it to an inverted flare. searching the web for every option, summit has the parts. https://www.summitracing.com/parts/aer-fbm1145 the inserts are also at...

get it rebuilt in about two days at: http://a-alternator.com/ $245 they are heavy and will cost a lot to ship. this place is a short drive from me but Houston is a big place They did both of mine with no issues. one was next day turn around the second took two days.

LMC, classic auto and rock auto are good online stores.

yes I think that is my metric option. if I could find the right threads and size, I would think you could just thread seal it and not need the flare and o ring.

parts got here fast but did not work, not 11/16 has to be 3/4 or a metric. I still think it is 18ct threads

there are two coolers in the radiator. all the info you are giving is for the trans cooler, I am using this info for the trans cooler. I am trying to get AN fittings for the Oil cooler without using the metal lines. The pictures I have posted are not push in fittings. They are small brass...

yes a lot of them just used a stand alone cooler. I have one of those. just going to add the radiator one in the loop so I get the oil heated in winter. same reason for trans. I have a separate cooler for the power steering. since I had external coolers for all three, I still want to use the...

I would rather keep the radiator. can't get the all copper ones any more. not that the new aluminum ones are bad. I like the copper ones. I will make it fit. just have to grind the stems down. only needs to be long enough to hold the o ring in place. hopefully this afternoon I will find an...
