Sorry saw you already did the rear brake conversion. If you did not change the master cylinder this could be part of the problem with your rears. I think the problem you are having is in the proportioning valve and possibly not having the needed capacity in the master cylinder to operate the...

Not sure why you would change to a vacuum booster from hydroboost? diesel or gas can use the hydroboost the same as long as the pulley and pump sizes do not change between motors. If you changed the motor but still have hydro pump, your brakes should work fine. You mention your problem is when...

Sounds like all the work may have drained your batteries. Charge them up good then see what happens. With all the shorts going on, one of your batteries may have gone south on you.

yes, I am pretty sure that is the correct Gillespie number (34052). bought it through Rapco online. lusterless marine green.

looks great, looks to be the same paint as mine. Gillespe Marine green. It is the base color for the woodland camo. As soon as I get my slider windows installed and fronts tinted, our trucks could almost be twins. nice truck Rich

Got the Transmission installed. Had to pull it one more time to fix leak between the magnum and 205. I did not get one of the bolt holes sealed good. Ran the truck a few miles tonight to get all the fluids warm. At this time I have no leaks that I can find. I put some fresh cardboard under it...

I like the looks of it but I thing you need to extend the mounts so you can put the shackles back on after installing the winch mount. when pulling yourself out, sometimes you need to double the cable back using a snatch block/pully if the winch is small. With the shackles removed there is no...

since you have the tires clean, I would use Dyna beads, I have them in my 39 inch Michelin XZL's on my 1009. 12 OZ. of beads in each tire. They work well. I will be getting some new centramatic balancers to add. Currently the tires run well but want to add some extra balance media for the...

is this a 6.2 diesel with 24volt system blazer or a civy blazer?

sounds like you have a bad starter solenoid. check the fusable links with a meter. they are probably bad even though they still look good. The starter solenoid can get a dead short causing things to burn up. read the stickies about the starter circuit and starter run on. fix the starter...

I would consider using just two and keeping two as a spare. two will be plenty of light. Mine are 24 V X 450 watt and it is crazy how much they light up. Add some LED light bars for lower light needs. The aircraft bulbs have a 100 hour rating. They don't last long so have a source for spare...

The lights must be a PA thing. No problem with having them in Texas that I know of. They were there when I had it last inspected. I know the law in Texas is you can only have 4 headlights/fog lights (forward facing driving lights). This does not count the marker lights and they must be DOT...

popacom lights. I second the popacom lights 450 W 24v. I have them and a 24 inch led light bar. I can turn my high beams on, and the led light bar. The led puts out a lot of light but once I turn the big lights on, I cannot tell all of the other lights are on. The big lights draw a lot of...

I moved my front axle back one inch to stock location (have ORD zero rates).Jacked truck up and put frame on blocks so that tires were hanging. Removed drive shaft, ground on cv joint until it did not bind anymore when tires are dropped. Did not take much the drive shaft would still turn but...

I am in the process of installing the PSC hydro assist steering kit in my 1009 and I am considering adding a cooler. I am also considering adding a trans cooler. my thought was: Can I use the existing trans cooler in the radiator as the hydro cooler and just get one big trans cooler for the...

I used the LMC gaskets and have not had a leak yet. To help keep the seam on the roof from holding water, I put clear silicone in the crack. The stock gaskets work as long as your metal is good. I had two holes that I ground out and braised up with a torch prior to the repaint. Most of the...

You will have to get the exhaust inside the frame to run the turbo and fuel tanks on both sides. The only way to get it inside the frame with the gm manifold is to notch the frame so two pipes can fit. The cross over pipe from the drivers side and the actual exhaust pipe. I do not know anyone...

4l80e running good Got the trans installed and a little driving in for the first time in about two years. Had to take a lot of long breaks from the project due to work. I do not have a trans lift but have become very good at installing just using a floor jack. The trans, magnum box, 205...

I got my tranny back from being rebuilt for the second time. The POS tranny controller from TCI over pressured the tranny and messed up the electrical plug connection and made it leak really bad, it also blew some internal O-rings and seals. They had to take it apart and put it back together...

I would like the info on that filter also. I am needing to change mine to a spin on before it starts getting driven a lot.
