No should not sound like that. Also sounds dry with bearing rumble. And the rear bearing is not a bushing, i'ts a caged needle bearing. Complete kits available here through Tow4 https://www.steelsoldiers.com/showthread.php?146702-Delco-Alternator-Rebuild-kits-for-alternator-p-n-1105500 Tom

The inner and outer bearing nuts have nothing to do with the inner axle not getting the clip on. Those nuts Must be adjusted correctly for proper bearing pre-load. Take a small pry bar, reach around the backing plate and gently pry the axle U joint toward the Hub. The axle slides inward while...

Found the problem. Ground issue from Neg. post front battery to the engine. Either front Battery Neg. to Buss Bar, or Buss Bar to rear Engine, haven't checked Any further, but will. All seems tight, but something going on. Connected a 10 gage jumper from Battery Neg. to Right Alt. bracket...

Ok, I got out my retractable leads and connected the control ground to Neg. terminal on battery no change. While had it out I backed up other grounds under the dash no change. Now starting to think in another direction. I have noticed lower volt reading from the dash gauge. It climbs up to...

Looking Great! Nice job as always! Tom

Could be for the 100 Amp system option. That's the only time double pulley is used. But I'm not sure about the diameter. Tom

Well not much progress. Using VOM at the GP Controller plug, I have 12.29 volts between Ing. 12v power pink/blk 39A And controller ground Blk 151A. I have sprayed and cleaned the connection to the GP Card, pulled apart and cleaned the four wire connector upstream from the card. Cleaned and...

Thanks for the help. I will recheck the grounds again. Have multiple digital VOM and my trusty Simpson 260. Appreciate the help and direction. Tom

My M1028A2 I've had for ten plus years. Stock other than, installed cab lights, and Mud guards, to meet federal/state law here in IL. Added, drip moldings/visor, emblems. Drive it pretty much every day especially in the winter. Tom

Glow Plug Wait Lamp comes on at random while driving. I have searched and read numerous threads on this, but come up Empty, because of dead links, or never updated the fix, or not exactly my problem. M1028A2 Glow plug system operates as intended and starts fine. After starting the light goes...

LMC has some, but Classic Industries has the best selection I found, for all GM trucks. http://www.lmctruck.com/ https://www.classicindustries.com/ There are others as well. Tom

Separate the batteries and load test each one. One of them is not up to snuff. Usually the front battery dies first, because it does all the work, along with the Gen 1 Tom

Nice Job Bill! Thanks for Sharing. Tom

That's the flywheel housing drain hole. It stay's open until you plan to ford water then a Plug is installed. Nothing to worry about, unless you have large amounts of Oil running out. Usually means leaky rear main seal. Tom

I would call or Email Tom and ask him. He will gladly tell you what you need to do. Having not done the swap myself, if you think modifying or making a new arm Will solve your problem, then do it. Tom

I would use the 21SI or the larger 26SI, not the 24SI and be done with it. There available in 24volt Tom

Hopefully someone more knowledgeable than us will chime in. My truck as I said has a 12 to 14" hose from the steel line to the WC. There is a clamp about half way securing it to a bracket on the knuckle. Maybe it was changed during rebuild or by previous owner (state of IL). I don't know. Tom

My M35A1 has hose from axle hard line at knuckle to the wheel cylinder with a banjo bolt. Could have maybe been put that way after rebuild in 81. Tom

Thanks Rich. Your memory better than mine. I know it only goes one way. Thx for the correction. Tom
