BAD NEWS........... you are not through...... if you have the square panel with 4 screws in the bed of the truck you need to remove the panel then the fuel sender (round thing with 5 or 6 screws 2 wires) and have a look inside the tank. If the bottom looks anything like your filter removal and...
I would be surprised if it was not a fuel issue. REMOVE the fuel filter from the truck and post pictures, bet it's ugly. The trans light is probably from low pressure from the engine not turning fast enough to keep up the trans pump pressure as it stalls. Algae grows in diesel fuel and if the...
Your local parts house could have provided the instal kit for this........ just take the joint with you. First time i've ever seen lock washers on a joint before........I'm positive someone else has though.
My two cents for what it's worth, Tractor Supply where I live sales a "shim" in the same size as the large brass washers. Cad plated I think, stocked with the 3 point hitch goodies,they work for me.
About what I found, no use on code for it. 1097 rebuilds in TX. 4L80e is one tuff box and the items to upgrade a 2000 and newer to 4L85e are available. THANKS
For anyone that is a little geospatially inclineed I would be happy to explain how to align their truck. You need a relatively level floor, a torpedo level with a laser, a digital inclinometer (decent ones are available pretty cheap), some square aluminum tubing to make 2 jigs, a couple...
This anti freeze is probably intended for the commercial type diesels with the wet liner. The anti cavitation is probably DCA that we added to regular antifreeze before the "long life" stuff came along. I know some one will correct me but i've never seen a "bored liner" engine that had to have...
If you plan on putting a top quality electric winch $$$$$ in your truck IMHO the mile marker winches are the way to go. Don"t let the hydraulic thing scare you. Even a cheap winch that requires a generator and battery swap deserves to be priced out, you might be surprised. My two cents. A J
Demilled deep water fording valve???? Look at the new one in the picture above it. Belongs in the hole in the dash at your right knee. My two cents. A J
80/90 is good IMO if you are fording creeks and such, change it regularly, no sense in expensive synthetics. I might point you to ARMY LO 9-2320-280-12 good reading. And FYI, these things have silicone brake fluid in them. DO NOT mix it with any other type! Beautiful part of the country you...
Pull the hub inspection plate and check the big gear. If it has any significant miles it would show on the gear, easy to get to. With the indicated miles there should be almost no wear pattern. MY 2 cents.
