You should probably order a drive gear ahead of time. https://www.aspwholesale.com/starter-parts/delco/drives.html?page=all I think yours is a 40MT but not sure.

Starters have a clutch between the motor and stater gear. When this clutch fails it allows the motor to turn without turning the engine.

I think the rating requirements only apply to P series tires, P315/85R17 and not LT series, LT12.5/37R17 for example.

The VRV and modulator work together to set trans pressure relative to engine torque. Without the VRV you would have one trans pressure over all conditions which would result in two results. You will have hard late shifts at part throttle or slippery early shifts at full throttle. If you use an...

Late to the game here but Crater 2X is the go to wire rope lube. Crater is sold under the Texaco/Havoline names. Chevron sells it as NC 100. The Navy Towing Manual has all of the information for wire rope lubrication...

Interlux InterZinc is an inorganic zinc primer in a rattle can. It's available to boating supply stores.

These engines are very good at starting if you have a working glow plug system. If the starter is spinning the engine you either have bad glow plugs or the injection pump is stuck in shutdown. Do you see white smoke from the exhaust?

Because you're going through the effort of blasting you should consider using an inorganic zinc primer as a first coat for best rust protection. I'm starting to see them available in rattle cans, I'll try to post a product number tomorrow.

There are two Cat Yellow paints. Up to 1979 was called Hiway Yellow. After 1979 is just Cat Yellow or New Cat Yellow.

The TH400 transmission I'll always shift on the governor if you drive it fast enough regardless of what the vacuum signal is doing. Verify the transmission hits all gears at full throttle (not too exciting with a 6.2). If it doesn't you need to be looking at the transmission, if it does then you...

We had to stop using Baldwin primary filters on our John Deere 6081 engines. The top of the filter has a tapered metal seat and the angle on the Baldwins is wrong. It touches metal to metal before compressing the rubber gasket. When the fuel tank level would drop below the height of the filter...

Just an FYI, in my experience, with a bad injection pump, the engine starts right up but does when you try to drive it. Then the long cranking to get it going again where it will be fine for the rest of the day.

Either would be acceptable.

How much do you want to spend? These ones are good enough for every day use. Torque Multipliers, 4x Multiplication, 1/2" Female Input Square Drive https://www.mcmaster.com/5603A1 You're already halfway there with two broken ones. Is 4x sufficient? The price goes up steeply from there.

Don't judge a grease by it's color.

Yep, learned this lesson trying to buy vent window seals for an 86.

Be warned. There is a shortage of polyurea greases right now.

Sorry, I'm a bit of a grease snob. Any quality ball bearing nowadays comes packed with a polyurea based grease. These are generally not compatible for mixing with lithium greases. The annoying part is finding it. Lucas X-tra Heavy Duty (green) is a polyurea. Otherwise, your local bike shop...

Anaerobic gasket maker.

You should be using polyurea grease for bearings.
