The angle is correct, should be as close to equal at both ends as possible. The exception to the rule is if you have a double cardan joint at the transfer case end in which case the differential should be rotated close to straight. Keep in mind that it will rotate up on acceleration so you want...

You will find the hinge is slotted where it is bolted to the body, IIRC there are three bolts and two of them are slotted. Been a while since I did one. It does not have to move much, take note of exactly where it is now before you move it. Mark the present spot on the hinge around the bolts...

Just remember that everything keys off of the doors. The doors get fit to the roof and the rocker and the body side and the rest of the removable panels work forward from there. Set the rear of the fenders to the doors. the cowl panel to the top of the fenders. The back of the hood center and...

I grew up working on dairy farms and have had the crap kicked out of me more than once by those "cute little" calves.:)

If the gap is tighter at the rear than it is at the front or vice-versa then the fenders will need alignment also. You also have the height adjusters for the front of the hood. I have spent hours on show vehicles aligning front sheet metal because every piece is tied into another piece. The rear...

Goats have shorter, more stable legs.

This will end very badly! The ride will break their legs in short order! Do NOT try it. Rick

I have used that feature several times, it is real handy since I can't ever seem to find the right search term.

If it hums then it probably is a rotary vane style of pump and may or may not flow enough fuel through from the mechanical. In that case you may want to put in a bypass with valves and leave the electric. I still say from the symptoms that the pump may not be keeping up. The easiest way to tell...

That is correct, the mechanical pump will pump right through the electric assuming the electric is not a gearotor type of pump. Even some of them are designed to pump through. Does it click or thump when it runs? If so you have no worries. If it does not try it anyway, you will not damage the...

That is just too complicated. If it is leaking until you start it and then it stops leaking and starts smoking that would tell me that the pump can't keep up and the injection pump is sucking air. You have mentioned a water separator several times and these trucks did not come with a water...

I knew it was one or the other. I don't like any of them myself. Personal opinion. Rick

An H3 is a Tahoe with a different body, nothing more or less. It ain't gonna touch that deuce! Letting air out of the tires now is just going to set the differentials tighter on the ground. If you are going to let air out I would pull forward a little, let some out, pull forward a little, let...

Do you have the blackout light switches set correctly?

Yea, I have heard you are quite the teetotaler Gimp.:beer:

You know, if you single that strap, have the wife in the yoda and you in the truck just lightly turning the wheels and give it a couple of good tugs it will probably come right out. Just use momentum and not a lot of wheel spin on the puller after the tug. The strap does not have any steel on...

I guess it depends on when "back then" was?

Made it there and back in one piece. Met some nice people, some not so nice. I think this might just be my last year, after 25 years I have noticed a disturbing trend in the type of people attending these meets. I paid a lot of money for my spot but had to abandon it to avoid a confrontation. I...

Speddmon, You might want to reread the post I quoted. I was not talking about the OP. This guy says he had a military license to drive all this stuff while still 16. I stand by what I said. CUCV's did not come in service until 84 and by then it would be **** tough to lie you way in at 16 let...

And how did you get into the military at 16 let alone get a drivers license for all of those vehicles while still 16? I call BS on this one!
