Yes sir, will do!

Good for you man! Glad she's coming back to life!

Yeah I read that when I did my search on the subject ( before posting this thread). And my issue was totally opposite. Yesterday it started sticking IN gear. I would push in the clutch and try to pull it down into 4th and it would not come out of 5th no matter how hard I pulled. I found that if...

Yeah bud, everyone just uses the normal ferrules, and not a single report of a failure related to them reported to date.

Tom, I would LOVE to upgrade the overdrive with your kit right now, but I just can't afford it at the moment (unless you finance) I'm glad to know both of the shafts come out without too much headache. I wouldn't think the input shaft needs to come out, but we'll see. The donor motor and trans...

Roger that. I'm going to pull the floor panel and trans top cover tomorrow morning. My wrenching spot is currently filled with a 929 that I just got running. It is leaving in the morning, then I can move the deuce over and tear into it. If the trans has to come out then I'm just doing a whole...

Had my first real failure today. Pulled out of the driveway of my friend's house about three miles up the road from my house, shifted 1st- 4th just fine, went into 5th and got about two seconds of pull in that gear and then it neutralled itself out. Tried taking it out of gear and putting it...

Man I always get worried when a complete truck is going to get torched up. I bought one last week that was going to see the torch. Has new tires, new engine, new trans and transfer case, runs and drives, just has no brakes right now. I had to save it. No rust on it either.

Great job man, glad you didn't give it the hot knife. Sounds like it is a good running engine too!

Oh man I'm sorry to hear that! It won't be he last one you come across though. There have been a couple for sale around you not long ago. Keep an eye on the classifieds.

If you need glow plugs for it I have a sh*tload of them.

You are looking at 2.5-3 pounds normally, but it will vary depending on location, elevation, temperature, and humidity at time of charge.

Oh darn. Well I suppose you could go redneck and just use Saran Wrap and packing tape.

Let me know if you can get it to Louisville or not and then I'll figure up costs. And fwiw, I'm not certain I'm going yet. If you can get it there, I'll go.

My third set of trucklite headlights started failing on me last night. Third set in about 8 months. I don't think you were considering them, just thought it was worth mentioning.

Nice! I don't suppose you got lucky and found the missing door in the cargo bed did you?

Get it a little farther my way and I'll bring it the rest of the way. I may end up at the MVPA convention in Louisville if you can get it there I could towbar it back, and then over to you.

That would be fine, or you could just get some lock washers and put them on when you change the pump.

Holy sh*t dude! Well, at least you found the problem! No for an easy fix and you'll be on your way. Glad you found the problem.

I wonder if the oil pump drive isn't out of place or has a sheared key way or something? Ever pulled a distributor on a Chevy 350 and failed to get the drive rod back in the oil pump when you reinstalled the distributor? No oil pressure.
