The chain is still a weak point . I'm very familiar with them , bought my 1st truck with a NP203 in 1980 (1975 F-250) and still have it along with several wore out transfer cases . Ford quit using them in 1976 , 1977 models had the NP205 with automatic transmission a much better setup.

Down to a 85 second wait.

And you trust the reading ?

It can happen in either gear depending on which direction it is bumped from.

I'm not positive on this but I think the factory sender is 1/8" NPT . A good parts store should be able to look it up . It wouldn't hurt for you to post the part numbers when you get done for future reference .

But the wait time between searches is down to 85 seconds instead of 90 seconds.:roll:

Pull the sender on the back of the motor and put a tee in and use both gauges.

They are NP 203 transfer cases and they make a kit you can install to convert them to part-time 4x4 . They are a chain drive transfer case and the chains stretch over time . No lockers in them , by design the mid-70's full time truck would engage the front drive in slippery conditions at low...

It depends on the quality of the part you buy .

Do you have a farm ?

Back when those manuals were printed it was also common for brand new highway tractors to straight into the shop to have the front brakes completely removed before ever hitting the road . Just because it was done 70 years ago doesn't mean it was done right .

Gravity bleeding dosen't compress the small air bubbles that get suspended in the fluid , they will eventually work their way to the wheel cylinder and cause spongy brakes , it is a band-aid method of bleeding breaks. I"ve been certified in heavy truck brakes since june of 1980 . Cutting corner...

They wouldn't put a bleeder on the airpac if bleeding it was unnecessary . Will gravity get most of the air out probably , but cutting corners on a single circut brake system is never a good idea .

They make canisters with a couple different threads , you need to compare to the old canister .
