Just different vintages. Pretty much interchangeable. You might pull the back plate on the one and look for soot. That is a usual failure mode. DG

That's it! I've seen this mod on several old GMC NG trucks here in AZ. DG

Your truck went thru rebuild at some time in it's life. That is how it inherited the power steering system from the 800-series trucks. It was a good modification, with better performance overall. There is an adjustment on the steering box, check with the TM's for that . Otherwise, go thru...

For the wobble, there was a MWO to join the bottom left and right rearward front spring towers with a steel bar, bolted on. DG

I bought a Harbor freight benchtop bead blaster, and did all the hardware and small parts that would fit. A blaster like that eats a lot of air, so a good-sized compressor is a good investment. Afterwards, I used rattle can red primer on everything. The finished assemblies were done in the OD...

IOW, it held either a belt-fed or other such gun. dg

Frank & I had good business dealings, never any problems. RIP, friend. :cry:

From the TM pix, It looks to be the screw closest to the pulley end. DG

Dahli, I wasn't referring to you, rather the guy putting you on to the hidden fuse and cutting wires. DG

Yours is a Leece-Neville. Most are Prestolite, and they have only one "on" terminal. I'll have to dig in my manuals to see what goes on your L-N. DG

That alt is a different make than Prestolite, so the connections aren't the same as pictured above. The 14ga wire carries the "on" command from the master switch, and needs to be connected to the Alt via one of the small screw terminals. (NOT goround). DG

A little off for April fools jokes. You might try doing a full continuity test on the turn signal switch. The contacts may have fused with the trailer short. DG

That rear PTO is a gift! DG

Probably an intermittent ground on wire 91. It will let both filaments light dimly on one or the other dimmer switch position. Fiddling with it may have got a ground going OK. DG

Used ATF is a great sub for Diesel. A transmission shop may give it away free. DG

I seem to remember those get torqued to some 600 foot-pounds. I do remember hanging my almost 200lbs on a 5-foot torque wrench to get there. DG

In our summer sun here, a canvas top will last just one year. At most, a metal top just fades a bit. DG

Btw, it's easier to leave the insert in the housing and push the pins in one at a time. Not that I haven't done a bunch of these... DG

Pushing those pins in the rubber support can be a chore. A dip in DOT3 brake fluid will make it a LOT easier and won't hurt the rubber. DG

If you need the 2-pin receptical as well, PM me. I have several good condition take-offs. Here is the 2-pin plug you need: https://www.eriksmilitarysurplus.com/slcapl2pinst.html DG
