Okay, got the QD numbers for the ones I use. They're FF-371-8FO and FF-372-8FO. Those were the ones I chose for NPT hoses with adapters. You may want different ones depending on if you use NPT, O-ring, or JIC hoses. Are those the correct ones? I don't know for sure. Took measurements off the...

Excellent point on the torque converter, which I thought about after posting last night. A mismatched converter can screw up the performance of an otherwise good setup. But that transmissions don't suck power I disagree with. I think we can agree on that there's a noticeable difference between...

Maybe it is semantics, but it bugs me when things are called something different than what they are. An aftercooler, charge air cooler, or intercooler could well be the same item, but referred to by different names depending on its application. Although, aftercooler and charge air cooler appears...

Man, you have a knack for breaking stuff. Have you tried putting fluids in those things? It's my understanding that most drivetrain components work longer with lubrication.

It would be great to be able to drop the tank completely, but I don't see that happening without removing the rear bracket. Or the bed above it. If you don't mind, what sort of sockets/wobblies/extensions did you use for the rear bracket (you did mention air tools earlier)? I had to use a...

Wish I could've done that. Did you really remove the rear bracket, too? Had the tank sat just a bit lower on this SEE I could've slid it forward after only removing the straps. And could've worked on the hose connections without moving or removing anything.

Okay, I'll look them up tomorrow. MSC direct is a good source, but I generally get the males and females from different places, going for the lowest prices for each.

I had planned on doing that, but as you can see in the picture, there really wasn't enough room for pulling it out.

I think your best answer is in post number 11.

Big trannies such as a 4L80E sucks more power than do smaller ones. I'm surprised that you went with a 4L80E rather than a 700R4. Wouldn't hold up? Mine did, in a Banks turbo'd M1009 (no, it didn't have the stock 3.08 gears), although it was built to handle upwards of 500 ft.lbs. if memory...

Hey, sounds like your luck (or lack thereof) is a lot like mine.

That's too bad. Then you can't take advantage of the amazing prices Rock Auto has on a close-out sale on a bunch of K30 parts. Or maybe you can...there are photos with many of them.

I do respect your opinion, corelokt, but I respect facts more. That LOTS of people refer to charge air coolers as intercoolers (because it sounds fancier?) doesn't change the fact that there are very few actual intercooler applications out there. As far as mounting a charge air cooler in a CUCV...

Okay, did the deed on concrete. Now I'm curious how you accessed the rear tank brackets. It'd be easy if it wasn't for the muffler being inconveniently placed in the way. I ended up loosening both straps, removing the bolts for the front bracket, then moved the tank forward and tilted it down as...

Alright, since there are no other takers, I'll present the best facsimile I have. It's going in my Ram, and without a second turbo or a blower to plumb it in between, it's a mere charge air cooler. Sorry.

I think it's mostly an even more standard Case 580C. Finding the quick disconnects wasn't that hard. I can look up the numbers if someone wants them - or look at the numbers on the couplers on the hose reel, then pick the hose connection tread/size of your liking.

Yes, I owe you one for cluing me in, but I'm not convinced about the 1-hour part. It would likely be had I not parked in a mud puddle. Hopefully it can be primed, bled, primed, and maybe even ethered, to dry ground. Or, I could add fuel to the tank I'm about to drop, drive, then siphon. Yeah...

Dang it, you had to be right, didn't you? Compared to two other FLUs, and the lines are reversed. Yeah, I know, a two minute fix...except on this SEE. For whatever reason, the tank is so close to the bed structure above that the 90-degree hard lines coming out of the sending unit don't quite...

A always use a stout tow vehicle and trailers that are well suited for the task. Except when it's quicker to utilize whatever is handy.

Can you then recycle the copper from the wiring they ate off of the SEEs?
