    Front suspension sag, 10k half shafts

    Ok...first of all, the only way you buy parts is via part numbers or NSN's, then cross reference those numbers with the 24p and look at the UOC code for that parts application, listening to some eBay lister might not be the wisest choice....but hey, its your money.

    Front suspension sag, 10k half shafts

    Read my post...954lb spring are what's in an M1038. Your only going to know after the fact if you like the ride of adding snow plow springs, which IIRC are the 1250lb spring. The winch is not that heavy..

    Front suspension sag, 10k half shafts

    You do not want 3k spring in an M998...those are only for M11XX trucks...up armored. standard spring for most trucks is the 954lb spring...UOC for the 954lb spring covers the M998,m1038, M1037 and so forth. I installed 1250lb springs in my M1097 with milemarker winch, its rock solid, drives like...

    Front suspension sag, 10k half shafts

    The only reason for front end sag is worn springs...I have for sale adapters that allow the use of 12k halfshaft on 10k flanges and rotors, you will have to change out your upper spur gear to allow for the heavy shaft.

    Transfer case broken

    On a 242 Tcase, Your rear drive shaft will be determined on which model you buy...there are 2. easiest way to tell is 4 bolt tail cone "latest" or 3 bolt tail cone "early" 242 is a superior Tcase over the 218 and the direct replacement for the 218.

    Whatever damage has been done, if any...it's not reversible, just drive it till it blows.

    FYI. GovPlanet no longer allows partial payments on items $5k+

    I'm confused...you keep saying you had the money, so money wasn't the issue, then why didn't you just wire the money? If you said you couldn't pay and they marked the acct in default before the 3 day period expired, that's wrong. Of that's the case...send wan email to customer service and get a...

    FYI. GovPlanet no longer allows partial payments on items $5k+

    call and ask for a "real manager"....your aren't going to get off the hook, but get them to take the default notice off, especially if your still in the payment window. That's just BS if they did that based on conversation with a rep. Its like telling a cop your going to speed and he writes you...

    Fan not coming on at 220

    If your foot is buried into the floor on your uphill climb...your fan will never engage because the fan cutoff is engaged. My M1097 has a switch on the dash, added by the military that turns the fan on and off at my will. I kinda like it on those hot summer days...I'm able to run the fan on long...

    Stuck Transfer Case, NP242

    I had a similar issue on a Tcase on a full motor package, it suddenly dawned on me that the there was fluid dripping from the detent bolt on the bottom of the Tcase, when I went to turn it, it was loose..meaning? The fluid was drained at the demil yard from this detent bolt hole...when I took...

    no data plate

    Was the truck purchased from GP? if no SN, they would not be issueing you an SF97 as there is nothing to reference too on the SF97. IMO they should not be allowed to sell a vehicle without an SN unless it's sold as parts only and they just provide a bill of sale. If you bought it form someone...

    What does the Trans Kick down solenoid do?

    that switch is also called a fan cutoff switch,that's all I have ever known it to be called and it's in the TM as such. it looks like in a TH400 application they call it kick down switch, in a 4L80E application it's called a fan cutoff switch.

    What does the Trans Kick down solenoid do?

    Injector pump has cold start advance and fuel solenoid. The fan cutoff switch is attached on a bracket and comes in contact when it's WOT to cut the fan off when passing. There is no kick down solenoid on the pump...

    What does the Trans Kick down solenoid do?

    Here is what I know..I'm no trans guy. You can disconnect the cable on the modulator at the pump, when you driving, pull the cable, the trans will drop down a gear, my schematic is for a 4L80E.

    Torsen Question

    I wouldn't try to copy anything from the TT4 setup on a Hummer H1. Just learn how to BTM. The best years for the Hummer line was 97.5-1998, 1999 was by far the worst IMO "TT4"

    Constant running fan.

    Looks normal...but that not how you tell, it's very well free wheeling. Your not showing that if the TDM is unplugged while at very high idle you can hear the fan start moving air...especially when you rev the engine.

    Constant running fan.

    Nothing electrically is going to make the mechanical side work only half way...IMO. The system is simple...you either have 24v's to the TDM or you don't. That 24v comes from the engine harness direct to the thermostatic switch, that switch is either open or closed based on temp. the fan clutch...
