Welcome to the forum. Probably best you park the truck and put the front axle up on jack stands. Next, inspect for loose wheel bearings, worn out tie rod ends, and disintegrated knuckle bearings.
Sweet! No surprise that GEP parts did not know about the vendor change on the blocks. Parts is way down on the manufacturing food chain. I'm in assembly and even then purchasing forgets to tell us they switched vendors. We usually find out when the line goes down because something no longer...
I would swap the 17 and 18 wire at the headlights. The highbeam indicator will still be sync'ed with the wrong filaments if you just swap the dimmer wires.
Get a caliper. Measure the diameter of the yoke sealing surface, and the inner diameter of the retainer where the seal presses into. With this info, go to your local bearing supply house. The 70 year old GM seals are leather which is fine, but that is a bit old technology.
Nice DUKW!
Recall that the 4L80E is 2" longer than the TH400, so driveshaft modifications or replacement is inevitable. Has someone published how to manufacture a stand alone harness from the 4L80E to the military controller?
I have a pair of steel ramps made exactly how you describe, strong enough for 15k. I HATE THEM. Way to heavy, I can just barely pick up one end and drag them around. Herniated disc waiting to happen. Drop the coin and get aluminum ramps. Reorider has some nice ones, same as OTR truckers...
Picture #5 is the hole for the crank position sensor used with the evil DS4 computer IP. Thanks for the pic, now I know this engine will work for me. Sure is a good looking engine. The paint marks, bar code sticker, and "506" says US made to me anyway.
