Steel Soldiers now has a few new forums, read more about it at: New Munitions Forums!
Also, ABS light was still on.Side note: DON'T use 'CLEAR CC' - only 'CLEAR CA'... Apparently 'CLEAR CC' clears the calibration.... and you have to reprogram it. Luckily, mine came with a programming table sheet. I'll have to take a pic of that and upload it.
For decades I have been using a short old rusty 1/2" extension that I ground the rounded tip down until it was squared .. It was a very early ratchet tool thus it had near-sharp corners, it was not chamfered like modern toolsWhere? Everything I found was metric,the biggest 10mm
Found this data sheet at O'Reilly's, but more specifically under Applications.The government standardized on the gear oil for logistical reasons (so I've read), but IIRC Spicer recommended a 50 wt gear train oil for that transmission and guys have had good performance using that type of oil instead.
as you found out or read in the forums, we can't use GL4 in these trucks due to the yellow metal in them and the sulphur content of certain gear lubes like GL4. I never needed to add any gear oil to your truck and don't know what the town hwy dept may have put in it beforehand .. I hope it was something listed on the Lube data plate on the dashFound whatever was in the tranny and transfer case does not mix well with GL-4.
Not so much worried about the yellow metal issue. From one SS post I heard GL-4 had half the sulfur content as GL-5 and from another that the newer GL-4 and 5 were yellow metal compatible. The GL-4 I topped off the Trans with did not smell of sulfur.as you found out or read in the forums, we can't use GL4 in these trucks due to the yellow metal in them and the sulphur content of certain gear lubes like GL4.
Will do. I'll be using it tomorrow after my new bushing gets here.@kendelrio
Hey maybe you could make a little video of you using that tool in action and post it up so we can check it out
Ok, not a video, but I took pics.@kendelrio

It is a 4k press, and it didn't "max" out, ya know?Looks great, what was the press out pressure?
