I would take it to a alternator repair shop and have them check it first. Mine quit charging a few days ago, turned out the exciter wire was split and not making a good connection.
I repaired the wire and she is charging like a champ now. cost...... about 10 cents
You cant see the snap rings. As far as the gears go starting at the back of the transmission going forward the gears are:
1st / reverse
2nd gear
3rd gear
5th gear
4th gear
excluding 1st and reverse only one gear should move at a time. If you grab all the gears and they slide back and...
I was in the 2nd Bn 5th Cav Regt when I was on active duty. I miss Fort Hood and the 1st Cav Division.
On a side note......DO NOT use the Rapco paint on the exhaust stack of your truck...... It will burn and turn brown. ( I know I am a dummy :oops:)
One case of the Rapco 383 did the entire BODY of the truck. It was not enough to do the frame, axles, wheel wells, inside the cab, inside the bed, or troop seats.
I believe to paint EVERYTHING on the truck it would take two cases. My plan is to get a second case and finish the job right. I...
I fed the degreaser through the pressure washer. Then rinsed thoroughly, let dry and started slinging paint!!!!
As far as the back round tan goes I went to Lowes and found some flat tan spray paint, and some two inch stencils.
I taped off a square on the front bumper after I painted the truck...
As far as surface prep, all I did was get some "Totally Awesome" degreaser from the local dollar store and pressure wash the entire truck. I went over her and picked all of the loose flaking CARC off and started spraying with my 12 pack of rattle cans.
The old paint wasnt that bad as far as...
I spent most of this past weekend painting my deuce and re-applying the new unit markings. I bought a case of 383 green spray paint from Rapco and was VERY impressed with the results.
I know how much you guys like pictures so here they are........
Howdy from Lexington NC. You will need a converter to convert the trucks 24 volt to the trailers 12 volt. I hope you are coming to Uwharrie in April, we would like to see you there
It might be possible that your second gear fork is broken or bent. take off the top of the tranny and look to see what is going on. Making repairs are very easy on the 3053a transmission. I was able to pull the top of the transmission, remove the main shaft, replace my broken parts and get...
I dont believe that you sheared the keys. If the keys were sheared you would loose second and third gear ( ask me how I know).
What happens when you put her in second gear?? Does nothing happen? Does it grind?..........
It seems that most states are the same as NC, as far as fuel decals go. If you only plan on running your truck in your respective state then you only need a state fuel decal. If you plan on running your truck out of state occasionally then you can buy temporary decals at the state line. If...
Sorry, I havent posted in a while. I did try to clean all of the connections but it did not help. I am assuming that I have a bad cable. I am not sure where to go from here so I am just trying to live with it for now.
I am in Lexington, about 45 minutes North of you on I-85. Feel free to send me a PM and I will be glad to answer any questions you may have. If I dont know the answer I will find it.
