As I get inside I dont see anything plugged. I expected to see the silicone in the passages but don't. The top of the power valve is free. I expected to see that seized. The gasket around the governer linkage is leaking, but that just keeps the water out, it's not a vacuum leak. The accelerator...

I need to get this thing to run correctly. The choke has to be partially on, it misses for a while and it stumbles and dies when I give her the berries. I got a carb kit from maccus and tonight is the night. I'm looking for something that feels obvious. it must have an airleak or something...

That yoke was intended to slid in and out over every bump, when you loaded groceries in the trunk, at drive in movies... Can you move the engine forward 1"or 2"?

If you have to shorten the driveshaft take it out of the transfer case end. Remember you will never exceed 58 miles an hour. The transfer case has a real (and big) bearing in the front that is supported by real iron. The transmission has a tailshaft bushing inside an aluminum housing. A...

2. I don't think so. When I first saw the pics I thought the yoke was too far in. I assumed you pushed it in so it would not fall out. I have had first hand experience with bottoming the things out resulting in many broken tailshaft housings before I figured it out. -Custom driveshaft, lifted...

1. The play is what I've seen many times in TH400 and th350s. I think the yoke needs to be in there when you measure the play. The yoke rides on the tailshaft bushing and supports the tailshaft of the trans. I would not worry about it. I have seen many with a lot of play WITH the yoke in. They...

Saw a guy chain the yoke to the vehicle and put the transmission on a 4 wheel cart. He pushed the transmission really fast and when it came to the end of the chain the yoke popped out. It helped the driveway was sloped and had new concrete. Unfortunately the transmission continued on and...

Thanks for the help. I would appreciate the pictures. Dan

Yep, I think the slip yoke slides inside the tapered tailshaft housing of that transmission. It may just be seized on the splined shaft. Looks like it is bottomed out. You may have to pull on the yoke and tap (toward the rear) quite firmly with a heavy hammer.

It looks like the yoke slides inside the transmission like on a 2 wheel drive pickup? Won't it just slide out? Sometimes if they get pushed in too far they stick in. How about a close up pic?

Thanks, I may try to make a look a like if I get some pics.

Any body have any good pics or info in a M211/135 deep water fording kit? I'd like to make one. Have searched but to no avail.

What is WMO?

Fired up the sandblaster today. Used "black magnum"coal slag. Dirty as heck, but really removes the paint. Got all the small stuff done and the inside of the doors. Will use the DA for the flat areas of the doors so they don't warp. The stuff removes the paint so fast, I don't think they would...

I thought about "borrowing" them, but somebody parked it in the lowest spot they could find and the jack sinks in the mud.

Unfortunately is is too windy to paint the frame black today. I just had to put the wheels on to see how they look.

I'm going to leave the existing wiring harness as is. If I change anything I make/add an auxilary harness along side the 24v one that runs 12v lights.

I'm planning on reworking the lights up front a little. Will add turn signals and under body lights. Planning on having the underbody lights go on with a door switch and light up the ground around the truck so I can see where I will be stepping. May work in a timer so they stay on a few seconds...

Yes to the signals, but I have to think it thru. I may go 12 volt depending on how the grill and headlights go. was contemplating a seperate wiring system for my add-ons

I was thinking the same about the seatbelts. Dash padding is a good idea.
