I've been trying to find information in the TM's, without any success, on the remote power steering reservoir used with the latest model power steering pumps. I'm mainly trying to find out if the sight glass on the side is where the full level is supposed to be.
Well, I couldn't stand waiting until tomorrow. After I took the cover off I got to looking really close and I don't think that it's a spacer after all. But I'm going to attach a picture anyway. Let me know what you think.
Steve, I'll get some pictures for you tomorrow.
There is no indication whatsoever that this thing had been into since it left the factory until I opened it up.
Steve,
I trust your experience but is it possible that it could have been done if they needed to use up some 4.10 carriers. I took this rear end out of a CUCV myself so I know that it is original. I have build quite a few front and rear ends so I am not new to this. I'm not trying to argue...
I just opened up a 14 bolt rear axle from a M1008 CUCV. It initially appears that there is a spacer behind the ring gear. Did GM sometimes use 4.10 carriers with a spacer behind a 4.56 ring gear in CUCV applications?
I put a post in the classifieds looking for some 35 spline side gears for a Dana 60 Trac-Lok but I wasn't 100% sure that they had them. Maybe someone will have some and respond.
Thanks
That's where I saw this to begin with. I have no idea for sure what they used, I assume that they used anything that they had available at the time.
I just thought that if this was viable technology, and I could find some more information about it, I would try to build a setup myself. That...
I read about a WMO filter that the military used during WWII. It uses a series of stainless steel filters and some kind of desiccant to clean and de-water the oil. Does anyone know if there is a TM that might have some info about this process?
Got him to keep the switches but I would like to see the pictures anyway. If it ever comes up again this would be good stuff to know.
Warthog made a post about this but pictures would be great for future reference.
Thanks
Well I found the problem. When he put the new switch in somehow or another he pushed the battery feed wire out of the plug. The tail light feed is a different wire so we were getting power to them but not the headlights. I think that his whole problem started with a blown fuse. Gonna see if he...
