    700R4 Information Thread

    Finally got it back to the builder. Pan gasket was leaking anyway, so he had to drop it no matter what to fix that. I bought the Sonnax reverse boost valve you suggested and handed it to him. Worth the $30 so he had no excuse not to get it all done at the same time. Retested it, 1 and 2 are at...

    Wiper Issues

    Officially, Lights don’t cross on that system, nevertheless, here we are. I think The purple wire (but someone will correct me if not) in the harness is the ground and the motor is ground triggered. Unplug the switch from the harness. Check the switch for continuity with the purple and also the...

    Ball joint

    If the zerk fitting is new; Pull it out and see what is at the bottom of it. It should be soft grease. If it is anything hard, 1) try and clean it out with a pick and see if it will take grease. If still no joy 2) replace the joint. If there is any chance of the joint being salvageable, there...

    Glass lock strip replacement

    They sell these kits at LMC. I bought the chrome strip since that was what my truck had originally, and a new weather seal when I had windshield replaced. I brought both of them to a windshield guy to do the install. The chrome started to crack and fall apart during the installation and I had...

    Ball joint

    A few things to try. First, replace the grease fitting. It is probably clogged or rusted. When you have the grease fitting out, check the bottom of the fitting hole and make sure it is not plugged at the bottom with rust or crap. This will solve the problem 90% of the time. They are like $0.50...

    Replacing K20 fuel tank

    If you try to replace this valve, just learn from my mistakes; I decided to replace the Pollak valve when I had the tanks down and I was installing intank pumps. I purchased this valve new from Autozone, and it was junk. It was nonfunctional out of the box...

    Rear Brakes Locking Up

    @Goldie Driver; when you have eliminated all the possible, what remains no matter how improbable, must be the truth. So if you traced them from the PV back to the MC, then what you found has to be the truth. I can’t really tell from your pictures how they trace back, but those lines don’t look...

    Replacing K20 fuel tank

    The valve can be changed from the ground, it isn’t as bad as it looks. When you have the passenger side tank down it is even twice as easy to do. It is only two bolts. Cut the hoses to get it out and replace with new fuel line. It’s a 90 minute job, even with the passenger side tank still up...

    Heat and AC

    I would check the switch valve first. Get under the truck and have someone throw the switch and see if the valve is making noise. Two options; disconnect the wiring harness off the pollak valve and use a test light to map it out. If you have power on two separate wires (when switched)...

    Best rebuilt th 700R4?

    If you are in AZ, ship a core to @NicksTransmissions in Las Vegas. It is your safest bet. If you watched some of his videos rebuilding a new "HD 700R4" that melted down, you'll realize all you are paying for sometimes is stock parts and black paint when you buy them through the mail. Would...
