    I would really like a turbo 400 in my truck

    I bought my 32 spline output shaft for my 205 from Advanced Adapters. Comes with the bearing, (bigger OD in my application,) yours may have the bigger OD already, but check. They are great to deal with as well, been around for a long time, and great tech line and customer service.

    Best Grease

    I have a whole fleet of trucks, tractors, swathers etc, and use a moly based grease from Mobile, have never had a bearing fail. Like Perry said grease regular, I bought a milwaukee 12V grease gun with a four foot tube, an absolute lifesaver. Pretty hard to buy bad grease.

    I would really like a turbo 400 in my truck

    The first gear ratio of a 700r4 is a steep 3.06, the TH400 and 350 are right at is 2.52, depending on where you get your info. 4L80e are relative cheap to buy, and upgrade. Friend with a 700r4 in a 650 horse gen 1 427 cost him over 4000. I have ridden in that car and did not like the big jump...

Ideally pistons should be zero deck to minus a...

    Best Locker for 14Bolt FF in 85 K30

    Passenger side axle stuck

    I have a 20 lb slide hammer I made, the axle always comes out. I would not hammer on the axle. As stated previously by Squaredeal, get a long bar run it through the other side and push it out that way. the spider gears will guide it.
