    Clutch cover and flywheel damaged out of the box?

    I don't know if I am being overly dramatic about a cheap flywheel but the pioneer FW-100 I got from summit has some radial scrapes in it out of the box with no damage to the outside of the box. I also have a few much smaller radial scrapes on the clutch cover that is an upgrade for me from...

    Body Mount Position 1 not seating

    Im replacing the body mount in position 1 under the front of the door on my 84 Blazer and I am having a wicket time getting the bottom mount to fit onto the top one. Ive got the weight of the whole cab and a threaded rod that can't get them to seat. I must not be aligned correctly?!

    Top door hinge to door bolt one smaller than the rest

    On both sides there is a short bolt out of the whole door hinge bolt kit. I know it is top hinge top row I just cant remember if I took it out of the hole towards the inside or towards the outside. I am sure it is short to clearing something inside the window crank area and if I get it wrong I...

    Need correct core support if my headlights are "dual headlights" with the high under the lowbeams or is dual side by side?

    It seems like both are "dual headlights" just with one having the lights next to each other and the other (like mine) one on top of the other. I am looking at LMC truck parts # 32-2547-T or # 32-2548-T. I think mine is single with the separate turn signal with one over the other headlights. I...

    Pioneer PIO-100 Flywheel to LMC Truck clutch kit 32-6828 what diameter/length dowel pins should I get?

    Put the new throwout bearing in and reinstalled the clutch but the flywheel had no dowel pins. I used a ju ju dance to try and line up the clutch cover but she is definitely off some and makes a nice rattle when in neutral (and when I get on her in low RPM high torque situations). She still runs...

    SM465 Release Bearing Discussion

    Hello, I just purchased a new release bearing from NAPA its an SKF N4068. The part of the bearing where the clutch fork goes does not have the same "point". Does anyone know what this point is for? It seems to me that it keeps the bearing from spinning on the shaft of the transmission as this...

    Tailgate Shakes

    She closes all the way right in the middle of the strikers. I just put new bedsides on her and the tailgate opened and closed ok before the beside replacement. Are the latches junk? Both at the same time? I am worried about the tailgate glass with a wiggley tailgate. Before I take out the...

    Gas gage reads over F when hooked up to the printed ciruit but below E when hard wired to the tank/power/ground

    A couple of years ago I replaced the entire wiring harness (painless wiring) from headlights to tailights and I am very happy with the results except for the gas gage. I also replaced the printed cuircuit. When hooked up normally to the gage cluster/printed curcuit she would always read over...

    Stumbled a little for a quarter mile or a half mile while giving it a little throttle going 45mph

    5 year old 350 engine, 10 year old 1406 edelbrock I have rebuilt a couple times. Fuel pump is a couple years old. I think it might be a vacuum leak but I did just adjust the choke to the front of the truck considerably (eighth or a quarter turn) because I am fed up with the fast idle slipping...

    SM465 Chatters when I get on it.

    This is definitely the transmission chattering. I "recently" replacing the original 700R4 with my covid SM 465 transmission as a set with an NP 205 and adapter (but no power sleeve) that I got cheap from this kid who said he rebuilt it and it works well enough. I got a power sleeve from company...

    My two front output shafts are slightly different and I am curious the reason. There is an extra groove in the gear on the 10 spline vs the 30 spline. See pic. Any ideas?

    SM465 to np205 clack-a-lackin when I get on it

    I am thinking it might be the power sleeve but she is "tight" going on the 10 spline input/output shafts. Sounds like it is coming through the adapter as I have yet to put a shifter boot over the four on the floor lever. It only happens when the driveline is getting full torque. Any ideas...

    I had my transfer case out today and I tugged and pushed on the input shaft and the shaft and bearing both moved a whole 0.25" in and out of the case together! Does anyone know this tolerance? I suspect I am way out and that I may have been sold a T case with a missing shim or collar in the...

    '84 blazer. The wiper motor and fluid pump are clicking when the switch is used with the ignition on. I think it is a bad ground.
