    What did I do wrong? NV4500 Swap Issues

    Pilot bush went in for sure after being test fit on shaft. Bought red locktight and new torq wrench just for this the job. Also, I did make sure to use new bolts. Lol the rest all SEEMED like it was done right. The slave cylinder just drops over the shaft and is held in place by two bolts. I...

    What did I do wrong? NV4500 Swap Issues

    I did for sure install the correct pilot bearing. Test fit on the shaft before it went in.

    What did I do wrong? NV4500 Swap Issues

    @Bextreme04 Bell housing came out of a 97 K2500 when I bought the original swap. And no I never did take measurements. Couldn't tell you where but I'm pretty certain I'd read that I needed that bell housing. Drive shafts and cross member fit exactly like it should. It makes the knocking...

    What did I do wrong? NV4500 Swap Issues

    Just got off the phone with O'Reilly's. Flywheel part# NFW1041. Says it's for a 73-80 454. So at least I did that right

    What did I do wrong? NV4500 Swap Issues

    No...pretty positive a mid 70s 454. Or at least the block is. I'll call up to O'Reilly's and see what the flywheel was. Pretty sure I tried to match it to the transmission and not the motor. Did not realize there would be a difference. Finally found the clutch kit and slave part numbers...

    What did I do wrong? NV4500 Swap Issues

    Its a 454 truck that was previously a TH400. I'll have to check but im pretty sure the flywheel was for a mid 90s 454 truck with a NV4500.

    What did I do wrong? NV4500 Swap Issues

    Backstory....spent several years now sourcing parts to put a later model NV4500 in my 83' K10 Suburban. Total Frankensteins monster. Finally got it all in...fired it up.... Much to my dismay there was a terrible knocking sound coming from the bell housing. Finally got time to pull it all back...

    NV4500 Swap....Turn key, no crank.

    Just got it to fire on its own. But something is wrong with the clutch. Wont fully engage. Sounds like something is hitting the housing as it spins. Makes me wanna puke.

    NV4500 Swap....Turn key, no crank.

    NV4500 Swap....Turn key, no crank.

    Did this. No luck. Traced all the wires to the starter....found the problem. My buddy had installed the starter for me. Along with a bunch of other bits. Turns out not all of the starter solenoids are the same. The "S" terminal on this starter is on the opposite side of the one that came...

    NV4500 Swap....Turn key, no crank.

    So I have a neutral safety switch. It is located at the bottom of the column. It is plugged in. I have not found a wire that would have went to the transmission....as a safety or reverse light. Was all of that controlled through the column?

    NV4500 Swap....Turn key, no crank.

    Correct. It is still the auto column. @DoubleDingo. This is where we are today.

    TH400 help.

    Early 2024 the TH400 gave up the ghost. Turned out the pick up was just kind of flopping around in the pan. I then started on the NV4500 Swap. Its been a rocky road. But mostly due to getting ripped off....a lot. Long story. Though I jad made a post about it....but cant find it. Maybe it...

    NV4500 Swap....Turn key, no crank.

    Thank you. This truck does not have any cruise components. Fairly certain this tilt wheel is out of a newer truck

    TH400 help.

    I've been gone a while. But looking bank through old posts I'm finding A LOT of comments I never saw or got notifications. I hate leaving people hanging.

    NV4500 Swap....Turn key, no crank.

    ooh.....what does this plug into? It's running through the column. Is this my problem?

    NV4500 Swap....Turn key, no crank.

    Howdy gents (and gal). I once again find my self coming to you in dire need of your unrivaled wisdom and knowledge. My Frankensteins Monster of an 83' K10 Suburban has been dead for over 2 years now. But I'm seeing the light at the end of the tunnel. I finally have a 454 / NV4500 / NP208...

    Hydro Clutch Pedal Assembly...from an S10?

    Good catch. Does make a big difference. But I still think it's out. Im still capable of rocking both pilot bearings ive got (LUK and Doorman) back n forth on the input shaft. In the videos ive seen where guys are installing for explaining the difference between bushings and bearings there...

    Hydro Clutch Pedal Assembly...from an S10?

    Well....I would say it's a little out of spec. SMH Just added that guy to my "when society collapses" list. Lets see if he honors the "warranty" this thing came with.

    Hydro Clutch Pedal Assembly...from an S10?

    Thanks for the tip. Ill search one out. Have a particular brand that you recommend? Any chance you know the P/N? Any time saving help like that is greatly appreciated. Looking at replacement input shafts.....gladly accepting recommendations in that regard as well.

    Hydro Clutch Pedal Assembly...from an S10?

    Well this crossmember started life as a W. And in order to work with my current exhaust set up....I need the "OE" W for sure. Being pushed up like that makes it hit the exhaust on the driver side. Edit: And hits in in a fashion that I could not remedy easily. Would require the reworking of...

    Hydro Clutch Pedal Assembly...from an S10?

    Finally found a video that shows some one slipping a pilot bearing on the shaft of a NV4500. Mine def has too much play. Just makes me sad that people are so willing to lie for a few extra dollars. Still going to mic it when I get back out to the shop this evening.....But I knew in my gut the...

    Hydro Clutch Pedal Assembly...from an S10?

    Im looking for one of the W cross members now but not looking very promising. So sad that the one I got with my swap was all cut up. Really wish I'd worked on or even looked at one of these trucks that hadn't been completely molested. My ignorance has been the hardest part of this swap to deal...

    Hydro Clutch Pedal Assembly...from an S10?

    You know....that would not surprise me. Everything about this rig was Frankensteined. Couple more hangups. The pilot bearing or bushing seems to have a good bit of play on the shaft. Its now looks to me that if the builder did replace the input shaft, it was with a used one. Looks ok I...
