YOU ARE DOIN' SO GOOD---SAD THING IS. ARE YOU OUTSIDE?
I WAS OUTSIDE---THEN A CARPORT---NOW A NICE "HEATABLE" 2 CAR GARAGE WHEN I FINALLY ACQUIRED THE PERFECT FEMALE SEVEN YEARS AGO, AND I FINALLY BOUGHT MY (OUR) 1ST HOUSE SEVEN YEARS AGO AFTER 41 YEARS OF NOMADING
I WILL SEND YOU MULTIPLE ALBUMS, MAYBE A BUNCH!
VERIFY THIS INFO !
THINGS COULD BE SPECIAL ORDERED FROM FACTORY---PEOPLE CHANGE THINGS DUE TO "EASE/ EXPENSE IN ACQUIRING THEM"
YOU SHOULD HAVE "NORMALLY" EITHER A T-176
THESE TRANNYS ARE "NORMALLY COUPLED" WITH A DANA 300 TRANSFER CASE. BOTH ARE ALUMINUM CASESEARLIER TRANNYS (EX. MINE, T-150) ARE CAST IRON CASES
ALL OF THE ABOVE USE 80W-90 GEAR OIL !
OTHER TRANNYS WILL EZily FIT IN!
LATER YEARS USE A T-4 (4SPD) OR A T-5 (5 SPEED) THE DANA 300 TRANSFER CASE WILL NOT ATTACH TO THESE (UNLESS THEY MAKE AN ADAPTER)THESE 2 USE DEXRON II AUTO TRANNY JUICE
NOTE----THESE 2 SORTA RESEMBLE A SR-4 IN A QUICK GLANCE----MAKE ABSOLUTELY SURE OF WHAT YOU HAVE, LOOK FOR NUMBERS ON THE CASE ! ! !
I TRY TO GET AN "EDGE" ON ANY MISSION I MUST UNDERTAKE, RIGHT PEOPLE NEEDING MY AID. ME NEEDING THEIR'S.I TRY TO COME OUT ON TOP. BELOW IS MY AUTO SALVAGE YARD "ANGLE"
YOU ARE GONNA HAVE TO HIT A SALVAGE YARD, LOOK THRU THE 80s FORDS, AND FIND THE CORRECT CONNECTOR FOR THE DISTRIBUTOR---GRAB YOU A SPARE "BLUE" (PLASTIC ENTRANCE WIRE HOLDER)(RED OR YELLOW ARE NOT COMPATIBLE) IGNITION MODULE TOO. THEY WILL WANT FOR LITTLE TO NOTHING $$$ FOR IT (TAKE IT HOME AND TEMPORARILY RUN IT TO VERIFY IT WORKS). THIS WILL MAKE YOU FEEL GOOD LATER, IF YOU HAVE AN IGNITION PROBLEM, IT WILL EITHER CONFIRM OR RULE OUT A IGNITION MODULE PROBLEM, WITHOUT HAVING THE ONE IN QUESTION TESTED
The best resource is a small Ma and Pop type "U Pull It" type auto salvage yard
The ones I go to, I can get a Grocery Store plastic sackful of any and all sensors, off of any vehicle, seats, or even a door, for $10 or less. IT'S ALL IN "TECHNIQUE"
If you'll take a cooler of soft drinks, and strategically offer a round when you are talking to 'em as soon as you arrive
Yes. Before your venture, and when you return, from the yard with your booty,
prior to the "Settling Up Proceedings". Generally, "Price Specials" sorta "Happen" in your favor!
Any time you go---or your friends have to go, use the Technique (make your buddy supply, when he goes)
Depending on how many times you show your face, you will never have to pay for the little piddly stuff again, larger items will leave with you for little to no cost!
THESE PICS WERE A TRIP I WILLY, MY NEIGHBOR NEEDED A DOOR FOR HIS TRUCK.I GOT IF FOR $10 (AS IF IT WAS FOR ME). HE BOUGHT THE DRINKS
FINDING OUT THE OWNERS HOBBY HELPS TOO! AT ONE YARD, IF I NEED A BIG ITEM, LIKE A REAR TRUCK AXLE, I'LL TAKE A FEW OLD BOTTLES (HE COLLECTS BOTTLES) EVEN IF THEY ARE BASICALLY ALMOST WORTHLESS TO HIM, HE APPRECIATES THE GESTURE, AND ONCE AGAIN.I LEAVE WITH A BIG ITEM, AT THE SUPER REDUCED RATE!
I THINK MY ONE PIECE HEADMAN HEDDER WAS $105 AT ADVANCE AUTO 10? YEARS AGO, IT HAS A LIFETIME WARRANTY. I ELIMINATED MOST OF THE MANIFOLD BOLTS, EXCEPT THE COUPLE OF "HAVE TOs" AND REPLACED THEM WITH GRADE 8 STUDS. THIS MADE IT REAL EZ TO "HANG" AND BOLT INTO PLACE.I THINK IT HAS A TAG WELDED ON IT, I MAY BE ABLE TO GET THE NUMBER IF YOU WANT IT
WE'LL DISCUSS THE "USELESS BOX LATER"---WITH A LITTLE MORE INVESTIGATION.
SAMES GOES FOR THE AIR/ FUEL GAUGE
SEND PICS, I'LL VERIFY YOUR VACUUM STUFF
AM I AIDING YOU MUCH AT ALL. YOU SEEM TO BE DOING REALLY GOOD WITH GETTING YOUR BUDDY SQUARED AWAY!
SEND A PIC OF YOUR MANUALS TOO
