    GETRAG 5-SPEED

    When I had mine redone the total bill came to $1500, but that included R&R and a SB Con-O clutch. Do not run thick oil! The Getrag is assembled with preload on the bearings, not clearance. You need thin oil for good lubrication. If this is a working truck, run a good synthetic 5W-30 like...

    GETRAG OIL THROUGH THE TOP

    If you have a 2wd it's easiest to put a street elbow in the fill hole. Then you can put a small funnel in the elbow and pour the stuff right in. :)

    fuel leaking

    Gotta put a new o-ring on the pin that comes through the side. I think the pump top has to come off, so you might as well put in a 3200 RPM governor spring while you're in there. Some of the aftermarket "power pins" allow the AFC pin to travel too far. The AFC pin has a boat-tail shape, and...

    Dyno My Truck for Information Only?

    Only one guy does the driving - and he's not crawling around strapping down trucks between rounds. :rolleyes: He will follow your directions, if you have drugs you want turned on or a valet switch. They run 'em in top gear, that gives the best numbers. Their dyno is an inertia dyno, not a...

    2005 Fall Brawl

    You'd have to run that by Andy. I'm not too familiar with these new-fangled electronics, but if that totally disables the box I don't think there'd be a problem with that.

    2005 Fall Brawl

    If you live anywhere nearby, don't miss this no matter what you drive. The way the stock class works is this: The advertised flywheel HP of your truck is your goal. The closer you get to that goal, the higher you place. Kinda like bracket racing, except you don't get to pick your dial-in...

    Oil spraying turbo

    No. Oil out of the compressor is a sign of bad seals, a blocked drain tube, or high crankcase pressure.

    Getrag trans and cummins questions

    I have 5 quarts of Redline MTL in mine. It really improved the cold weather shifting. I've read that it can will the oil temp in a hard working gearbox, so if you tow heavy stick with the Mobil 1 5W-30.

    two problems

    Hi Beau- First one's easy. Take a 10mm combination wrench you don't care about and bend the box end 90 degrees. This will let you get on the nut from the front, use vise grips on the wrench to get enough torque to loosen and tighten the nut. I've heard of the vacuum switch on the cowl...
