    Replacing suspension

    Had to cut bolt's on front spring rear mount, pics are of a leaf spring front end with Dana 60 axle, shocks bolt right up, not rear.

    Hot hot should my e4od run?

    According to Hayden coolers website 180 is a good operating temperature, cooler thick fluid doesn't lubricate or flow as well, most oil thermostats work in that range also, going to put there 696 cooler in my 72 Olds 88 (TH400)

    Diff covers.

    Aeriation is a vital but overlooked property of oil, always creates heat if too much, in hydraulic usage it becomes critical. Small ribbing inside of cover will help heat transfer also, surface area increase, could affect oil path positively also, examine/study air/oil cooled engines.

    Putting this truck back together, ft. trans seal went out, found flex plate was trashed may have contributed to demise. New R&D HD turbo flex-plate kit will solve that problem. Trans rebuilt again, #3, twice by PO. Looking for a check list of things to check before trans goes back in, mainly...
