    Wire identification to alternator and from glow plug harness

    I need help identifying some wires that were hooked up to the alternator in a …not factory way, as I’m rewiring a new 1 wire alternator in. I just want to know what the wires do essentially and where they were supposed to go. - from the firewall there is a loom with a red, yellow, green with...

    to grease or not to grease, that is the question

    Thank you everyone for the helpful info and suggestions. Ill throw it in there tomorrow with a dab of grease. The funny thing about all of this is, when i opened up the original transfer case, there was nylon shavings everywhere, and the metal on the fork was worn down, and some plastic bushings...

    to grease or not to grease, that is the question

    My transfercase jacked up on me a week ago, so I have another to throw back in, and yes its the correct one. The only question is, do I grease the output shaft from my tranny to go into the tc? and if so, what lube do you guys recommend? also, a friend told me not to worry about getting a gasket...

    Wiring help!

    I was trying to hook up a radio today. The person who had the truck before me had the radio wiring hacked up with no original connectors. In the process of connecting the new wires , I accidently left the hot wire (green with yellow stripe) unattended for a split second and it found bare metal...

    At any rate, what transfer cases will mate up? It's an 85 and I believe all stock.

    C6 Grinding in 3rd

    Rebuild it because it pops out of gear? Has anyone experienced this before and diagnosed the actual problem without just switching cases? I had no idea the transfer case had its own oil pump to circulate the fluid...

    C6 Grinding in 3rd

    I worked up the balls to drive it with one foot on the transfer case lever keeping pressure against it in 2h. It came out of gear one time but I just shoved my foot a little harder and it was fine. What causes the transfer case to keep popping out of gear like this? This sound familiar to anyone...

    C6 Grinding in 3rd

    Update. Got the tc and tranny drained and refilled. Went for a drive and boom, the grinding and the truck slowly came to a stop while it kept grinding. I tried shifting it to park, but the grinding got worse, same with 2nd and first. So I moved the transfer case to neutral and the sound went...

    C6 Grinding in 3rd

    Dropped the pan today. couldn't really find any shiny particles of metal, but I did find a few pieces of crap that looked like grinded up stone? maybe it was something made out of pot metal? Either way, the oil was still in good shape, so i replaced the screen with a new one, and bolted it up...
