    Gear Splitters?

    Not at all!! That's why I was thinking of the higher gear. I know those runs can be a real bear sometimes and I thought the extra "gears" would help stay in the right torque/hp range. Was also thinking they might help in the decent. I've burned(damn near) the brakes up on the Suburban...

    Gear Splitters?

    I've been thinking about that! I'm looking at the Beech Mtn, NC area. We've been going up there for the last 18 years. Some of the runs are rather long, I could be hauling loads of rock, sod, firewood and would like to be able to pull a car/equipment hauler @ more than 15 mph. I'm...

    I'm sure the cable is working fine, It has done this consistantly from the time I bought the truck, under all conditions. It does have a leak in one of the hoses so I will check the oil again! One thing weird - their have been times when the selenoid would get stuck running, I would have to...

    Newbie with a trans prob

    Gear Splitters?

    I would love to see the that area of SD - have to plan that as one of our trips! What I understand (only from looking at the web, http://www.gearvendors.com/ )with the auto's it is actually like adding a half gear after each stock gear - thus turning a 4 speed into an 8 speed! And by...

    Gear Splitters?

    While on the subject of transmissions -- Does anyone have any experience with the bolt on gear splitters or maybe called under/overdrives? I think a company called Gearvendors makes one for the Auto trans. With hoping to move to the mtns in a few years I'm thinking I'll need three things...

    Newbie with a trans prob

    I didn't see anything(Probably there-I didn't see it though) about where the plug is for the 92's. I bought one of the analyzers for the Tbird - I think I need an adapter plug to hook into the beast!

    Engine Codes

    Thanks!! I'm figuring by the hole punched in the sticker by "A185" that it is the 185 HP. I don't think the pump has been replaced yet. I appear to have a fuel leak so I want to do that soon! I saw a link on one of the forums to a company that sold an aftermarket pump and injectors. Have...

    Newbie with a trans prob

    Thanks Joe, No, the speedo doesn't bounce. I was just reading the tech article on the FIPL. Their also appears to be a fuel leak on top of the engine, and with the miles I was thinking of replacing the injector pump and injectors - I'll look at changing the FIPL at the same time! On...

    Newbie with a trans prob

    Hello everyone! And thanks for all your help already - I've been learning alot from previous forums, but didn't see this exact problem. The "overdrive off" light flashes after driving for a few hundred feet. It use to just happen when I would back my trailer into the side yard(small hill to...
