    No Rear Gear

    Thanks guys, I plan on calling gear vendors tomorrow, they have always seemed helpful when problems occur on their stuff. I will also try the solenoid too. Thanks again Bill

    The gv is after the tc. I did not try in 4hi.

    No Reverse

    Just drove the truck. All foward gears work great with no slipping and the gv works too, shifts really nice in foward gears. If you accelerate hard and then let off the gas there is a little shimmy like the gv wants to disengage. Same thing when slowing down in second to a stop sign. It...

    I thought clutch too, but it works fine in foward, grabs and drives perfectly, I thought if a clutch went all gears went. How would I pinpoint it to the clutch? Thanks for the response.

    No Reverse

    All, I went to go back up today and something was slipping bad but I was moving backwards. Then no slipping and no moving. I put some oil in the gear vendors thinking that is what it was, went to go back up and it was slipping until I hit 2500rpm and then started to back up well. I came back...

    Lagging Tach

    Thanks Guys, Ordering a new one might have to wait a little bit but, the problem only occurs intermittently, I just wanted to make sure it was a sign of a bigger problem. I still can't believe STATE beat them, they lose to every other team but beats a team that beat WVU. I just don't get...

    Lagging Tach

    No, the rpm's sound normal when it is registering that low.

    Lagging Tach

    I seems lately that my tach is lagging at startup. It will sit at 200 rpm or so for about 45 sec, then jump up to the normal amount. It doesn't happen everytime though. What is causing this and is this a sign of a bigger problem? Thanks

    I've been bitten...

    Thanks for the response, this was just something running through my head when thinking about a truck, air bags and whatnot.

    I've been bitten...

    What about the safety of the newer vehicals versus the older ones. Especially if you have kids. I have thought about getting an older truck and building it the way that I want instead of getting a newer one but aren't the newer ones much safer?

    No lights or turn signals on rear pass. side.

    I had a similar problem and it was the connector on the wiring harness that the light twisted into.

    Hard Start

    I found 6 that tested at 2 or less ohm and 2 that did not even read. I am assuming those are the bad ones. Geo, I did not see a big box on the right side, is it the controller you are talking about? I have a big black box with two large yellow wires to it back by the oil pressure sending...

    Hard Start

    What kind of resistance should I be looking for on the glow plugs to tell if they are good or bad.

    Hard Start

    I am having a hard starting issue, the truck used to fire up almost immediatly in this temp, now it takes a little while. What I have noticed is that I wait for the WTS to come off then it cranks for about 8-10s and does not fire, I turn the key off and then back on and wait for the WTS light...

    Wierd brake feel....

    About a year ago I had changed the master and booster, after a while the pedal started to feel weird again, found out the master was bad, put on a new master and it felt great, I actually had brakes and now this has been happening for a little while, I wonder if it is the pump. Anyway, I...

    Wierd brake feel....

    Big Rig, when the pedal was becoming stiff would you have very little brakes or would they grab and lock up the rear wheels. I've been having a problem my pedal being stiff at times and locking up the rear brakes but only intermittently, also the brake light goes on and off when I am sitting at...

    Brake Light

    The brake light on the dash comes on when I'm at a full stop and the blowers are on. The wierd thing is it will only come on when I lightly touch the brake pedal (just enough to stop me from rolling at a stop light) and if I push the pedal harder it goes away immediately. It also seems more...

    Emergency Brake Won't Latch

    When depressed the e-brake used to latch and stay, This morning it latched but slipped off whatever holds it. When I put it back on it won't latch there anymore, I have to push it farther down and it feels like it's only holding on by a hair. Whats going on and what do I have to replace? Thanks

    Intermittent and normal low high wipers just stop

    Riot, mine did the same thing, intermittent stopping in all positions, it turned out to be the motor.

    Brake Fade

    You can check the master by disconnecting the lines and plugging the master and then seeing if it fades. It could also the rabs valve, if it has antilock. By checking the master that way it would tell you if it is in the master or after the master.

    wheel bearing question

    You need a inner and outer bearing and the bearing races that apply to the specific bearings. I am not sure if the race comes with the bearing. The races are pressed into the hub and should be replaced when you do the bearings. I do not know what you are talking about when you say cup or...
