    Windshield wiper wiring

    The truck is in a underground storage place a few miles away, so I wouldn't be able to get any pics soon..but I have the electrical diagrams . I took some pics which should give you a idea. You can likely reconnect the wires using the diagram..

    Windshield wiper wiring

    I assume someone cut the plug wires and you need the diagram? Also my wiper motor is a 2 speed non-pulse unit, so the wiring is even more simple...

    4.56 gearing

    That reduces your rpm a bit, I was wondering what taller tire would work with the dual wheels. I have 4:56s with 225/75/16 and run about 3000 rpm at 108 kms (67 mph). Do you have a Dana 70 HD? I wonder if they need a need carrier size to go down to a 3:73

    son of a gun!! cannot get hydro boost to bleed !!

    Hi guys, I got it figured out! I triple clamped the return lines and made sure the return hose was on the "straight part". I also had the return lines on the wrong nipple (located on the power steering pump) initially. I also found out the the box return line was coming loose due to a engine...

    son of a gun!! cannot get hydro boost to bleed !!

    Hi guys, Here is a video of the air bubbles I am getting ... I have been trying to get my hydroboost to bleed using this technique.. I have done like 1000 reps lol, I assumed air was in the system and changed a few things. Thinking that the air leakage was the problem, I installed a new...

    '88 dually

    Hi Ray, The truck is in indoor storage at the moment. I am probably going there next month to start to get it ready for spring. I could try to get the part # then... I guess you are using the TBI 2 piece aluminum bracket system? If so I just ordered a lower rad hose for like a '92 1 ton truck...

    Roller cam conversion or new engine

    If you are changing cams I would certainly go roller. There is a really high failure rate at break ins for flat tappets (including myself).. I used a Howard's retro fit or just re-use your old camshaft keeping all the lifters in order.. here is the Howard's camshaft...

    '88 dually

    another video, the truck is running way better now. I had a vibration problem due to a incorrectly installed flexplate. On the SBC stroker/400 cube applications it is important to have the various flexplate weights in the proper place..

    '88 dually

    I won't actually be racing yet, perhaps later in Aug-- The drag car needs some attention; fuel cell/fuel system install, bleed the brakes, suspension install, verify rev limiter, cooling fan control, electric shifter,get new slicks installed (mine are like 10 years old) I spent the last two...

    '88 dually

    I towed the drag car (1970 Chevrolet Monte Carlo) home Friday night. The flat tow went well!! I also found out (using a VIN search) that the truck likely spent it's first 14 years in Oklahoma (probably why the body is still in decent shape), then Virginia for 3 years and then New York state for...

    '88 dually

    Well, really enjoy driving this rig around the neighborhood! I got license plates and insurance for it so I can drive it with more confidence. I don't have the "heavy" rear bumper on yet so I am "keeping it local"...The existing electric cooling fan controller actually comes on after all! The...

    Hydroboost Brake pedal not retracting fully

    I took out the truck for "break in laps" around the neighborhood (for like 1 hour) and the brake pedal situation didn't occur. I guess the thing is; perhaps now the hydraulic assisted system is bled? What do you guys think of the moaning sound from the pump? Is this normal now?

    Hydroboost Brake pedal not retracting fully

    Hi Guys, I have a '88 1 ton with hydroboost assisted brake pedal. I finally got the truck on the road and was doing some "shake down" laps in my neighborhood. I have replaced the steering box,all the lines and the pump. Initially, I had problems getting the air out of the hydroboost system and...

    '88 dually

    Bought some tires, 4 rear used and 2 new fronts. The truck looks way better with the dual wheels in the back. For the used tires, I got (4) 8 lug aluminum American racing rims that fit a 2000's GM van. Perhaps someone will buy them. Hopefully solved PS line leak with new o-ring install. Put gas...

    Dually wheel install sequence

    Hi guys, unsure this is the proper section but I just want to confirm the proper "sequence" of the dual wheel install for my Dana 70HD setup. If you look in this video at the 35 second mark, it appears to be- put on first wheel inverted, then second wheel straight up, then the "centering...

    '88 dually

    I installed the rebuilt steering box and it doesn't appear to leak? BUT there are some small PS leaks still lingering after some PS/hydraulic system tuning. I am considering moving on and getting the PS/hydraulic leak free later. I might spend a lot of time trying to get it totally leak free...

    '88 dually

    The Grote 44891 fixed the hyper-flash turn signal problem I dropped off the leaky steering box at the local rebuilders, I figure they will do a much better job than buying one off the shelf..I frigged up the pitman arm stud again little did I know that there is a specific puller for that...

    '88 dually

    Played with it a bit more and confirmed all bulbs work, grounds seem good..I moved the F552 flashers from Hazzard light to blinkers outlets on the fuse panel and it seemed to make a difference on the flash rate. I even got the hazard lights to flash at the correct rate but then reverted to...

    '88 dually

    I installed the 4 new 3057s and the same issue..I removed the flasher while it was flashing rapidly and it still did the same..hmmm.. it did the same thing even when only the rear lights were in. I am using a Speedway universal wiring harness, with this old style relay--...
