    Helicoil starter bolt hole

    That was my other idea. I had heard about Alumaloy/Castaloy to fill the hole then drill and re-tap it but I have no experience with it

    Helicoil starter bolt hole

    The starter bolt mounting hole seems to be at an angle My inserts always end up coming out like this when I put the bolt in I am using a 3/8" 16 X 1.50 insert for a 3/8" 16 x 4-5/8 bolt Maybe i just didnt drill out the hole far enough?

    Top post battery conversion

    I want to convert the battery in my 88 K1500 to a top post battery (for obvious reasons lol.) Besides replacing the cables What do i look for in a battery? Do i just match up the cold cranking amps and physical battery size?

    I know the transfer case being in neutral would cause the truck not to move but, would it allow the truck to stay running in gear without the clutch pushed in? Trying to figure something out from a previous thread

    NV3500 problems

    It feels like its going into gear. When i pulled the transmission out, i connected the shifter and went through all the gears. Everything was fine

    NV3500 problems

    NV3500 problems

    What about symptoms of a blown transfer case? I have the 241C behind the trans which, i believe has the vehicle has to be moving in order to shift. Probably should have elaborated more on "Messing around", i meant he kept shifting back and forth rapidly between the drive modes (4hi, 4lo...
