I thought that these tapered kits were done by 4Wheel West. I believe that AA resold them for a while. They are not made anymore. I would doubt...
I am certain that the crank flange bolt patterns are identical between the 225, 231 and 252 engines. I believe the 350 Buick V8 is the same as well.
The 435 is a good one too. It shifts just great. One way to get these truck trannies to shift a bit better is to run a 50wt mineral oil - I...
Larger tires = possibly running the engine in its optimum zone, which can have a significantly positive effect on mileage. And, you don't have to...
Here is one how-to writeup I know about ;-) http://www.novak-adapt.com/knowledge/pinto.htm Now, the T18 or NP435 idea sounds cool. I believe that...
The linkage rods are my vote. Do a rebuild and pull the rods and chuck them in a lathe/drill/mill and spin them for a minute against very fine...
I really prefer both axles being offset for offroading. Clearing obstacles is quite a bit easier. I don't think there are too many compelling...
Flipping your CJ onto its tailgate with a 401 couldn't be easier. You'd surely need to upgrade the radiator for cooling. They are toasty motors.
Vortec V8? AMC 304 with EFI? Ford 5.0L?
I like the bigger tires theory. What is your axle ratio now? How about an AX15 transmission? You can marry it up to your AMC engine directly -...
T14 shifters are so hard to find. I don't know any companies that make new ones and the dismantlers often cut the canes of the used ones when...
How junky is "junk"? Not worth a rebuild? The Dana 18 transfer cases usually recondition very well, so long as there is not serious gear damage or...
Try this chart, about 2/3 of the way down on this page, for a size and part number. Most Napa, AutoZone and local parts houses can cross these...
What year is your 4.3 and what did it come out of? I may have a diagram and can try to decode it. It may be the constant 12v power wire to the...
The SM465 is natively shorter than the T5, but would be about the same length with the 300 adapter. It is a tough transmission - as strong or...
