Re: copy of etw1-overhaul.htm?

I think I might have something somewhere.
I'll have a look if I get some time this weekend.

Re: Locking hubs on M37?

I got mine from John at Midwest Military.
Don't remember the model #, but they are Superwinch.
I don't think that they are as good as the Selectro's, but for my mild ap, they are fine.
Keep the fixed hubs in the toolbox if there is a problem, an easy swap.

Do you know the TPI and pitch offhand if it's a non-standard one?

All good advice.
A battery disconnect, check old wiring and a marine gas tank
on the passenger floorboard are winners.
Search for front disc upgrade too!
Wecome to the madness!

I did it and was very satisfied. I also matched it to a Pertronics coil. Much hotter spark. I do have one little bit of advice if you are a bit OCD/ paranoid like me. My truck lives in an area subject to frequent close lightning strikes ( fire lookout) . I have lost ALL my electronics in everything ...

I rewired my sled from scratch but I have done many harnesses before. I like to lay them out on the ground and kind of " visualise" where everthing is going. I also like to "map out" in my mind the schematic and match that to the harness on the floor to the schematic. Do you have...

You are of course correct as far as rotation.
It is the normal firing order.
I used the distributor to find the cylinder and assumed the wrong direction
of rotation in my description. Sort of like reverse and backwards both at once
luckily for me rendering my job the right way round. -(-)=+
Tnx.

As far as "Redneck Engineering " goes. About 15 Yrs ago one of my teenage stepkids was trying to get my goat. He told me that he thought I was a Redneck Hippy. I thought about that for a couple of blinks and said " That is about as good a description of me that anyone has ever made.&q...

I set the engine at TDC on #1 I mark the bumper and freeze the degree wheel and lock the pin into the hand crank starter nut. Turn clockwise till the 240 deg mark is on the mark on the bumper, set the next set of valves...

A new tool

I have come up with another idea that has probably been around since Ponchus was a pilot. I was visiting my sled this weekend and I am still chasing the hard starting after 6 weeks with large atomized particles coming from exhaust. I was adjusting valve lash again and came up with this. It worked gr...

I just went and got stainless screws at the local hardware store.
10's and 12's if I remember correctly, can't remember if they are NC or NF though. Easy enough to tell when you look at them.
