You jumped in quick before I added the last line lol

I was swapping out a bad battery (i have two) and i had forgotten to to the accessory power off. The wrench sparked once, but otherwise everything went smoothly. However, now my flashers won't come on in any capacity, and the electric tach, and EGT gages no longer work. i am hunting down and...

"fortunately" this has been such a long project there were never many miles put on the vehicle at all, and it sat for the last 2+. Ot drives (predictably) better than ever now! All new sideframes, floor panels, clutch master and slave, brake master, servo, wheel cylinders and lines. New lights...

Sorry, it took me so long to catch on. I am rightly embarrassed.

@Grebby man. . . .ok so I KNOW 2-3 years ago when I was driving this I had it in what I thought was 2wd. . .means I must have had the diff locked the whole time. In fact it came to me that way to me, because I know I didn't mess with the TCase. I mean better late than never but this is soooo late.

@tottot it is a 1978, but it came with the old NA 2.5 diesel. It is definitely a Frankenbtruck. Thats' why i am happy to bolt it together any way that works. It seems that you and @Grebby are telling me the front hubs should always be locked. is that correct? if so i have been killing myself...

OK I think I had my head wrapped around this. So I have proved my Tcase CAN send power to the rear axle, it just isn't unless the diff is locked, meaning that (since both front wheels are on the ground) something is disconnected in the front axle. The vehicle moves with the front hubs locked...

UPDATE: I think my Tcase selector linkage may have been put in wrong/weird. After messing with it a lot, I put it as far back and to the left as it would go. This to me should be High-locked. The rear driveshaft is finally spinning, but when I lift the rear end, it is only one tire. There is an...

tottot, Thank you for the reply. I am dying over here and the helps means a lot. The vehicle is on the ground in my garage. The only way the vehicle will move is with the front hubs locked. I have tried putting the Tcase is every position i can. With the front unlocked the front driveshaft...

Hello, I am trying tonget my '78 Santana 109" with a 200tdi-lt77-lt230 up and moving after years. I thought I had it, but the monster has other plans. Here's the issue in as much details as I can muster: I shift into gear and I have no drive. I just installed a new clutch master and slave and...

Greetings, I have a Series III with a 200tdi/LT77 conversion. It has been sitting a couple years. I went to move it and the clutch went to the floor. I replaced the clutch master and slave cylinders. I can not get the transmission to operate correctly. : With the vehicle off i can select any...

7bar is like 101psi. don't run that much :P If you are shortening the wastegate actuator and not getting increased boost then you have a boost leak or faulty wastegate. More likely the boost leak.

They are, I am sorry, i just miss-typed.

True, but i had been told that the tubeless rim could accommodate the tubeless tire. Possibly i misunderstood. i am thick like that.

It says right in the add you gave me that they fit 15.7mm rim hole. That's the 5/8" that i have already tried and it was too small.

Anyone else have any advice on this. i can't find anything larger than a .625 rim hole, and that is not big enough.

I just tried .625" or 15.88mm wide valves and they leak. and are genrally too loose. i will look for 19mm

I am replacing my tires/tyres with some nice fenderal 235/85 r16's i got. These are replacing the tubed 7.5's. My tire fitter seemed to think the tire will fit fine being tubeless but mentioned i needed larger valve stems than what he carries. A little research show 5/8ths or .625 should be...

will do thanks for the lead.

Can anyone here confirm for me whether or not MOD Lt77's have a different (lower) gearing than non-MOD units? I seem to have lost 10mph of top speed after a transmission and transfer case swap.
