    NP208 Blind Bearing Not Comin Out

    Update: Watched a couple of youtube videos and decided to take a run at it myself...put a rag in the case to minimize splatter cleanup and after about 60 secs of welding a bead around the inside of the race, I used my handy dandy thread road/pvc sleeve puller and came right out! The other blind...

    NP208 Blind Bearing Not Comin Out

    I have dove into rebuilding my NP208 and I have it torn down with the exception of the two blind bearings, one in the case and the other in the shaft. I don't have a pilot bearing puller or blind bearing puller (I did ordered one off Amazon but it got lost apparently) The case has been given...

    Wheel choices for 4x4

    I have the white spokes on there now but looking for something a little beefier looking and do a 2" lift...I liked the look of the first wheels I posted the best and realize there are pretty damn similar to the polished mags!?

    Wheel choices for 4x4

    You are correct, mine is a 1/2 ton and I was going to either use adapters or have them drilled and filled...you say no on the adapters eh? I was thinking that might be asking for it, I haven't had any experience with them. Those polished mags are pretty cool 45tt!! The problem I'm seeing is...

    Front drive shaft- lost orientation marks!!

    There indeed is a weight on the tube... I'm not opposed to taking it and having both shafts balanced (anyone have any idea how much that should run me?) as I am replacing 5 u-joints in total, a ball joint at the H and I'm also replacing the rear driveshaft yoke. All of the snap rings on the...

    TH350 Rebuild Questions

    Thanks Matt.. I have been switching back and forth between that link, a you tube video and this forum, haha... I think I got it right and hopefully will see sooner rather than later! Now I'm on to the transfer case and driveshafts but from what I remember that was pretty straight forward...

    Th350c rebuild or just re seal?

    If you have the time and about $150, you can rebuild with some simple mods to double the strength of your transmission. I just rebuilt my th350c and I have to say it was actually a good experience. Just complicated enough to feel a sense of accomplishment without throwing things across the...

    Front drive shaft- lost orientation marks!!

    That what I was looking at on the H-joint as it looks like it had some extra material on one side...I was then thinking that maybe that is the ONLY balanced part in a double cardan setup? If that joint was off balance to either side, wouldn't it throw the entire shaft off?

    Wheel choices for 4x4

    Wheel choices seems to be all over the board with Squares but the 4x4 hubs in particular pose a problem for a lot of wheels it seems? It also seems the spec'd centerbore is way larger than he actual hub? My thought was a late model take off wheel from an HD truck to clear the hubs and use...

    TH350 Rebuild Questions

    Hey All, So the place I ordered my kit from said it was good for a 350/350C...come to find out they didn't include the correct separator plate gaskets so they sent some out and they showed up today...I'm realizing that the lockup solenoid gasket wasn't in there either...can I just cut a new one...

    Tank replacement for EFI

    Seems like everything has!? Do you know if I can use the MSD fuel pump that comes in the kit with the sending unit?

    Driveshaft question

    I had no idea what it was either...we can both thank google! I'm not really sure in what application that 1/4" would actually make a difference in?!

    Tank replacement for EFI

    Thanks! Quick question, do you know if the '96 sending unit will work in the '87 tank? It's about 1/2 the price for whatever reason and looks very similar? Your my boy Blue! (hopefully the movie reference comes across, haha)

    Tank replacement for EFI

    I'm going to use the Atomic EFI as it is California approved on my 1981 Suburban...I too got the complete kit and am seeing that their fuel pump setup supplied is asking for failure...is it simply as easy as switching out the tank, sending unit and fuel pump from an '87? The truck sat for a...

    Noob here looking for help deciding wether to purchase a new crate motor or do an engine re-fresh

    Hey Rock, A California smog legal vehicle requiring bi-annual smog checks is a completely different beast than any other situation this forum will advise you on. Hopefully you can troubleshoot and it's something simple but if it's time to perform transplant surgery let me give you a very recent...

    Driveshaft question

    Yes, so the shaft is "counterbored" smooth for about 1/4" to accomodate an o-ring on a transmission. I haven't pulled apart the transfer case yet so I'm not sure if the o-ring is in that or not... however looking at the travel marks on the yoke I can't see 1/4" making a difference either way?

    Driveshaft question

    I think after getting an Internet education on driveshafts I have a driveshaft from a 3/4 ton 4x4... It is counter bored about 1/4" but I think it doesn't need it for a 1/2 ton application?

    Driveshaft question

    So I went to go replace the ujoints in my rear driveshaft and after making a mess and flinging needle bearing all over the garage I finally had them out. I bought new joints on Rockauto per the make/model/year and it looks like I may have, shock and awe, a non stock driveshaft. The transfer...

    Front drive shaft- lost orientation marks!!

    Keyed? I'm not sure I follow? On another note, I took out the rear driveshaft ujoints tonight and it looks like the yoke has seen some harsh times..should I replace this?

    Front drive shaft- lost orientation marks!!

    Hey All, I replied on another front driveshaft rebuild thread but I thought I should probably post my own as no to hijack! So I pulled the front driveshaft (along with the engine, transmission, transfer case haha) and going through the process of replacing the ujoints and center joint...well...

    Front Drive Shaft Rebuild

    Awesome write up Trout! I'm doing the same with mine and ordered up the center ball setup from Rockauto...waiting for the delivery. However I have run into a situation...after heating to get the old nylon out, then going to town cleaning off caked on mud and grease my marks are gone!!! Any...

    Front Driveshaft Seal

    For anyone else who has run across this, I found this to be the correct part for my 1981 K1500 Suburban: https://www.dennysdriveshaft.com/p1464_dana_spicer_d2n_slip_yoke_dust_cap_for_1.375_inch_1.779_id_t.html Here is a pretty good resource if that one is the wrong size...

    TH350 Rebuild Questions

    Ran into yet another hmmmmm.... moment....I was going to drill the 1/8" holes in the separator plate at the 2nd and 3rd but it looks like someone had gotten there before me.. the only problem is that they drilled the holes to 5/32"... that seems way too big and it would shift like a kicked mule...
