    1986 Automatic Transmission Leak

    Thanks for the tech advice! Parking rod removed. As you can see, mysterious object does not fit head of rod…much smaller. Suggestions on where to pick up new rod/assembly?? I see them on eBay. Also, is the rod/assembly Th700R4 specific?

    1986 Automatic Transmission Leak

    Already have pan/filter/fluid removed. I’ll check out this tool, YouTube videos and disassembly options. As for the seal, looks like I can pick one up at Summit. Thankfully, it’s close by. Hoping item in pan is something insignificant… Thank you for the reply!

    4wd indicator light wiring

    EvilGenius, I’m in need of your evil genius for my 86 K5. I really appreciate your work on this thread. It helped me get my 4WD shift indicator light working properly with an American Autowire wiring harness. Ended up tapping into parking light wire on light switch. Now that I’ve rewired...

    Greetings From Middle Ga

    Hello All, New member here. Early 40’s dude with an 86 K5 Silverado. Had this ol boy since I was 17. Currently running a rebuilt 350/carb setup (originally came with the 305/TBI, I do believe) and TH700R4 trans. Not sure about the transfer case. Nothing fancy other than some Hooker headers...
