What have you done to your square lately??

Rub it in...

It would have been a 77 Chevy Suburban in a perfect world, Cordova Brown with Bucksin in the middle, tan vinyl interior, and a tailgate, Trailering Special, and 3.73's.

Cheap azz dealer that ordered Goldie new didn't even go for the skid plates ...



At least they ordered the rear ac.

Perfect woulda been!!

Perfect woulda been!!

That's what the old one was !

400, manual locks and windows- well, except for the rear , and full time 4wd.

Aaahh ...

Checked the transfer case tonight on a lark. Top plug is full when it weeps out, right ?

Effin reddish gusher. Fut.

Could an overfull transfer case cause a weird noise at highway speeds ?

I know it can cause a hole in my pocketbook due to labor ...

Basically a burb of my truck

Look at all those bumper thingies.

Those things find me somehow. I don't even particularly care for them. I've even offloaded several pairs over the years.

I like that far one.

That truck was built by @crazy4offroad and there's a novel of a build thread on it. It's quite a read if you have the time.

Might have transmission fluid leaking into transfer case causing the over fill condition. Check transmission fluid level too

Yup - I think that is 100% the case.

Not worried about the NP205 as they are supposed to be bullet proof, but if an overfull condition can cause funny noises then problem located.

If not, new problem.

Either way, add it to the list.

Not sure what a 40 year old truck translates into people years but I do know old people leak, too ...

Got my newest addition running smoothly (finally). Had replaced plugs, wires, all filters, rotor, etc... still couldn't get it to stop backfiring through the intake under load. Today I finally had time to straighten out the vacuum mess, check the mechanical advance, the vacuum advance and finally check timing. Found that the timing was 4 degrees off, reset it to 8 BTDC and man does she run smooth now.

I'll be pulling them off of the Suburban at some point. One has a little rust on it though.

I may be wrong, but I don't think the np205 takes atf, but gear oil. In which case, the mixing of the two may be problematic.

The later ones called for ATF. I'm not sure if running ATF in an older one would cause problems though.
