May 26th is her birthday. Strange that the two of us have the 26th for birthdays. Then, strangely enough, our wedding day is the same as when we met—the 25th of June. Yes, we are still going to get married in public. @Tweety Bird asked for green today and not the dark green.

Inside too? That's tells me seal issue or pure abuse to have debris inside the tubes. Outside no problem. Just pressure washer the diff housing. You could pull the guts a pressure wash the inside too. Then air dry. Then dust with WD40 to retard rusting. Then paint the outside and load new guts (bearings and seals).

Remember the notation. 47RE 4 gears forward 7 on a 0 to 9 torque scale R ear wheel drive E lectronic Shift 4th Gear 48RE is the same mostly but the torque limit is higher. Plugs and connectors are most likely the hang up.

This will help on keyless entry on power door locks.

Hmmm... I've never had an issue like that where there is crud in the axle tubes.

Our last trip down to Boise ID we were going to dry camp with the RV as @Tweety Bird had medical appointments. While down in Boise / Eagle area Beast just died and jumped back to life.I called it and was the VP44. Fast forward we get home and park Beast beside the RV. Fast forward again yesterday i went to start Beast and move.Nope no start. Bummed I was going to have to work out in the yard. This morning I figure to try starting Beast again. Long crank but it started. Quickly move over the garage door so I could start the replacement. Managed to just get the pump out. Sad part is im not as strong as I once was and everything seems so very over tightened. Really its not im just that weak.

It was awesome to just take time away from the mess in my own yard. Even though both of us were worn out and really didn't do anything much while out here. The weather got cold and is snowing. We were up near Lost Valley Reservoir at an elevation of roughly 4,800 feet. The first two days were spent sitting at the dining table, looking out the windows at the storm rolling in and then rolling out and clearing up. Titanium was in hair and super simple, just black eyeliner and black eye shadow, then black lipstain. The focus was more on healing and rest. Which we did for the 4 days we were out there. We both enjoyed the dry camping so much that it will become a normal travel plan. Even with our medical requirements and doctor's visits, we can pull the RV down towards Boise and dry camp somewhere. If we need a more solid home base, I still have my friend "Muddy" in Parma, who is always looking forward to us stopping in. There will be more travel with us using Beast and the RV, more so for even shopping in Lewiston, ID. We can dry camp anywhere or stay at the Clearwater Casino, which is a full hook-up spot too.

We are still currently living in the RV as we start to unpack into the house again, @Tweety Bird and I enjoyed the dry camping we did up at Lost Valley Reservoir. We needed the break so badly that we never went fishing at all. We just enjoyed the quiet and lack of cell service. My phone had just 1 bar, which barely would work, and I was able to text a few friends and communicate with them. We had two days of a very cold and windy snowstorm. Even back home, I was able to catch the Mopar1973Man weather station once to see 17 MPH winds during that storm. Thor managed to pull the RV but not hing like what Beast can. Remember, Thor is a stock truck with slightly larger injectors, like +50 HP. The RV at 8,3xx pounds was a good tug to get up to 4,800 feet from 2,8xx feet here at home. Still, Thor managed a mere 13.5 MPG on the run out for camping and only came into town to pick up gasoline for the generator.

Here is the wiring map and fuse location.

I'm on a Valair dual disc clutch on both trucks. Beast, I got the AutoZone master cylinder and slave on. Yes, I'll admit it's a strong push on the pedal for the throw. Thor still has the Valair hydro's, but a much lighter pedal throw. Still feel the heavy springs of the pressure plate. Yeah, the mounting tab to break off means it's a lot of pressure pushing on the hydro's master? I've got to ask whether you over-adjust the rod? There shouldn't be any mechanical force on the master cylinder body unless the over-adjusted rod was allowing the piston to bottom out in the cylinder, causing the break mounting ears. Or is the plastic so weak that constant cycling of the clutch caused it to fail by breaking?

@Tweety Bird and I will be heading out to Lost Valley Reservoir. We are going to get away from the house to give us both a break. Time to go fishing! It's been a rough spring with weather issues and attempting to keep vehicles running. We are just both burned out. The new injection pump for Beast will be here on Monday. The owners of Mopar1973Man.Com are going to disappear to the lake. Take a weekend and rest and be free for a while.

Just gotta keep studying data as you fly low across the panel. You will find averages and things that your truck likes and dislikes. Just remember if you change settings that lower engine load and EGT's are a good thing. If you make changes and the EGTs and engine go up, then you are going the wrong way.
