Fleece Sure Flo Performance Sending Unit. This is the ticket. Spendy, but looks like a great set up. Plus eliminating some very old parts

Lift Pump Suction
So I have a FASS titanium series waiting at the house for me to get home and do the install. What’s the consensus on suction? Draw straw or sump?

Wish I could help you. I need to do this to mine also. I did not know that this could be activated by a dealer. My plan at this time was to do it with a Quadzilla w/Iquad tuner that is high on the to do list. How much did your local dealer want? I hate to think what mine would want at 165.00 an hour labor

New rubber for the old girl
I’m real leary of tools from Amazon, but I’m not a fan of the prices of Jim’s either. Decent quality?

Thank you for what you do- Is there a foolproof way to tell if I need a heater treater?
Thank you Sir- 16" Wheels suggestions?

- NV450 5speed blew at 184k miles.
Were you able to get the truck up high enough to sit or were y’all on your backs?. I’m sure they’re heavy. That one we did in that square body yrs ago was real heavy- NV450 5speed blew at 184k miles.
Did you have your pick up on a lift . Did you have a good transmission jack? I helped a buddy do a clutch years ago on a square body Chevrolet. ( my only real transmission experience) What a s@#$show that was😂. Laying in the dirt underneath the truck manually bench pressing the tranny into the pilot bearing- 5th gear
Thank you. I’ll look for your thread- 5th gear
I value your opinion and I appreciate your time. Hope you don’t mind if I continue to pick your mind for a bit. Had you done anything with 5th gear before it grenaded? How many miles on the tranny? Is the countershaft bearing another weak spot on these transmissions? Have you looked at a 5600 conversion? Did you rebuild your 4500? Believe it or not I am of the same opinion about knowing something was done right. I just hate throwing good money after bad. I want to start using this pickup to run back and forth to AZ and tow a medium sized fifth wheel and I abhor the idea of slinging fifth gear and running 1000 miles or better home in 4th gear.- 5th gear
I’ve never physically been inside of one these, so bare with me please. If there is a failure won’t the gear and nut be out of there original position? This should allow plenty of shaft access for a cut off wheel? Thanks- Howdy from PNW
I work offshore, so I’m not able to get all the info required at this time to fill out garage. I’ll update when I get home. Thanks- 5th gear
The only thing I see it complicating later after a failure is taking it apart. The shaft is junk from day one, so when it comes time to take it apart, cut it in half with a cut off wheel remove the damaged section to complete disassembly. Am I missing something?- Curse of the 5th gear nut!
I’ve been kicking this around for a few months and from what I see the after market replacement nut packages don’t really hold up any better than original equipment. This is why i thought id weld the original nut instead of buying the aftermarket junk. I started a new thread on this instead of hijacking this one - My Personal Opinion
