Evan

Have you done the one peice lenses like that. I was unsure about them so steered clear when i orderd my houseings. Went with two peice How much are those hid. Link didnt take me anywhere

Spent 40 minutes on the phone with transgo talking about the 47re valve body and pro recalibration kit. I wanted to make some refinements but didnt want to pretend i knew what i was doing. This phone call went very well told him i was shifting late 2500 he talked speeds and gov pressure and tv cable. Told him i didnt want to back of tv to shift sooner. What we found is i had tv minumum out of wack. Unhooked tv and still shifted at 2500. So then he went over things that would cause late shifting. A sleeve installed backwords, sticky valve, miss adjusted minumum. And a spring. Turned out i was out of wack on minumum. Was able to measure where i had it compared to his notes. I reset that and didnt touch pressure left it set at max 185. I had tv stop at about .5" out i set it at at .7 and shifts happen at 1900-2000 light throttle and 2200 mod throttle 2500 getting after it alittle. Transgo spec is minumum stop is out .905 i elected to not go that far. He ssid .7 - .9 is a good range I have no need to see wide open shifts. Tv was verified to pull valve full open at full throttle. Surprisingly shifts are even quicker and crisper now and truck scoots through the gears even faster He had notes stored thst arent in the kit instructions that were very helpfull. Im freaking very happy with the driving characters and how this truck now moves down the road. No more rubber streching feel. When i had pan off nothing abnormal . I reused fluid since no real reason to change it yet. Will do a service ounce its got a couple thousand miles on it. Check bands though ive found bands rarely need adjusted if they're healthy these are new. For what its worth this hole transmission refresh/build has gone very well. Ive learned alot from revmax aswell as some local guru builders. I still have no clue what im doing but its working talking to people. Ive found the internet is hit n miss on real good help. Seems a jumble of randomness kinda like this thread. Actually making phone calls and eye contact is huge to me.

Havent been able to find a photography or photo page in off topic section or anywhere. Havent yet looked super hsrd for it.

Didnt the truck have a hy35? If so the hx35 is good step up. What was the final decision on turbo? Id definitely push the 62 64 12 hybrid thing over the smaller hx35

Could no power no boost point to stock injectors being plugged up pushing eratic fuel spray. Then bumping fuel parameters regains power and boost

Is that the blue truck painted?

I wonder of front end was intalled correctly likecnut on cv shaft, lug nuts . Possibly the unit bearing screaming giving signs that was about to hit the eject button. I aint gonna lie i like big tires currently running big tires on 3rd gen 17" wheels with 1.5" spacer to mach dana 80 width.

Man thats freaking sick

I think you need a exhaust manifokd that that turbo was bolted to. Or possibly a machine shop could mill a adapter plate I think the vgt is the 351. Did some quick reading and nothing at a glance would make me want to swap out my 62 turbo for a 351vgt and exhaust manifold. But that was just a quick glance

So Mike let me come hes selective about that ;) Lots been going on. Picked up a f150 to drive while my truck was down but ended up giving it to my daughter. So i was out a daily driver stuck driving our work truck a 04 cummins. My tourque convertor went out with 170k on it. So i bought one local after seeing the guts they put inside The convertor in my truck was supposed to be low stall it was stock, didnt have a one peice fiber, it wasnt brazzedd for support basically the cheapest thing you could get So i got a lower stall billet piston brased, one peice fiber, reamed for more volume. So i decided to tear the case down Like completly down Orderd the gpz clutch kit from revmax a set bushings for the trans, seals throughout out. Made the tools to press it apart and together. Was scared a few times i did it wrong. Over drive took me 3 attempts to be confident i had it right. Over drive unit with 4" exhaust pipe in the press Long peice of pipe because intermediate shaft is inside to line up over drive unit. that is a 830lb spring in overdrive unit For some the transmission has always been the most interesting part if the truck for me. I now kinda know how the fluid flows but still no clue how it actually works. It just does i guess. Also talked to dynamic alittle bit hes a big help. On tearing down my trans i found a basically stock tranny. Oem fiber counts with a kevlar front band pretty dissapointed in this find. Revmax kit puts more fibers with machined pressure plates to fit them. The raybestos gpz fibers are supposed to be good. The valve body already had the transgo tfod kit in it so leave well enough alone. Nope i picked up the transgo pro recalibration kit. The recalibration kit is pretty in depth took me a few hours to go through step by step. As in all things some love this kit and some hate it saying it run uneeded pressures. The kit supplies special seals to withstand the pressures on forward clutches all forward gears now capable to see full pressure All in all it took about 2 weeks for me having no clue what im doing to follow the atsg book step by step. I maybe could have done it without the book but k owing where and how to check fir clearances and end play was critical. I did price local shops but 3-6 weeks out and 3500-5000 price guestimates made me pull the trigger and chance it. It did turn out well this transmission is freaking tight were as the last refresh was like a loose rubber band and i thought that was good. With the extra clutches lower stall better convertor and reworked valve body she will pull a house down without touching the throttle Ounce on the throttle it flat goes no slipping crisp firm quick shifts. Zero hunting any where Ive bumped smarty tourqe to 6 on catcher 9 . Before it would slipp on the bottom . So had tourqe at 4 Seriously thinking about getting a real programmer like you guys all run now. notice the park rod clip At the end of the atsg book you put the over drive unit on and it congratulates you for finishing. Im like yup if it even works. Im now watching for another 47re so i can slow build it over a couple years. Anyways ive got a few hundred miles on my tranny now one that this time i actually know whats inside because i put it there . So far realy liking it. One of those things where it shifts gears the turbo screams and you just grin n push the pedal down alittle farther Anyone can do this the 727 is pretty easy to work on with the picture book in hand Ive orderd seat foam/covers, door grab things that hold armrest on, head light lenses cheap clear to put the morimoto leds in (still badass) Guess well just run this truck till it turn to dust Ill be doing away with the casto vwashers on front axle and fabbing adjustable lower control arms to be able to set castor easily and not have it change while driving. Fixed fuel leak on return line on back of the head while trans was out. Verfied it doesn't still leak there. Still havevantitheft active as you have to prime pump to start it. Can still smell it but dont know where its leaking. Randamn sunset i shot and me in night jeep run with the crew. Thanks mike for allowing me back. Ive been unable to post for quite while but have lurked here and there glad to see lots of old names . Also got a new phone and lost mikes number and a few of yours that i knew were in contact with mike. Then today i noticed i most likly could get mikes contact info back from the dark deep web and i was correct. Walla good to be back

You know sometimes I wouldnt mind dissaperaing without a trace My children will soon lose theyre mother to cancer if covid doesnt take her. Im trying to figure out how to fill her shoes and do this for her. She was my wife we are closer now then when we were married. This is one incredibly ****** up world Knowing is far harder than not knowing So no, people missing in idaho is no concern of mine many come here to drop of the grid and dissspear on purpose Post it up in New York maybe get a better response there Hows that for All the sudden getting a look into someones life who really no longer cares

Ohhh so nothing. People go missing everywhere.

Road 6000-9000ft 4ft of powdee in upper basins also rode some shitty snow. Had gopro footage but camera decided it wanted to stay on the mtn. Log hoping is fun the powder the down trees are fun to jump off of. There much harder to crosd sidehill and uphill Had a blast today. I will not be able to get enough of this.

What arent we hearing about?

Ohhh yes prices are crazy. I built my sled bike so im not in it to bad. But the bike is new. I used to live on kx dirt bikes but never in the snow

Mike if your wheel chair ridden as pictured with blinders on to snowmachines n snow bunnies I guess I can kinda understand as youve already got a snowbunnie rounded up.

Im sure they go buy your house in pickups all weekend. your in the Land of snow bunnies and snow machines put a couple ours on it changed oil. headed up trinity mtn this weekend. 9000ft mtn Mike idaho gave birth to these machines then polaris bought them. These arecthe coolest Videos the girl rides the snow bike in a bikini on water towards the end. Some amazing filmography

Mostly Wolf tracks. Cat tracks every ounce in awhile. Hoping this is the smarty doing this. First time ive heard the 3 high hidle.

Haha I standvmore on the dirt than snow. Scott and I have been friends since I was 12 hes 46. Camera is on him hear the unsureness in my voice when he tells me to just go over there. Im new to this. Just go over there through the down trees and sidehills. Mikes house is in a perfect riding ares. We'd be headed there if could trust the road to stay open These things actually run to cold in the snow. Like 130 deg. Ive got a tstat and coolant System stuff order to heat bars with coolant. Coolant System can Bypass one radiator as needed. Should get temps up to 200deg.

Ive made a horrible mistake and have been sledbiking with a buddy riding his bike. I used to do the dirt bike thing 20 years ago. Im now 39 maybe this is a crisis whatever it is ill take it. Th we green thing is almost ready. Ive never done drugs but this must be like all the best ounce at ounce pumping through my veins
