Sick build man! You planning to paint the body?

If my nv5600 ever goes south I want to hook up a 6 or 8 speed such as this to my truck.

Absolutely we are interested! I’m at 133k miles but this is going to happen to my rig long before I scrap it! Keep posting pics and or start a new article!

Thanks guys!

I know this stupid but what do you mean towards oil? The vac pump or the gear case? ThMks guys!

Nice!

Anyone have recommendations on a new gearbox? I’m sick of 3 inches of steering wheel slop lol. Napa has a reman box for 179$ plus core but not sure if a reman is ok?

A few months ago I noticed a small amount of oil on the ground and traced it to the vacuum pump/ PS pump are and resealed both pumps. Went a while without seeing any more oil until tonight I pulled the truck into the shop and an hr later noticed a 3 in dia puddle. It looks like it is either coming from vacc pump or front main or timing cover. The front half of he truck is plastered with oil which is very disturbing to me. ( no more rust is a + side lol) Cleaned up things good with brake cleaner and we will see what happens. Any idea why the pump would leak again so soon? Look like it’s possibly coming from where the pump mounts to the gear case. Really hoping I don’t have to put a front main or gear case seal on....

Ok thanks guys. I seem to shift about 2000 - 2200 normal and 24-2600 when I’m getting on the happy pedal. I was just not sure if I was shifting to low or to high.

Just a quick question here. What rpm do you guys typically shift gears at?

Never heard of it. I’m switching to Sheaffers next go round.

Nice truck Zach mlhow many miles?

Clean truck man!

Feeling bad for you Mike. It sucks having expensive little surprises like that. Hope you get everything ship shape soon!

So is the cuase of premature valve wear high boost? Is something of concern in my application or a wear item down the road when I have more miles?

Why do you say injectors need backedbup just curious? Iv got 75s and a boost fooler. Fairly laggy but not bad power and good mpg

I would be supris d if that pump lasts long. Look into the Airdog raptor series they’re a high quality affordable pump. Either crank that pressure down or get a better pump unless you have $$$$ for a new IP.

What lift pump did you get? 40 psi is way to high. Like Martin said 17-14 are your majic numbers.

Ahh his stuff is great sipping as we speak!

I honestly am way to addicted to coffee. I drink 6 cups every day sometimes more.

Up at 530 or 6 every morning! Used to be 5 but I got a new job.

Got mine at Car Quest it was a Dorman part.

I’ll try that!

Checked the grounds and thy are clean...

What causes this?
