Jesus Christ, I wasn't asking for **** for free go reread for comprehension or something. 3rd grade usually teaches people **** like that, I guess it didn't stick for you. I also wasn't asking where to get them, I know where to get axles.Quote:

maybe you should reread for yourself, looks to me and everyone else that you are asking someone else to do the leg work for you. stop being a ***** and go buy $50 axle from a junkyard like normal people.Quote:

Can Somebody with a 92 to 96 look and see what all is grounded on the passenger fender and how many wires come off of the post right in front of the solenoid?
Why?Quote:

Yeah I do, but it doesn't show what grounds where, just that some stuff in the circuit grounds somewhere.Quote:

The truck ran when I loaded it onto a trailer to take it out to the farm but once it was at the farm, it wouldn't start anymore. KOEO test throws a 111 code and that's it.
Checked every milimeter of wiring including the pigtails? What brand of electrical components did you use? Duralast sucks dick and should not ever be considered an option...unless you're stranded.
The coil is from advance and the distributor is a remanned unit from autozone. Checked the wiring and the only thing I could find was the coil connector was fubar'ed so I just took the wires out and put them directly on the coil. They had spade connectors from inside the connector on them already.
Did you stab the distributor in the right spot.
so no spark, right?
put a test light on an injector and see if it blinks
Shouldn't matter, there's no spark at all, but it was marked on the plastic part that goes on top of the distributor that the cap attaches to.Quote:

Got it running, did the brakes and put in a F350 vacuum booster. Turns out there was a short in the wires near the ICM. Just finished the brakes so I haven't driven it to see how much it helped, but the pedal feels way more firm than before. Anything is an improvement over the old brakes. Also have a real bad exhaust leak at the passenger side manifold, might find some used headers to put on there, and a muffler.
I think the next things I'm going to do is finish painting it and hurculine the bed and the floor inside, then paint the hurculine inside gray to match the old carpet color. Has anybody done roll on liner inside? I was thinking 4 layers so it's real thick.
I did one layer. Its way too thin, I needed to do 3.
Get gray herculiner so you don't have to paint it.
Herculiner sucks anyways.
Herculiner does suck, just save up some money and pay someone to put a decent liner in, it will be worth the money
i did herculiner in the inside of my bronco, lots of prep and it held up great, but for a bed get a good spray in liner
Not related to any smog pump shenanigans (I'm leaving it in), but my battery was dead this morning, so I got out the test light and pulled fuses and noted which ones dimmed the light. Number 9 in the power distribution box (electronic engine control system, fuel pump relay coil) and number 13 in the regular fuse panel (stop/hazard lamps, stop sense for electronic engine control, abs, "Keep alive memory", electronic engine control, speed control) are the ones that in combination got the test light to just about turn off. Would a loose connector to the Ignition Control Module cause the battery to drain overnight? The connector was replaced last week and if the connector are in just the right position, the engine will die.
Test your battery? The cold weather is hard on them.
Happened with 2 batteries and the stupid light comes on for voltage. I got a new connector and am putting it on after my sisters basketball game.
Picked up some manual swap parts today, pedals, transmission access hole cover, the little cover for the guages so it won't say PRND21 anymore, and a few other small parts. Would it be okay to just take off the automatic shifter arm and put the manual steering column cover over it, and not swap the whole steering column? And would hydraulic clutch (master and slave cylinders) be alright used or would it be better new?
you can buy the master and slave used and then just buy the much cheaper rebuild kits from the local auto part store. It basically replaces all the internals of both while keeping the cheaper used body/housings.Quote:

Here's the parts list I've thought through as far as new parts for my manual swap.
Flywheel: OE replacement from summit (external balance, 11 inch clutch, 167 tooth)
Pilot bearing: National Brand from Oreillys
Throwout bearing: National Brand from Oreillys
Clutch: Centerforce LMC 11 inch from summit
Pressure plate: Zoom brand 11 inch from summit
Anybody know of anything up there that has a reputation of poor quality or that it won't work in this application?
centerforce clutches have a rep for being very on or off, zoom clutches arent too bad, but for you apllication i would just go with a performance parts store clutch. Also, from what i have read if you have the option, get the largest dia. clutch you can.
what transmission are you putting in?
11 inch is the biggest clutch I could findQuote:

One of the write ups I read said a ZF swap could use the same driveshafts as an E4OD so there wouldn't be the added cost of lengthening or shortening anything.Quote:
