don't hold your breath
Replaced the in tanke pump and made and access panel...
yes, I am a dumbass and cut on the outsideof the four holes, but I made every thing turn out decent.
Runs better. It was cutting out alot at random, like it was not getting fuel for a second. If I gave it some throttle, it would not do it.
I think I need to adjust or "tighten" up the steering box. IS this possible? The steering linkages are all brand new, the gear box is couple years old and pump is not too old, and it was recently aligned. I can turn the wheel alot left/right with not much turning. Just does not feel tight.
I bought a Detroit gift certifacte for any Detroit for $375, so I am just waiting on my rear locker to get hear. It is usualy about $525 new.

i dunno what kind of box you have, but mine has an adjusting stud on top. tighten it very little, then check. and so on. if you get it too tight it'll jerk the steering wheel out of your hand while your driving. i dont know if this is a common occurance, but its the result i got from getting mine too tight on my truck in high school.
yeah the proper way to do this is jack it up and put on jack stands then you tighten and loosen till you getit to where it feels better, also john have you checked if the steering shaft coupler or rag joint is worn out.
He who dies with the most **** wins, after seeing your collection you are in the lead no doubt!
I suspect the rag joint as well. I am going to mess around with the box tomorrow, see if I can figure it out.

New Detroit straight from TracTech. Ended up only spending $375 to get it. Retails for over $520. I bought a free locker gift certificate off Lonestar. Now I just need rear 4.88s and tires and rims and better steering
I think I am really more excited about the sticker

awesome, and you're on your, what, 3rd DD since starting on it?
Looks sweet!
Just got back from wheeling this weekend. It has been a long time since I have really wheeled anything, but it came back to me.
The lockers just amazed me. The truck walked up everything I pointed it at. The suspension, axles and motor all worked great. The throttle spring is sticking a little bit, causing it to run pretty high rpms unless I popped the hood and fixed it.
I did get alot of body damage, which I am still getting over
Here is some pics...

Most of the drivers damage was done on a tree when KRigg was pulling me out of a creek trail
