    My "new" 4R70W

    The tailshaft is different. 4r75w has an increased number of teeth for the output speed sensor.

    Sometimes car hard to start

    Anyone decent at wiring should be able to repair or replace the harness. The corrosion inside the wiring is a common problem. Have installed several starters which required replacing a section of the harness for warranty to apply. Do you have complete loss of power at this point? Power to...

    Front Bumper Plastiweld

    Custom front bumper, but peeling paint on the fenders. It does look cool, but definitely sticks out too far. I have a spare bumper cover which needs to be fixed anyway, maybe I'll do some experimenting.

    ^^^Agreed. There should be an application process for potential owners of certain vehicles.

    Say good bye to New Blue and hello to Lead Foot!

    It happens unfortunately. I need to clean my carb, again, and replace brakes at this point. Thankfully the cab is solid and the bed only has minor holes where the saddle tanks had trapped detritus over the years. My '71 suburban is a different story. Might possibly have half a "cab" mount...

    What did you do to your car today?

    Finally found an Ebay trans within my used trans price range. Hit buy it now, local napa has agreed to unload it with the forklift that I fix for them, saves $75 on shipping. Hopefully has all 4 forward gears and lasts till I build mine. I want to drive my car. Is there anything sadder than a...

    Say good bye to New Blue and hello to Lead Foot!

    Nice! I'm mildly biased since my stepfather is a ford salesman. I have a '71 gmc 3/4 ton pickup. It's mine until I die, and then my brother has dibs.

    Drivers Side Window

    Do you have a multimeter or test light? If so, check for power into and out of the window switch. It's easy to probe the connections when flipped over. Pop the front out first. My driver's window got stuck down. Cleaned the contacts and all is well.

    Heads up for owners of small pets

    Jealous! I'm too lazy to get my NJ paperwork done. Not many people know about .454 casull. I spent hours lusting after a freedom arms revolver when I was younger.

    What’s a trilogy setup worth these days?

    Thanks. Not trying to brag or make anyone jealous, just offering what I think is the best case scenario for getting a trilogy kit. Yes, I got it cheap, but I have a lot of work to do to the rest of the car. Enough about me, OP good luck with whatever you decide to do.

    Heads up for owners of small pets

    Wow. There are a few hawks that hang around over by me, haven't seen the eagle yet. Did see a large black bear on the way home Wednesday night. Have seen one coyote by the house, and can hear more in the valley at night. Don't know if they'll travel to your neck of the woods.

    What’s a trilogy setup worth these days?

    He knew what he had, but the car had been sitting at his mechanics shop for about a year not running. He had lost interest, and just wanted it gone. Right place, right time for once in my life. No, I haven't been trying to sell it. I bought it not knowing why it wasn't running. Had planned on...

    Ticking noise in engine area and it's not injectors...

    Sounds a lot like an exhaust leak. Torque converter or flexplate issue should change under load, for example shifting into or out of gear, also may hear a rattle at the end of rotation when engine is shut off. Try having someone hold their hands over the exhaust tips (cold) while you listen...
