This is also excellent advice for steering wheel removal when you are jerking on the wheel to get it broken loose. Quote

What you have IS similar to what I posted earlier, but as Tim said, the other ones are a bit beefier, and with the slugger wrench on the end you can gain a lot of leverage with a decent size hammer. It is often recommended to leave the nut on the end, loose, to keep things from flying when it pops loose. Merle u were exactly correct....I ordered one like u pictured.....mine is not beefy enough...THANK YOU AGAIN Quote

5027 steve Posted February 7, 2018 Author Report Posted February 7, 2018 Trying to dicern the shop manuel can the rear outer axle shaft deals be replaced without removing the brake backing plate???? I can't tell from the shop manual Quote
5027 steve Posted February 8, 2018 Author Report Posted February 8, 2018 Are these the two ports I would use for a remote oil filter???? Quote
ggdad1951 Posted February 8, 2018 Report Posted February 8, 2018 yes, I'm sure someone here has a better picture than I have on hand right now to show the hook ups. A forum search likely would turn p info as well. Quote
Merle Coggins Posted February 8, 2018 Report Posted February 8, 2018 The upper port is in the oil pressure galley and would be the pressure feed to your bypass filter. The lower port is the return/drain from the filter. It goes down through the oil pressure regulator spool. When pressure is low, and the spool is closed, it will block the return flow so that you can't flow oil through your filter. When the oil pressure is at a "normal" value, the valve is open to allow flow from your filter to return to the sump. Quote

5027 steve Posted February 9, 2018 Author Report Posted February 9, 2018 Anyone on a lead for a new rear Hub????? Also any answer on being able to change to outer rear axle seal and if we have to remove backing plate to do it or can we pull it out and replace it without removing backing plate ...Thanks ......

Merle Coggins Posted February 9, 2018 Report Posted February 9, 2018 Looking at some pictures I have when I rebuilt my brakes, It appears that you could possibly replace the outer seal without removing the brake assembly. Drill a couple holes through the seal and use sheet metal screws to pry it out. I have little slide hammers with replaceable screw tips for this purpose. But this begs a question... Are the outer seals bad? Are they leaking grease? If they are, and the grease is a bit runny, that would indicate that the inner seals are bad and the gear oil has contaminated, and diluted, the grease in the bearings. Quote

5027 steve Posted February 15, 2018 Author Report Posted February 15, 2018 Good evening men...We got the intake/exhaust manifold off today(whew that was a challenge) we took what is called the push rod covers off and #1 we were pleasantly surprised how clean the interior of motor is ..no real gunk or build up .....#2 But are perplexed that the covers had no gaskets or anything the would resemble gasket sealer...I got gaskets at Napa today (actually in stock) did these motors come with gaskets from the factory???? I'm surprised it really didn't leak oil when we ran it although no pressure is built up in that area of the motor.... Quote
Jerry Roberts Posted February 15, 2018 Report Posted February 15, 2018 Yes they had gaskets there . And no push rods . ( valve covers ) Quote
