Im sooo bored of driving a campervan to work with tools and materials and jerry cans of diesel crammed in it....

So this carries on...I pulled the trans and took it to pieces. Clean, beautiful, no real signs of wear or abuse. Clutches look great. Steels have no hotspots. Magnet was clean. Pistons are crack free. I threw in a transgo shift improver kit while it was apart and replaced the bushing on the oil...

It doès remind me of an old fridge tipped on its side.

Im in Canada. I know the pain of shipping. Im thrilled Rockauto does reasonable shipping here now. They're great. Couldn't find the nylon pads with them though...

I got mine online from american powertrain. The New chain was cheaper than I could get anywhere including shipping and I had them throw in some nylon pads. If you are splitting the case anyway put in a new chain. Its worth it for about a hundred bucks.

Tru trac is the Torsen style differential right? They are super interesting. My hummer has a pair. The are active all the time without locking suddenly like a clutch. And you can full lock with brake pressure when you want.

I picked up that Hayden fan controller from rock auto last week. Looks nice. Not installed yet but I like the layout and the wiring diagram is clear.

I want to know what the deal is with that pump. Virtually nothing in reviews on ytt internet that I could find. Its self proclaimed amazing - which it may be, but I like independent comments.

1/8 npt cable gland tightened around the probe. Then threaded into the transfer case. Possibly at the drain plug. It not for permanent use. Just to see where things operate at. My transfer case has a cooling loop from the transmission. I think it acts as a transfer case "heater" most of the...

32-500 deg.

Im going to grab one of these ffro Home Depot. Weber iGrill Mini App-Enabled BBQ Thermometer 200hr battery life. Smartphone app. Ill put it in my transfer case to start. Then move it to my diff and even throw it in my geared Hummer hub. Monitor temps from the cab wirelessly. Its only 50 bucks....

And rockauto has the shift kit too. Get the manifold and the kit to see what happens or just the kit?

Would this work for diagnostic purposes to identify my issue before I do a rebuild?

And just for kicks I ruled out PMD by swapping in a good one.

Still picking low fruit - found a transmission service bulletin that suggested an optical sensor can create these symptoms. Un plugged it. Starts hard. Ran fine up to 110 deg then slipped. Looking at pricing the valve body kit. Any benefits to the HD version for me?

I like it. Root of issues first. Good news is clutch packs are cheap.

Pressure in limp mode R is 240 -300 psi. Rapidly fluttering between those 2 points.

And why the normal feel to everything up until 95 deg? Viscosity drops that sharply as it passes 100?
