UV Light testing For Oil Leaks. copyright 2006 by Rip Van Winkle I was looking to find an oil leak in my mustang recently. I did not want to pay a fortune for an "Official UV" light so here is what I did. Total cost was about 7 bucks for the light and UV dye for the oil. Here is what I have done: I ...

Check all of your fuses first. Then I would look at the conncetor at the bottom of the steering column. This connector has been the cause of many electrical problems in the RBV's. If that checks out then remove the dash cluster and change out the little voltage regulator on the back of the instrumen...

To all users of Freon 12. Do not despair cause you can use a product called freeze 12. It is cheep and redially available. If ya want more info just do a google on freeze 12.

I can't help ya with your leaky gasket but if you have gas in your oil sounds like a Fuel Pressure Reg has gone gunnybag..

wait, if I am using the dia. style pressure plate should I be using the same throw out bearing from a dia. style clutch? Absolutely.. Sounds like a lack of travel at the diaphram. If I remember corectly there are two bearing styles too. There is a short one and a long one maybe you need the oposite...

Ahhh Can we say Sawzall....

i got a better pic of the rear...my d-shaft actually doesnt have any offset..its totally center..so either i measured off just a tad or the B2 t-case output is offcenter as well. what exactly are you trying to do. What am I trying to do? I am trying to work out some chassis dimensions for my 23 T C...

Tek.... that IS an 8" under my B2...what are you looking for?? Housing width is 51" flange to flange Left tube flange to pinion center was 25.75" Right tube flange to pinion center was 25.25" 1/2" offset on this particular housing. That is exactally what I am looking for. You have 1/2 inch offset o...

Exelent info.. Thats what I was looking for. One last thing for DBrown. You said you had an 8-in around? Could you throw a tape measure on that and check it for me.

Thanks again.

Hello there DBrown, I agree with what your saying 100%. However I do believe I might have been confusing in my first post. :confused: :confused: :confused: I was just looking for info on the various housings as I am looking at a completely different project. :idea: I was also amazed at what I measur...

I got a question bout rear ends! You know the mechanicaL type.. I have an old ford 8 in rear and when I was measuring it I discovered the pinion is NOT in the center but offset to one side. I know front diffs are offset but this rear housing was supposed to have come from a car. At any rate has anyo...

If ya lived down south here kent,Renton, Don't forget the good ol Renton Loop

If the decision concerning Transfer Cases were up to me, I would use a manual case. If your trying to decide which is better the manual is. The electric T case shifts via an electrical motor mounted on the outside of the case. 99% of shifting and not shifting problems are due to this motor. Not a ba...

Hey Mat, You made the right decision. Sometimes we (Old Fat Bastards) get drawn into situations we didn't ask for. I think I would have Kicked his ass or made him wish he never met me. I may be old, fat, and in a wheelchair but I have my ways and methods. Kneecap Job is nice. I am so tired of manner...

Bleeding the clutch on one of these beasties can be a trying exp in frustration. I read a shop procedure somewhere where the front of the vehicle is raised to get that damn master cyl somewhat level for bleeding.. Ford recomends presure bleeding. I have found that is the best way to go. If you are s...
