I had the same problem only it only did it in a forward gear. Turned out my locker wasn't setup correctly. PO had it done by a friend. Locker was fine but the gears were trashed. Now it works great. Hardly notice I have one. Good luck

I'd have to also say a stock heater in good condition will keep you warm in just about any weather. I've lived in AK, VT, Whitehorse YT, and I stayed fairly warm in my 78 40. I did have a rear heater though, and a warm running 350. The weather strip is always a big problem. I haven't heard any...

The North Face is a good bet. Pricey, but durable. They tend to be a bit heavier and warmer than the indicated temp range. I've got the Tundra (-20) and one (don't remember the model) for +40. If you use a fleece bag liner and a Bibler bivy with the warm weather bag, you get a wider range of...

My 77 has doors like the drivers side too.

Either cooling lines or more likely the filler tube and kickdown cable.

If you add the price of a new efi system and roller cam and lifters to the motor yer talkin about you'll prolly come up close to even. I do agree that for what you get the ram jet doesn't seem all that spectacular.

Yes, cuz that's not a Ram Jet! Good motor but still. Read the spec on this and you can see the difference: http://www.sdpc2000.com/cart.asp?action=prod_detail&catid=120&pid=463

That's what I did. I've seen the price of some of the garbage on ebay, and James is good guy. Luckily, I live close by so I can pick stuff up and save on the shipping.

You obviously didn't read the post about the lojack in his cruisers. Or the arsenal. :D Good luck!

I had an exgirlfriend like that! :slap:

Do you know which output shaft was used on that TH350. Is that the Costco marine battery? Do you like it? I was lookin at the marine one but I would've needed a new tray.

The novak page says you need a short shaft (4x4 version), but that depends on the combo of trans and tcase. If yer using a gm auto and toyo trans case w/adapter IIRC you need a longer shaft and it needs to be cut. The output spline on the th350 and 700r4 are the same.

The pedals are too close together.

Not sure how much the short wp saves (maybe 2 inches), but it pushes you accessories (alternator, power steering) from in front of the motor to the sides. May cause new problems. Yes, you can mount a trans cooler anywhere as long as it gets an air flow and is out of harms way. Good luck!

I had a similar tick on my 00. They replaced the water pump and it was gone. ???
