    80 series cab and chassis differences?

    I've crashed the cab of my very complicated rig last year (the cab was IIRC 1995 LHD 1HD-T), bought a new (..well :D) 1992 LHD 1HZ poverty pack and had the 92 cab moved to my chassis. I know my mechanic was complaining about different front seat mount points apart the things mentioned above...

    Meteor shower -- WHAT meteor shower??!??

    Huh. Seen about 10 yesterday night, and spent about 30 minutes looking.. Forgot all about it the previous night which supposed to be the top. Europe..

    What Did You Do with Your 80 This Weekend?

    Hi, no, sorry. I'm overseas, and in any case I'm putting my original viscous TC back. Love it in the snow. I'm sure it'll fit then, the length difference between the two cases is the same as what I'm missing in driveshaft. Thanks though :)

    Transmission solenoids 1993 TLC

    I can send you a 93 electronic a442f, if you wanna be in a different world of trouble 🙃 :rofl: Jokes aside. Dunno your symptoms but as little as I know about this tranny (installed it 5 days ago), the most common by a laaaarge margin is supposed to be a weak kickdown cable (or just poorly...

    Transmission solenoids 1993 TLC

    The hydraulic one is PRND32L, the electronic PRND2L shifter EDITED, actually not sure about cooling lines. I'm pretty sure my old electronic tranny had cooling lines on the left. The hydraulical one I have now is on the right. Hell, gotta find out when I see my old one in the barn. The shifter...

    What Did You Do with Your 80 This Weekend?

    Replaced the manual tranny to a fully hydro automatic. Yay! 13 hours of work for 3 people. Problems: - next time make sure to check which plate belongs between the tranny and an engine, so we don't have to cut a hole for converter screws - there's nowhere to connect the kickdown cable (it shifts...

    Shorter CV / birfield & thick drive flange.. doh

    @landtank pm sent I think he's already cried many times and it's not over yet. Nobody's touching the engine for example; yeah it's a tough one to destroy but heck. I'll have some pictures later maybe; I'm really proud of my mechanic for his work on the frame; everything is either zinc coated or...

    Shorter CV / birfield & thick drive flange.. doh

    Oh the truck is in pieces. Cab here, frame & engine there, axles elsewhere :)) The only problem is the owner is really getting frustrated over this money subject. He's bought it for like USD 14000 and he's in another 10k in parts & work already. I'll see how it turns out :)

    Shorter CV / birfield & thick drive flange.. doh

    .. and here we go https://forum.ih8mud.com/threads/snap-ring-or-not.481684/post-6622830 apparently there have been people using it. Again I know it's not a correct solution. If it were my truck I would buy the correct birfs as well. Not my truck, just want to be helpful here as the owner is...

    Shorter CV / birfield & thick drive flange.. doh

    Oh it's not like the washer would be tightened against the flange, but against the birf shaft; there still would be small (<2mm) lateral play as it's when secured by the c-clip. The birfield body should not be tightly pressed against the spindle. If so, the washer would need to be machined with...

    Shorter CV / birfield & thick drive flange.. doh

    Hi all :) So yesterday we were replacing everything on a friend's 1995 front end. Deal was he gets the parts, we do the work (I get a transmission replace work in exchange, looking forward to that!) He got new birfs, seal kit, all good, let's go. After everything was back in, the spline won't...

    24 volt removal, no brake+tail lights

    After all this hassle it was the relay that was faulty. IDK, must have died halfway through my attempts as I specifically checked it working. Replaced with a generic one (for the moment, I need to pass the state technical check up..). The brake light turned out to be the brake switch. There is...

    24 volt removal, no brake+tail lights

    So. Dug through the wiring remains from 24V, found a single blue fusible link that went to MAIN on the plastic covered terminal; the other one (GLOW) connected as well. There is apparently no connector for the round one; also it seems rather oxidized as if it never actually was connected ...

    24 volt removal, no brake+tail lights

    <going through the EWDs..> Now crap. Isn't this the 3rd FL?? And the MAIN connection is missing. Hell, I'm apparently stupid.

    24 volt removal, no brake+tail lights

    Ha, nice! I'll go check it out. <15 minutes later..> So. Turn signal and hazard works. Signal lights (is that the first rotary switch position when turning the lights on?) don't. Only full headlights do; but they're kind of hacked upon, because there are aftermarket HID lights. Fog lights don't...

    24 volt removal, no brake+tail lights

    I've gone through your thread as well, don't worry, my electrician skills are maybe even negative, so I've read all I could:)) I've had to replace the LHD fusible link with a new wire, because it broke when was unscrewing it. The RHD links (green and blue IIRC) are all connected directly to LHD...

    24 volt removal, no brake+tail lights

    Somewhat successfully followed the 24 volt removal thread. 1; removed the 12/24 relay, deleting the whole second battery altogether for now (running a wire from LHD drivers main + to fusible links on other side; RHD battery not connected at all for now, planning to change that later) 2; added...

    Removing the stering wheel lock

    Just FYI; fixed the issue by rotating the shaft. The correct procedure is: - situation - everything removed (lock cylinder, shaft, switch) 1; install shaft, rotate 180 degrees 2; install cylinder lock, set in ACC position; confirm wheel lock working. Set lock to OFF 3; install starter switch...

    Removing the stering wheel lock

    Oh crap. Okay, that'll have to wait for a different time :) As for the "why", I'd be glad if it was all gone, because it's already stuck on me once and it wasn't a good experience. Took me good 15 minutes of persuasion. Whole family waiting in the car until dad gets it going somehow.. But I...
