The original owner said the tranny took a dump in the very beginning so the factory waranty gave them a 5 spd.( It is not a SR5 package but looks the part) I have owned the truck since 1989 and had the tranny rebuilt once.
My issue lately is every so often when I go to release the clutch there is a grinding slipping souns (the best i can describe it) I took it to a shop they said the clutch is fine (I am not so sure I believe them) Also they told me my load sensing proportioning valve is leaking (it is) and there are only 2 left in the country the part costs 219.00 I said really 2 left in the country and they are not making the part anymore..my question is how do others fix this and is it needed? Do you know of a good on line part store for this part?
Any help is appreciated-Thanks
