TC has nothing to do with autolocking hubs. They work of centrifgul force. They are all well and good if you use them frequently but they tend to rust and then not work when you need them the most...If the 205 has a circular bolt pattern and a slip joint output shaft that is the one that will...
I'm a bit confused though...The HX40 AFAIK was for the 8.3(pretty sure my 8.3 had one) so why is the chinese knockoff a T3 when the real one is a T4 ? Was this basically made thise way to use on other apps ??
FWIW I talked to Peninsular awhile back and they told me the same thing, that I would not like the drivablity of the DB4 and I would be better off having them build me a custom DB2.
I'd go with teh Olset. I agree with you about the GM3. I did not know what your factory one was but I would not knock a GM8 so quickly. It's not a bad turbo but I also really like the Holset. I know someday one of the electronics gurus here could probably come up with a way to use the factory...
You didn' say what truck you are working on but I'll assume the '82 gasser. I am not sure exactly on the years but there was an NP205 that had a slip yoke that does have the 32 spline and pretty much bolts up, but good luck finding one. The Adaptor made by Advance AFAIK is to make the older...
Problem with those Old 2 strokes was they had no low end torque so you needed a driver that knew how to driv eone. You didn't dare stop at a light on a hill with 40 ton on your back or you'd twist the driveshaft right out. Nope had to time your lights well and walk it...
yeah BK is right, I learned the hard way. There is atleast two different ones and the bolts are different. I chucked it on my 93 as I had a lift and no longer needed it.
I believe some Alt's can give the signal as well but I don't know how you'd convert it to what you need. Perhaps the Dakota ??
As far as which Turbo, In my honest Opinion, If you have the GM one that came off it and it's in good order, I'd run that first and then consider a change later if your...
I would think a TPS off a 93 should work ?? I am not going to do a 4l80e in my M1008 as I got a sick deal from a member on DP. I got an entire rebuilt NV4500 setup with everything for a G but I do forsee an M1009(Blazer CUCV) in my driveway someday and this is the route I would go. I saw this...
