I cant remember the brand, it came off of my EngersollRand A/C. You can get something like it from harbor freight i'm sure. As far as the quality goes I dont know.

I currently run a WARN 9500 High Speed on my 1st Gen and its impressive for its size and weight. That said, I'm moving it to the rear and mounting my new 8274-50 on the front. Besides the reliability, the line capacity is awesome on the 8274. I burried my truck this winter in the mountains and...

I run mine with a 10 gallon tank between the frame rails where the spare used to be. It has a pressure switch set at 90 psi, pop off valve set at 125psi. I used a pre lube on the inlet side ATF with a filter. The tank has a drain and Air chuck installed, the primary air chuck is located in the...

Heavy Duty The Ad stated that it was a kit. New trac bar, new mounts, HEAVY DUTY. Their TOP OF THE LINE KIT. I'm not mad at the Vendor, I just figured that such a bad ass heavy duty kit would come with new bolts and good ones to boot. Especially for the price. Will a grade 5 bolt work? I really...

Heavy Duty YUP aint that the truth. I would have been better off building the stuff myself which is usually what I do. But time was of the essence here and that didnt even pay off cause it took more than a week to get it. Go Figure!:mad:

Winch I just had this same problem on my WARN 9500HS. Pulled it apart, did all the standard tests and had the exact same problem as mentioned above. What it finally came down to was that the surface area between the motor housing and the part that holds the brushes did not make a ground when...

I just recently bought a 99 XJ and decided to do some minor things to it to make it a Nice Family Wagon. Lift, Tires, Traction Devices so on and so on. So my issue here is the TERM "HEAVY DUTY". I wont name the Vendor cause I'm not bashing just giving some personal opinions. I recently...

Motor The motor came out of a 91 toyota 4wd truck. As far as the pan goes. I was told from the previous owner that he had to swap pans and the pick up tube because the donor motor was from a 2wd truck. This now explains why the pan was loose when you guys picked it up. I currently dont have any...

I never install a Chevy motor with the Dizzy installed. For several reasons but its mainly personal pref. 1) It's one of the fastest ways to break the dizzy if it happens to catch on the firewall during install. 2) I always prime the motor to build oil pressure before I fire it off for the first...

If it runs fine with the HEI, I'd run that. You answered your own question. Keep it simple and repairable with off the shelf parts. Now if it was going into a hot rod, go for it.

Excellent point.:awesomework: You know your carbs well.:cool: I am very surprised at how many people dont know the old backfire trick. That trick works wonders, but I usually find that the jet or jets eventually need pulled and inspected. Only because it never really gets rid of the crap that...

Carb Not really sure on the time. Ill call ya tomorrow and give a heads up. I kinda figured it was a vacume leak of some sort by what you were saying. What motor do you have in the yoda? I believe I have extra spacers and I may have a few gaskets as well. I cant recall if I let them go with the...

Carb I will be up in your area tomorrow. I could take a look and let you know what may be the problem. You can PM me your number if you wish to have an extra hand at it. Rgds, Dennis

Runner Damn you boyz work quick. Looks sweet! Call if you still need some help. Here is what it used to look like.
