I put on the stock fan clutch and tossed the electric one. I dont have the cowling for it so the fanclutch is exposed but seems to be running fine with the AC now at highway speeds. I do want to upgrade to a 4 row aluminum radiator though.

So the headlights on my series 78 are either the worst headlights ever or im getting old and my night vision sucks. Either way i purchased some LED headlights and can only get them to work on either hi, or low. If I flick the hi/lowbeam switch one side just turns off. I take it there is some...

Thank you for that very helpful. At the current lift hight I do feel a bit top heavy cruising down the highway. Will drop it a bit and extend the wheel base. I must say though off road the hight is really nice. I appreciate your time and response.

My series 78 is really lifted, im guessing around 6. I live in Panama where it isn't an issue but don't think i could drive it in the states. I want to drop it a bit. Does anyone know what the normal frame hight off the ground is? I think I can go 2" safely over that.

Thanks for that. As I can not even hold it in 1st I dont believe its the bushing but will replace it anyway :) if it was that simple would ve brilliant:)

Ill try that tomorrow. Is the part (bushing) something that needs to be ordered or can it be made?

So i would remove the stick boot, the stick, and its the bushing at the bottom?

Pulling my hair out. I am somewhere Between "WOW I have the coolest truck in the world" and "F, what have I done?". Two weeks into my new to me troopie 78 purchase the transmission started popping out of 1st gear. I am okay with that and happy to do the work but I am supposed to have a R151F...

I believe this is the speed sensor? When i got the truck it was disconnected. I found this plug which fits in the sensor but need some advice on the wiring :)
