Oh, yeah, I didn't think about "equivalent" bearings. I'll ask about that specifically when I talk to them again. Their site is www.blumenthalmfg.com Seems like a huge place - a dozen buildings and over 200,000 sq. foot facility. They do light, med, heavy duty over-the-road and off-highway...

Emjay, good point about only replacing soft parts. I think I'm going to have Blumenthal Mfg. do a rebuild. They will inspect everything closely after it has been cleaned up (I didn't see any chips, but was only looking through the PTO cover with a trouble light). Sounds like they'll do all...

Hi all, Well, I ordered the new 5th nut and the tools to fix my (supposed) 5th gear problem. I was getting a whining noise that has been increasing over the last 10k miles. I put the truck in my garage, drained the trans fluid (I'd just changed that 6k miles ago) and saw lots of gold and silver...

Hi All, I'm having a problem with 5th in my '99 5spd 4x4 still. It started whining on accel about 4k miles ago, and now is getting louder on accel and has started whining on decel as well. Yesterday for the first time I was unable to get it into 5th on the way to work. It took about 10 tries...

Thanks for the reply guys. Jetson, I have a Practical Solutions boost module. The truck runs fine with just the boost module installed... even when the boost goes over 18 psi. I sealed the gaskets up with some Hylomar as well as put some silicone on the few exposed leads of a couple of parts on...

Hi all. I'm having an intermittent problem with my VA box. Three times now, after a cool night I've started up and headed to work, only to get a few miles down the road and the truck loses all power. It seems to go into some kind of limp mode where it will only run below about 1300rpm and it...

Thanks for the replies guys. Steve, the shifter softly 'pops' forward and back when I'm accel decelling in third, not side to side from engine torque. Thanks for the info on the plate... guess I'll just run with it like it is and feel good about the added capacity... makes me mad about the...

Hi all, just a question about the slight whine I'm hearing from my 5spd when I put it into 5th. It started making the noise at about 38k miles, and is now at 41k. You can just hear it with the windows up and no radio... It goes away when I let off of the go pedal. Don't know if it is related...
