  1. Call Denny's driveshafts. They'll have solutions/answers to all of your concerns. Top notch workmanship too. https://www.dennysdriveshaft.com/index.html
  2. I wonder if we can find the real owner of that internet pictured car, and maybe get him to be a club member...
  3. After looking at my old harness, it appears that the power for that switch goes thru the Radio/TCS Solenoid 10 Amp fuse, thru the power bulkhead in the engine compartment, and then to a short pigtail harness that goes thru a hole in the firewall to the Accelerator switch. From there, it would go to the transmission mounted switch. Dave and I were on the phone a few times and were both using multimeters at the same time, on our perspective harnesses, figuring out the circuit, lol. He doesn't appear to have power coming thru the engine side wire, which could be as simple as a poor connection at the bulkhead mating halves, or as bad as a broken wire. He tried to move the bulkhead connection a bit, but its location, plus it being bolted together produced no favorable results. We decided, If later attempts to re-seat the bulkhead don't work, a short jumper from a switched fuse block stab will work to power up the circuit. None of the diagrams or manuals I have showed that accelerator pedal switch.
  4. I can't find any diagrams or schematics that show the T-400 (M40) trans wiring either. One place suggested that the feed wire came from one of the 12V switched stabs on the fuse block and goes to one side of the accel. pedal switch. I can't verify that though. Maybe I'll go up in the attic and see what my old harness shows. Can you trace any wires from the switch connector back?
  5. You can weld them with nickel rod, but you need to take steps to prevent cracking (preheat, etc).
  6. I'm still looking into the side marker ones, so don't order anything just yet. The tail light numbers are good though. It says this number below is for the rear side markers, but I'm trying to confirm it with the assembly manual: https://www.amkproducts.com/search-result/?ser=g-4228 EDIT: For the front markers, your assembly manual will be page 12C-3, items 2 & 3. Those numbers look good for the G-4201 kit. I don't believe them in regards to the rear, I think just using the same type screws as the front markers will work fine (B-12152) So, I'd either order 2 of the G-4201 ($3.50 each), or get some bulk kits, with all the fasteners, and some left over. J-nuts (8 of them - $4): https://www.amkproducts.com/bulk-fasteners-products/?Product_ID=12245 Screws (12 of them - $4): https://www.amkproducts.com/search-result/?ser=B-12152 Realistically though, NAPA would have J-nuts that work, plus some #8 screws. Would be a lot cheaper once you figure in shipping.
  7. AMK will have all that stuff. Side Marker: https://www.amkproducts.com/search-result/?ser=G-4201 Tail lamp bezels (includes screws and nylon nuts : https://www.amkproducts.com/search-result/?ser=G-4204
  8. You looking for GM, or doesn't matter at this point, Jim? Sucks that your other one broke.
  9. Just for you, I created another option for our 'Reactions' menu. Look in the bottom right corner. You're welcome.
  10. NY is the same as far as sales tax, but the yearly registration fee (2 years in a lot of cases) is not quite as bad. Usually under a couple hundred dollars, at least on my vehicles. Naturally, a bit more if you have personalized plates.
  11. I had those, replaced them with the Bilsteins.
  12. Looks great Bryan, you always do good work! Laughed about everything needs modification, so very true.
  13. You know we always like helping others spend their money 💰 😄. Just in time for Carlisle & Syracuse too.
  14. That does look like a good deal, especially with Jegs offering free shipping. Jegs didn't offer much info on that kit, but the info from BMR seems to confirm they're the same part numbers I had used. https://www.bmrsuspension.com/?page=products&productid=1017
