1991 v3500 - big dumb lifted forever truck

[Scribbles]

This build is a bucket list for me. Love it, looks good!

Finally have a factory tachometer vss cluster. Was not complicated at all with this combo gauge but with the separate fuel gauge kinda not worth the effort.
Pretty stoked about this. I also fixed the trip odometer with good gears so that works now.
It's the little things.

Can you tell me how to fix my trip odo? It seems to have a stripped gear.
Thanks!

Just put good gears in it. They are not reproduced or available separately. Good luck finding some lol

205 is done for the final configuration.
Complete rebuild with some traditional upgrades.
29 spline input
Twin sticks with adjustable detents
32 spline front shaft
Vss kit from ORD
Tapped the plug holes for 1/4npt. Handy as hell.

Finished it and cleaning up I found this ring in the with the old snap rings.
WTF. IDIOT!!!! How the hell!?!?!

Took the rear output off and checked the rollers and it had the separator ring. Took the front out and inspected those rollers. Had the ring too.

SONOFA!!! Ring was from another tcase. Made me tear it back apart. What a pain. Good news is I did it right. Gooder news is I did it right twice lol.

I also like it. Easy to find leaks. Shoulda sprang for stainless bolts for all the external stuff LOL.

Sidewalk chalk is one thing, but minivan, that's just gross..
