Re: PO has me PO'd
Trying to assemble theses parts next
 Seems that both jaws are not the same, will have to determine which goes where. Does not say anything about it in the service manual

Re: PO has me PO'd
Not sure it matters. All it does is provide the indent for where the pin goes for each position of the tilt. Thats why it's staggered like that. Should move and stop in each position regardless of which way you install them. I was trying to see if I had pics from when I assembled mine, but couldn't find them. But I really don't think it matters.

Re: PO has me PO'd
Thank you for your time...saves me. Service manual says to use a soap based grease, think it matters

Re: PO has me PO'd
You're welcome..... glad to help. I pulled this off of Wikipedia .... "In the context of lubrication, grease typically applies to a material consisting of a soap emulsified with mineral or vegetable oil." So personally I don't think it matters.... I always use the same grease I use on my ball joints haha

Re: PO has me PO'd
Found it was easiest to clamp the bowl to a work surface, gave you two hands to start the retaining pin
  Not much to put the turnsignal switch in... Waiting on the bearings to come in from Wes, Classic Heart Beats. Thanks kean for getting me back on track with those photos

Re: PO has me PO'd
Found out that if you push in the two side tangs from the front, you can use the channel locks to press out the connecter. Luckily the tangs are not spring steel, so once you push them in, they stay in, so it makes it easier to extract them. Dont forget to bend them out when you are ready to install them
 You can just make out the two side tangs

Re: PO has me PO'd
Trying to figure out how to fix my heater control, seems that a number 4 screw would fit, so i can drill and tap. Used my dremel cutoff wheel to get rid of the burr on the rivet, now it will act as a alignment dowel. Just have to drill the center

 you get to choose one of the following great prizes from my pile of parts....list to follow, come on down Red Actually, the master cruise switch looks like a dealer installted option, so i will be opting for the turn stalk switch....thought i could use both, but M&H says i cant Vacuum, that is another story. Was goning to use a air pressure gauge, for my compressor, but decided a vacuum gauge would be more usefull in keeping my foot outta the throttle....WOT Found it on the classifieds, so im guessing its stock

Re: PO has me PO'd
hehe, I think I may have mixed my metaphors or something. I meant was your cruise system a vacuum operated one...Do you have a vacuum guage too? I put one in my Blazer too, but still haven't figured out what it is telling me.
That stalk kind of looks like the one I have on my 71 pickup. Its a 73 and up aftermarket system that Sears used to sell. It ran off of vacuum and a magnet on the driveshaft for speed input. Mine has a slide on off switch too, though.

Re: PO has me PO'd
Not black, I'd have it powder coated a chrome or bright silver.

Re: PO has me PO'd
How close is it to the rings/buckets? I'd think it would look better if it matches spot on or is black or bright silver like the trim.

Nice guard. Do you want it to stand out or blend in? Black for the first and white for the second. I vote black.
