Re: My 78 K15 High Sierra build - Fish Tremble
Hey there Rick, hows it going. Those seals that go above the door sash, should help with the wind noise.

Re: My 78 K15 High Sierra build - Fish Tremble
Hi TKCR, doing just fine on this end. Hope you are as well. Sounds like your retirement is coming right up, I bet that you are excited.
In fact, I just got on to try to find the old thread about these seals and the adhesive to put them on.

Re: My 78 K15 High Sierra build - Fish Tremble
Thanks much! I was still hunting for that thread. I thought I'd subscribed but I guess that I wasn't that thoughtful.

Re: My 78 K15 High Sierra build - Fish Tremble
Good luck, I never put mine on. Never really needed to, after replacing all the door seals and rebuilding the vent windows.

Re: My 78 K15 High Sierra build - Fish Tremble
You have really been getting things sorted, how many miles have you put on Hazel now? I'm guessing that the 5spd is pretty nice!

Re: My 78 K15 High Sierra build - Fish Tremble
Hey Brett, good to hear from you. I think I have about 6000 on the odometer, and maybe another 1000-1500 before I got the odometer working.
Funny you should bring up the 5 speed. I am going to be picking the truck up from a transmission shop a little later today. It's been there since a week ago Monday. I've had a really annoying loud whine and rattling whenever I put it into 5th gear. Doesn't appear to have anything to do with the truck's speed or RPMs, just happens anytime and the whole time it is in 5th. The transmission is great 1st-4th and reverse. I spent some time checking around and found this shop in the area where the guy has been building transmissions for going on 40 years. Everyone brings their manual transmissions to him because he's one of the only shops around that will work on them. He test drove, heard the racket and figured it would be easy to spot the problem. He found a couple bearings that didn't look new, but not too bad. The rest appeared to be new (I'd had the NV4500 rebuilt about 6 years ago and never used it until now). Found nothing he was confident was causing the noise. No metal scraps in the oil, nothing. I had him replace those "suspect" bearings since I was already paying for all the labor. Well, the noise didn't go away. He can't figure out where its coming from. Suggested I just drive it since it doesn't look like anything is being damaged. Maybe wrap it with more insulation. Grrrrrr..... Fortunately, most of my daily driving doesn't get out of 4th anyway.
