There's a couple I've used. Here's one: Hydraulic parts supply Sawyer, Kansas A number of threads at Garage Journal about rebuilding. A couple on a common US made floor jack https://www.garagejournal.com/forum/threads/walker-93632-jack-rebuild.80165/...

Sometimes the AWG the terminal is supposed to be for is a little big for the particular wire or wire insulation we're using. It doesn't help that SAE gage wire uses larger strands and so has slightly less cross sectional density than the same AWG stranded wire. And insulation thickness can...

Could be an iron-oxide primer

Thanks. I have one like that - somewhere. A very similar screwdriver is made now: Grace USA https://www.brownells.com/tools-cleaning/general-gunsmith-tools/screwdrivers-sets/screwdriver-set/

For the inline splice, I've used the terminals from easternbeaver but since there is no insulation support, use a stiff heatshrink when possible. The instructions from the Dodge Ram manual that 67Dart273 posted are basically what I follow. In some situations I've skipped the soldering. I...

Step by step: A bit of Wiring 101 One of the tricky parts is matching the jaws to the terminal and conductor size. Crimpers

Looks like a closed barrel crimper to me. If it was easy then there wouldn't be any discussion about it. The point of this thread is to make good open barrel crimps, or more specificly, crimpers for making it possible.

Imperial Eastman makes several sets. Eastwood used to carry them, but like a lot of things, got themselves a house branded version.

There's some decent books out there from roughly late 1960s into the 1980s. At least two of those books tell how to make home made forges and anvils that can work pretty good for starters. (I'm describing coal fired forge, not propane.) Two routes for classes and see if he likes it. One is...

Back in the garage, finally. Not see those. That may work. I need to check the dimensions. If not Lisle has an oversize tapp & drain plug set that covers 12mm , 1/2", 14 mm or I'll remove the pan and get it welded.

That is looking to be the plan. I'll try the double oversize self-tapper and if that fails to hgold at a reasonably tight torque, drop the pan. I have the original one off this engine that I can use for at least short term. The machine shop brazed the one rust hole and drain plug is good.

A nut welded to the outside would need to be welded 360* to be leak free. Then the outer surface needs to be flat and large enough to provide a bearing surface for the sealing washer. edit: Photo added showing the limited access for a torch or other head due to the diff and axle tube

Maybe it might have to be. That's why I was banging my head. To do a good job the pan once reinstalled will have to sit overnight na dbe retightened. I use O-A and that is extra difficult in corners, never mind inside a 'box'. Another option is to use the pan shown above, although it had a...

The self-tappers are pretty junky. I'm not sure how it got messed up in the first place but the OS self tapper is what stripped out the threads this time. Dummy me tested it on the bench to 30 ft lbs, but without a sealing washer. That difference was enough that it failed at less the 15 ft...

Any experience with 1/2-20 TIMESERT oil pan plug thread repair? or know anyone who does? They have note on their website to use the ones for cast aluminum pans on a sheet metal pan where an oversized thread has been used. see www.timesert.com/html/drainplugNote4.html So I sent them an e-mail...

Same one branded for Sears. Pretty easy to use except on the smallest bits.

When I saw the photos at first I thought I had posted and forgot. LOL. Have the exact same vernier - use it all the time. And yes have reading glasses and a magnifiers on hand! Long ago, near the dawn of the internet, this repair shop posted essays on various measuring tools that they repair...

Probably the experiment published in Machinist's Workshop 20:2 April/May 2007 and followed up on by Sterkel Summary of penetrating-oil test (pdf) A description of the test. "In case you're wondering, he made a series of shafts and sleeves and corroded them in a salt bath solution. Then the...

This may not be a good place to buy if you need just one, but the part numbers should be good everywhere. Delphi 56 Series Ring Terminals If I did the math right these convert back to .040" material. I don't fully trust the metric conversions. its always a crap shoot if it was typed correctly.

I've been pretty happy with SK click type torque wrenches. Even sent one out and got it repaired and calibrated. Can't do that with the cheapoes. Whether the SK sold today are the same as 10 years ago, I don't know.

Unlike the Sargent tool in the drawing below, there's no ratchet on the MAC

You can poke around webstores like Rhode Island Wire, Terminal Supply, etc. What I did was download a Tyco (TE) AMP catalog of open barrel ring terminals. narrowed down the type and style and ordered the p/n from one of the supply houses (Mouser, Newark, etc) Dont remember the URL, Some of...

Pretty much. And there's hardly anyone in the business that can tell us end users in plain english what each one is made to do. I'll say this, the jaws doing both crimps at the same time is least versatile arrangement. Look for used ones or borrow? When TMM posted that MAC tool number...

Sargent 3182 CT GM /Delphi /Packard 8913440 Crimpers Open Barrel Crimping demonstration A bit of Wiring 101

If you want to do cutting or heating, the cylinder's have to be big enough to provide the volume for the your chosen tip. A rosebud requires a lot of fuel. When I was looking into it, the local ertailer had me call Concoa and talk with a rep. Here's something else to consider easpecially with...

I have a different Actron and at least once once compared it with the MSD's timing light on my '67 with the MSD 6T ignition. No obvious issues.

Gotchya. That makes sense.

Next time look to see if Molex makes one for slightly larger wires and terminals. Yours looks like the 63811-1000, same as I bought for use with the micro-fit terminals.

Nice Steve! You guys definately needed the space.
