Electrical / Re: TH350C orange test connector use?

« Last post by VileZambonie on June 23, 2026, 04:48:01 pm »

You're reading it wrong. Key on 12v to the solenoid. The brake switch or low vacuum switch can interrupt the circuit open. The pressure switch in the valve body grounds the solenoid when the appropriate pressure is met and applies the torque converter clutch. If you have a test light bulb installed on the test connector you can hit the go pedal and see it go out, let off see it come on, hit the brakes, see it go out, let off the brakes, on and so forth.

Thanks.  So I do not need to shimmy under the truck.  Nice.  I am so afraid I will break it when I unplug it because EVERYTHING is old on this truck.  Wish me luck.

As long as it's seated and the snap ring is in the grooves with the notch lined up you're golden.

There is a connector for it near the steering box. Just unplug it there.

Engine/Drivetrain / Re: TV bracket for Dualjet carbs?

The answer is a 4 barrel 

So what do you have on there now? The same bracket for the detent cable will work.

If you weren't 924 miles away I would love that R10 for parts.

Same! Put them on FB Marketplace. They are each worth at least $500 buckaroos or part them out.

Brakes, Frame, Steering & Suspension / Steering shaft lower bushing/bearing assembly

I did a quick search and didn't immediately see anything specific to this so here goes...
When installing the lower column steering bushing and bearing, is it best to; (1) do the white plastic bushing and then press the bearing in or (2) press the bearing into the bushing and then assemble to the the lower column shaft?

I just added a few more pics of these trucks, had to search for them. But you can at least see the bodies now.
