Use. Less. At least in this case. The screws I was using snapped before it even began to try. I like it though, $10 new in the tin carrying box 5lb? slide hammer with all the adapters from work. Normally $100, $10 because it was "obsolete". I spent ~1 hour getting the bigass snap ring (that should have f-ing ears with holes in them, in my opinion) out only to find that was pointless since the aluminum bit wasn't coming out in one piece.

David,
Any experience with the lomax 3:1 Np205 tcase?

22 years ago, I had installed 3:1 gears in an isuzu t case. With 4:56 gears, 3:1 was plenty low.

Haven’t heard that name in a long time. No exp, but 4:1 is too low for anything but extreme crawling so should be good

Straightened up a bit of the under hood wiring


Working on getting everything sorted out under the dash.


And I've got functioning high and low beam headlights



Going to call Holley again tomorrow.
They tell me the ECU is fine but I've been over all the wiring for continuity, terminal location and no backed out terminals 4 times along with 3 oxygen sensors and it just reads a flatline in the ECU data.
I've posted my program GCF and a data log on the Holley forum and there's some legit smart dudes on there and I think every other thing has been exhausted as far as possible issues.

10.5" ford sterling limited slip. Not aggressive enough offroad. Will see if more friction surface of the aftermarket clutch packs improves 2wd traction. If not, it's getting pulled for a truetrac.

45 minutes on hold with Holley tech support today.
They think that it's possible when I initially did the firmware update through the touchscreen and SD card it could have been corrupted or incomplete.

So, doing it now through my laptop...


Fingers crossed this is what is needed.
