Re: My Dusty 71 GMCe Electruck
Maybe something like this would get those sounds for your Canadian buddy?

Not sure what it monitors thru the OBD2 but it might work...

Re: My Dusty 71 GMCe Electruck
after one too many sleepless nights The Greg made some significant progress on Rev. 2.0 of our input shaft mechanism, using this handy LDR 311 F-112 Galvanized Floor Flange, 1-1/2-Inch, complements of our friends in Vietnam, or as I like to call it the Lexus GS450h transmission plate two big of a hole reducer thingie

here it is as found in our local Ace Hardware store plumbing section

Re: My Dusty 71 GMCe Electruck
Is the "Lexus GS450h transmission plate two big of a hole reducer thingie" being used as an alignment tool so you can re-drill those mounting holes?

that is correct, but it also required this additional mini adapter aka "rubber band set"

Re: My Dusty 71 GMCe Electruck
and then it was S&K Steel Time aka SKST

so this is the kind of remnants they have, and at first I thought this frisbie disc would work but turns out it was not sliced straight

Re: My Dusty 71 GMCe Electruck
so lets level set and regroup a bit, so up to this point for the last year or so I have been driving this truck only on one electric motor inside of that Lexus transmission, this one, commonly referred to as MG2 for Motor Generator 2, and I have put on over 2,200 miles on the truck that way (yeah, I know whooptie do!)
