Did someone put the parking band onto their NP205? Maybe I'm mixing up moving the parking brake when they also moved the drive shaft over.
Yes, a NP200 parking brake can be bolted to a NP205. However, the NP200 brake mount/output bearing housing has to be machined to fit.
Hi Al, I just tried to message you but your inbox is full.
OK, I just deleted a bunch. Send away...
Good to see you again and have lunch with you Thursday Al. And yes we talked M715s in addition to coming up with solutions to all of the world's problems, our country's problems, and Jeep problems. Looking forward to seeing your rig out camping this summer. We might have to have a PNW FE this fall, sounds like there are a number of guys here in the PNW with M715s.
Sure been a lot of distractions. But I have been making wires for all the add on's and untangling and feeding wires to their destinations. Pretty much just feeding them through the rocker switch holes and I will terminate each wire at the dash later. I have been using weather pack connectors everywhere. Nice plugs.
Wires hanging just about everywhere.

The cab. It is slowly getting cleaned up. There will be some extra wires. I did not need 26 circuits but I wanted the waterproof fuse block. I also think some of the wires are undersize. Like the cigarette lighter feed. Same with the HEI distributer feed wire. They are a bit small in my opinion. Should be 10Ga to say the least.
This is going to take a while. Lots of wires to add. Like turn signal and 3 lever light switch wires. One at a time.

I am still waiting on my headlight relays still. They are flosser relays. Top quality German parts. Perfect.
You posted in the regional section on this? I'm down to meetupQuote:

I am sure he will see this and I may just shoot him a text. He is in Post Falls just past Spokane. I need to get my truck done. I'd like to run it a few months to make sure all is well on it. I sure did not pick the right tires for much hiway running. I bet they go away fast. Regardless I REALLY want to get as much camping in this summer as possible. Anyway, glad you said something Twobit...Quote:

I am getting there. I hope I can get some time back on it soon. Good to hear from you Bill.
Well I had a reply to you days ago Bill, but it does not seem to be here. Maybe I did not hit post...LOL
So I am back on the wiring !! Rang a stang is wiring the J4000 with a 8.1 liter motor I sold him over at IFSJA. So were kinda racing to see who finishes first. Today it was the wiring for the relays for the headlights. Using Hella Ecode headlights I finally got my FLOSSER German made relays from Susquehanna motor sports or rally lights dot com. I am running tinned marine wire and soldering every end. No china crap here. I will post some pictures when I have something to post. I have a long way to go. I want to hear this thing run.
Because pictures always are fun.
The mess of wires are getting reduced. As they land where they should it is looking better. There will be a full day of stuffing everything into wire looms and securing them. Thats last.
I have E code headlights going in. I am soldering all relay and bulb connections.

And using German flosser relays. I am not impressed with the painless wire harness. The puny headlight wires are only serving to trigger the relays that are wired with much bigger wire. The light fused power is sourced from the battery and grounded to the battery. Full voltage to make light.

I have been using E code lights for decades now. Not legal in the USA because they work. With the LED lights on the road now it is a moot point. These put light where it should be. On the road and on the shoulder. I have deer here. They will shine here. Not to use a bad pun...

Yesterday I finished the headlights, front turn connections, park lights, horn, washer pump, etc. I still have the engine, in cab, and tail lights to go.
With an exception of battery cables and winch power leads from the stinger 500 amp solenoid the engine bay is wired!
