I did a bit more fiddling around with my trans I can get 1st and 2nd if I manually shift its hard to tell if its shifting into top gear on the axle stands as my home made drive shaft is out of wack and shakes the truck at high revs, time to get one made I think.
I wired in some side marker lights and mounted my fuel tank selector switch ran my engine up to 4500 revs for the first time everything ok so far
