The entire truck is mine for $75.00. It runs and drives...but I have to junk what I can't use...part of the deal....
Should I buy it for the T-5?
The other question...anyone know if the 91 S-10 rear would fit and be a close match to the track of the stock front end? | | | | | Joined: Mar 2004 Posts: 734 Shop Shark | | Shop Shark Joined: Mar 2004 Posts: 734 | Does that mean you can't sell stuff you don't use? You have to throw it away? $75 is a deal either way. What's the chances of just hooking up an electronic speedo instead of getting the $300 (or so) adapter? Is it cheaper? Could that be an option? I'd be nice if somebody would make a repro speedo that's electronic for conversions such as this. Or, how 'bout swapping tail housing's with mechanical? -David Kustoms-and-Sleds | | | | | Joined: Dec 2003 Posts: 975 Shop Shark | | Shop Shark Joined: Dec 2003 Posts: 975 | I can use/sell whatever. $75 for the truck.....the truck just can't be put on the road....that's the deal....I did not study it real hard, but the cab and box are in pretty tough shape (MN Rusty)...so other than the mechanicals....I don't think there is much left....
I am going to try taking the rear end and tranny for my truck. I can put my old stuff on the shelf and put it back in if this plan does not work.
Winter is long....I have time to try a few things before I will want my truck on the road again.... | | | | | Joined: Dec 2003 Posts: 975 Shop Shark | | Shop Shark Joined: Dec 2003 Posts: 975 | Also...I have a one truck rule....I will have about three days to remove what I need and get rid of the rest....or be forced to live in the remains....I only get one third of the garage and the driveway is already used up by a two place snowmobile trailer and two sleds.... | | |

Sell as much as you can and hopefully it'll pay for the tranny and rear and maybe the speedo adapter. | | | | | Joined: Feb 2003 Posts: 104 Member | | Member Joined: Feb 2003 Posts: 104 | Went for new gages for my 51. got tired of trying to get original gages working properly, any way found a set of gages that I wanted ,only problem speedometer was electronic ,I was totally against it . bought the gages any way, now I really like the electronic speedometer. old navy 51.................. | | |

I took the mechanical speedo out of my 3 speed and compared it to the electronic one. They both had the same number of teeth, and the mechanical one fit into the T-5. The only difference would be the metal tang that holds it in place. I think there was a difference in length. It would be an easy fix.
BTW: I have not run the T-5 yet, so I'm not 100% sure. Good luck. John
