Has anyone replaced the driver side exhaust manifold while the engine is in the truck? Mine is rusted badly from 8 years of plowing snow/salting and it is now leaking where the crossover pipe meets the manifold. I had the crossover replaced about 6 years ago and the manifold bolts had to be...
No! The retaining clip and Axle nut were still there and tight. With the Dealer replacement hub being shorter, when I did my eyeball measurements my eyeball was off by about .150 and the retaining nut was actually at the end of it's threads so it was tighten the way it should have been...
Problem found, outer bearing race came loose in the hub and allowed the axle/hub assembly to shift outward until the axle pulled out of the spider gear hence no forward motion and the hub retaining nut caught it from coming completely off the axle housing before any catastrophic damage happened...

Just picked up a 2000 Kawasaki Prairie 400 4X4 from a friend for $500.00 who has owned it since new. He sold it to me because when you turn the gas on it leaks fuel out of a hose coming from the bottom fuel bowl on the carburetor and therefore it does not want to stay running. I am presuming it...
My 96 Sierra 2500 4X4 has a new problem. I replaced the Power Steering Pump (reman) and the Hydro Boost (reman)for the Brakes about 5 years ago but not any hoses or the Steering Box and now I am noticing my Steering get stiff and my Brake Pedal going to the floor, so I thought the Pump was going...
I paid $355.00 for a Dorman from Autozone. Every PMD from local auto parts stores were remanufactured and had a 1 year warranty, Dorman has a Lifetime Warranty so I purchased it, it is black in color but is about 1/8 of an inch thicker than the Grey Stanadyne that failed, it is already mounted...
