Which u-joints did you use when you replaced them?

I saw that in your video. it did look like the pinion seal area was kinda wet and from the video it did look like there was a bit of rotational play with the pinion gear meshing with the ring gear. that doesn't mean it's bad though. Just means it's been broken in. if the squeak comes...

Honestly it did sound like a u-joint squeak. the only way to tell other than it returning and you pinpointing it at that time is to pull the driveshaft and feel and look at the joint. I wouldn't worry about it until it comes back. could have easily been brake dust in the drum which is...

What did you find making the noise?

put the rear up on stands and the wheels off the ground. rotate the wheel by hand and see if you can pinpoint the squeak.

The only way to do that is to take oil samples and have them analyzed over time. I would stick to the 3k mile oil changes especially if you do a lot of in-town stop n go traffic.

That hole in the overhead console has room for two gauges. on my 93, I took a piece of old pallet wood and whittled it down to fit and cut out the hole for my boost gauge.

Welcome @emmaleo depending on what your wanting in a computer, what all your wanting to do with it, I would suggest getting something used of of market place as a start. buying new is really expensive right now with the market on memory and storage. there are really decent complete pc's in...

Not sure if this will help, but I was greeted with this screen just a bit ago.

That reminds me... who was it that @Husker6.5 would punk about the skidsteer!

with the power master, there is room if you wanted to beef up the support bracket! I used a piece of angle iron on mine (though my block it busted at the outer bolt hole) I used a long piece that extended down to just above the pan and it rests against the block at the pan, bolted to the top...

That popping sound is most likely the spring coil in the center of the regulator. attack that with the graphite dry spray. if it's not the spring rubbing it's self then one of the rollers in a track is skipping rather than rolling. might be a flat spot on the roller. If you can't locate the...

Several times I was thinking it was my internet. so far today the site has loaded fine the couple times I've gotten online.

iirc your gonna need a pair of vice grips or channel lock pliers to press the rollers on the nubs of the regulator too I see you got the bolt on type. I don't remember if the original ones are spot welded on to the regulator. if you have to grind off the old studs, verify the height...

Hey guys, has anyone noticed lately that the forum is seeming loading slow or timing out and not loading? I tried earlier tonight on both my home PC and with my phone (not on wifi) and couldn't get it to load up. this happened the other day as well then after a while of doing something else...

iirc the main issue with plumbing in a mechanical gauge was the ops port on the block is a funky metric or BSP straight thread with a sealing washer they used.

Keep in mind this gauge is calculated by the ECM, not the actual oil pressure! I have seen so many blown engines because it was too late when that gauge bottomed out and the knocking started. I would tee into where that sensor goes and run you a mechanical gauge to always have a real reading...

get you a can of both that you linked. also pickup a can of graphite dry lube spray. Here is the list for what to use what on... Graphite dry lube... key holes including the ignition tumbler door locks hinges regulator pivot point door rod linkage hood hinges - a must on older rigs to keep...
