I have to resize my pictures or they post upside down.

Did you do an engine swap? My brother had one and he put in a bigger engine. I think a VR6?

butch2000 · 08-06-2021, 10:03 AM

yes we did a 1.9 diesel with bigger turbo , tweaked pump , about 160 hp , fun to drive , rolls a little coal !

Just call me Sean · 08-06-2021, 07:07 PM

Nice. Looks like it's in good shape.

Just call me Sean · 08-15-2021, 02:29 PM

I changed the seals on the power steering high pressure line and the fitting that screws into the pump. Started leaking after I put on the used pump.

firestopper · 08-15-2021, 06:28 PM

wash and a drive

mikelom · 08-22-2021, 10:26 PM

Replaced the power steering pump. Also, the flowmaster that I ordered from 4wheelonline arrived today. I'm planning to install it tomorrow.

Just call me Sean · 08-23-2021, 07:21 PM

Front brakes again.

What bulb did you use for the reverse lights.

Just call me Sean · 09-01-2021, 04:18 PM

Picked up a center link at the junkyard for the '93. Non wearable part seems to be worn out.

Just call me Sean · 10-08-2021, 06:12 PM

A/C compressor locked up today.

Just call me Sean · 10-16-2021, 02:10 PM

Driveshaft center support bearing came out of the mount again. This time I'm gluing it to the rubber.

Just call me Sean · 10-28-2021, 12:44 AM

Changed the EGR valve.

sweetk30 · 10-29-2021, 12:34 AM

Rear dana 80 pinion seal in my 3500-HD truck . She was worn out and leaking at only 83,300 miles .

Just call me Sean · 11-01-2021, 01:29 AM

I repositioned the plug wires on the '99, it was misfiring and I could see the residue from where they were arcing. I'll pick up new wires soon. I also exchanged the lifetime warranty plug wires on the '93 as it was misfiring too.

**special-K** · 11-09-2021, 06:50 AM

Been needing tires for the 'Burb. Friday I picked up a screw at Lowes that took it down flat while loading up cinder block... Argh! I got a closer look at that flat and decided to pull them all and install the wheels and tires off my '72, which will be sitting till spring at least. I like the look but it's temporary. Although the same size tire (285/75-16) the 8" rims cause tires to rub. I'll get the old tires off the 7" Accurides and mount the better tires. First I want to paint those wheels argent for a closer to factory look. I had them that color originally on my old '92.

Just call me Sean · 11-13-2021, 07:35 PM

Pulled the distributor from the '99 to check the gear for wear. Seemed fine. I need to find a scanner that reads CMP retard.
