Once again, the steering shaft seal seems to be dying on me... I'm getting bored of this, I'll probably get a redhead soon.

Encho, this may be a stupid question but have you tried the lucas oil power steering seal treatment fluid?

Just ordered some infinity speakers to replace the old door speakers. I already replaced the head unit with a sweet JVC and the rear speakers with Boston acoustics. I'm hoping the heavier magnets and deeper cone structure of the infinity speakers will give me a bit more bass response. If not I will have to get a bazooka tube or something. Good news! all of the work tightening things in the pass door paid off. 99% of the noise from the door has been eliminated! I have new panel clips from bronco graveyard, once i install the speakers and the new panel clips, do some lubricating etc I should never have to worry about door noises again!

I don't have that stuff available around these parts (Location -->), but I might try something of the sort, thx for the suggestion.

I can imagine that you don't have the same stuff available down in Caracas. I was there once when I was a kid. Beautiful place.

Yes, it is a beast. A neighbor of mine thought my truck was this mean chopper with short pipes just down the street just by hearing the noise. But the reason why I couldn't drive it far is because there is something wrong with the tranny. Right now it's in the shop being rebuilt (just the tranny :)) and I hope to have it by end of week.
Oh mind you, when the time is right...I don't intent to have those NEW tires last more than 10000 miles and there will be video goodness. Did you ever see the pic I posted of the motor? I posted it in a few forum posts a while back. I haven't seen any motor pics aside from the one on the hoist getting ready to drop in the truck. I did search back a little, but everything seems to get buried on here so fast! Hope things go well with the tranny rebuild, and looking forward to seeing some awesome video!:-jammin |
Finshhed up troubleshooting the taillight issues...
Turned out to be a wire from the pigtail had slipped down.... Fixed that, and now have a spare switch....:-X22 |
finished up my injector install. tomorrow my intercooler. next week i'll need a new transmission
|
Dropped my spare, lifted (with a floor jack) the new Class 5 receiver hitch into place and drilled the first set of holes (3 more sets to go) and tightened the one pair of bolts for tonight. Tomorrow I'll finish drilling the remaining 6 holes and, torque all of the bolts to spec and re-install the spare tire.

Too bad about the tranny, but better to find out now...
