Does the stock front driveshaft in a D1 have grease fittings in both u-joints? If grease only comes out of two of the axises, some people have said to "tap" on the joints to get the grease flowing. Does that mean to tap on the caps (the area under the lock washer)? While trying to push more...

Is there a water drain somewhere in the rear/back door? Mine seems to be holding water behind the black seal, to the point that if I stick my finger under he bottom left corner I get about 2-3 tbs of water out, even if it hasn't rained in a week or two. It also sprays out a bit of water when I...

I am currently in a bit of a bind and wanted to know if anyone could think of anything obvious. Drove out to the track pulling my kart, no problem. Coming back (without the kart trailer) I started to notice hills were not easy to get over. Still maintained 70mph without too much fuss. So I...

I posted a while ago asking about a tapping engine. The suggestion was to check out the rockers and verify they were secured properly etc. Everything checked out, and there was virtually no sludge in there. I did pull the pushrods out and they looked ok, a bit dirty so I cleaned them up, but...

New exhaust is on and now that the rattle is gone, it sounds like the passenger side of my engine is louder than the other. I can definitely hear a difference underneath between the sides, but cannot specifically pinpoint a single location for the noise (sounds like normal engine noise). Here...

Looking on the tech section's output bearing guide, it shows the bearing as being part number "6207-J" but not who makes that particular bearing. Before I head over to napa and try to convince the guy to look for part numbers of an unknown manufacture, does anyone have any more specific info on...

A baffle or something has come loose in my exhaust. Since I want the truck to remain quiet, a stock catback exhaust is what I am looking for. If you replaced yours with an aftermarket one and its just sitting in the garage in good condition, let me know! I am in northern virginia if that...

About the transfer case. No private messaging here, and your email link is turned off...

It looks like my tcase needs to be rebuilt (96 D1, LT230t). Gears all look good inside, but the noise is driving me nuts. All of the experts have given me the same advice, the lt230 is noisy, but not that much. Its either bad bearings or pooly setup pre-load, and a teardown is the only way to...

Anyone have any hints on removing the main input bearing housing so I can pull the input gear? I took the PTO cover off, and have access to the bearing housing but it just wont move. I do not see any countersunk screws as listed in the manual, but it still will not budge. Thanks, Scot

As the subject says, I need the required torque on the connection between the manifold and front exhaust pipe. I have mine "tight" now, but after discovering the manifold to engine connection is a whopping 20nm, I want to make sure to not overtighten any connections. I am guessing it is much...

Anyone know a USA based dealer for the steve parker mainshaft oil feeder?

Anyone have any theories on running the heavier oil in their tcase? I was reading through the old messages and it looks like some people are running heavier oils, specifically the lucas 90/140. I am mostly trying to reduce the amount of tcase whine I get, and will probably eventually order the...

My windshield wipers would rather stop whenever I turn them off at the stalk than return to the bottom of the window. Any hints as to what could cause this? D I Scot

I have a small exhaust leak in the cat pipe to manifold connection (D I). I would just go pull it out and replace the gasket but figured its too simple, nothing could be that simple. Removing the pipe is going to cause my manifold to explode or something isnt it? (I found the leak through my...

What would you guys recommend for a dI w/16" rims that will be driven mostly onroad? I want a tire that is good all year round, can handle gravel/some dirt but can run a 500 mile trip in silence. Stock suspension and no fender cutting. Offroad will be minimal for now, maybe in the future I...

I found one I really like. Interior is nice, exterior is in good condition except for a headlight washer nozzle being broken. Power is great, no electrical bugs or engine service light etc. ODB shows as clean (though could have been reset of course). Tires are "ok" but getting a bit loud...

I am looking at a DII that feels great, but has a few issues. Number one the check engine light is on. It started from cold, no transmission problems, idled properly, temp looked fine etc, so I am guessing an o2 sensor is bad or something similar. Will be diagnosed BEFORE purchase. What I...

I have an offer for a 97HSE in decent condition for 11k. Tires will be brand new and the truck has 111kmiles. For the good stuff, externally it is in decent condition, all the doors and windows work. Heated seats are good, as are the other electronic bits. EAS works fine, and has had the...

I am looking at a few discoveries, and had some questions about symptoms in one of them. Im not saying "this is the one" just trying to get a handle on possiblities. It was cold, no obvious leaks when I started it up. Backing down the driveway the rpms would drop down a bit and the motor...
