So let me get this straight. As long as I don't lock the hubs I should be ok. There is no need for 4we where I live so it will always be in 2h. Do I need to remove the front shaft t be safe?
Hey guys. I was curious about something. I currenty have 3.73 gears and those are to high for the size of wheels and tires I have. But due to cost I was wondering if I could do just the rear end until have enough money to do the front. Since the front is a taller gear and I would be going to...
It cost 165 but thats due to the fact that the driveshaft has to be balanced. I will say I do have a little less vibration while driving. Don't know if its mental or really did improve things. I to also used heat to get my old ball joints out.
The new slip yoke fixed my issue. I'm thinking that mine didn't leak because once it leaks low enough to send fluid down there it stop. But once I filled it back up with the work I did. That is why it started leaking again. Maybe that's why its leaking on your 241 now.
I found out there is a seal at the bottom of the slip yoke. It's not the hole pictured above. Need a new slip yoke and have the driveshaft balanced. Thx for all the input.
Thanks. Do you know if I can see it with the u-joints in. I'm certain I broke that seal with heat. The joints weren't budging at all until I took a torch to them
Hey guys,
I was having the notorious clunk when cold and putting in gear. I also had a small leak that was obvious from the rear output shaft seal. I replaced both u-joints in the rear driveshaft and the rear seal. After doing that I still have a leak from a weird spot. Please see photos...
The tire size is irrelevant. Take a point on the tire mark with chalk if possible and make one full rotation. The amount of times the drive shaft turns is your ratio.
Does anyone know the brand who makes Dual front stabalizers. I don't mean the ones with one on top of the other . But one going in each direction. I have seen this before and can't find on a google search.
You have me on craigslist now looking for a 5.3l. Thanks for posting and documenting. People like you give people like me the courage to tackle these projects. I will be following closely.
