    2003 Acura MDX

    Yea, and I haven't really give in a good update on the MDX. Other than gas and oil, maintenance and and a set of tires, the MDX hasn't given me a lick of trouble. And I've driven it a lot and had it all over the place. There is much else to say in that department, it just goes and doesn't...

    2003 Acura MDX

    Ya, I can't image that it was flung in like that. Of course I don't really know how deep it's in the tank but when I grab it with my fingers it seems like it's in there quite a ways. I know right! That's what I keep thinking, but I can't see how it was flung in there like that either! The...

    I actually have a similar scenario in the drivers tank of the square where the factory plastic cover cause a leak in the corner of the tank and it's been holding fine but of course that's a steel tank and this is a polytank on the MDX. I don't see why it wouldn't work fine either.

    2003 Acura MDX

    Ok you smart people I need a some good ideas. I've already got two possible courses of action but would like to get some input. I have the MDX up on the hoist at the shop today. I've put a little more than 30K on it so far, so it's time to change all the fluids, trans, transfer case, diff...

    What have you done to your square lately??

    And now for what I did today. I pull my axles and drums and installed a new spring kit because I did when I did the shoes and they were dragging. I detailed that a little more in my diff thread. I also took the fast idle cam of the carb and cleaned the shift really well. I've been having...

    What have you done to your square lately??

    Yes, but it's higher than ideal. I would agree with that. True but that doesn't mean he can extend the life if his transmission with a cooler. My 700r4 which obviously does have a lockup, it's also got a big cooler. Normal driving the gauge usually runs around 150. If I'm towing 7k I'll see...

    Differential swap / bought it, work and install now

    Well I ended up having a problem. The problem was that the rear brakes were dragging going forwards. If I backed the adjustment off to the point that they didn't drag them my brake pedal was terrible. So today on my day off I drove the truck into work pulled the axle shafts out and tool the...

    Towing with an old truck

    Well most all of you already know i tow and haul. For the sake of the spirit of this thread I'll give an over view. Up until last fall I had a farm plus a day job. It was not uncommon for me to drive the truck on my commute to the shop, but it also got used extensively for the farm. It was no...

    1996 Grand Cherokee transmission rebuild & on to other stuff

    Thanks. All good info if this deal comes together or another one in the future. Honestly current one seems unlikely at this point like I said he's never available and I'm not going over on a "come on over I'll try to be available". That would be one thing is he was close by another when it's...

    Differential swap / bought it, work and install now

    I thought I could live with this at least for the time being, but details really both me. Can anyone point to where I can buy a speedometer drive gear so I can get my speedometer to read correctly. Thanks. Update: Never mind I have ordered a kit from amazon that should do the trick.

    1996 Grand Cherokee transmission rebuild & on to other stuff

    No. If I did I'd be showing ya'll pictures! Me and him don't seem to be able to get our schedules to align and I'm not driving and towing the Jeep 250 miles, and staying overnight in a motel for an I might be available. I'm still open to doing the trade but I have to get at least a commitment...

    Differential swap / bought it, work and install now

    The truck this came out of was a camper special. Judging by the condition of the springs it certainly didn't have a camper plopped on it full time. That was one of the reasons I thought it might have 4.10's it doesn't and I'm ok with that at least for the time being. And honestly the price...

    Differential swap / bought it, work and install now

    Thanks! It's not like huge gain, but when I push on the skinny pedal I can tell the difference. I've used those overload springs on a couple rigs in the past and they are really great to help give clapped out springs a lift. I don't know if I'm going to add anything to this axle. 9 leafs...
