    Rebuildable 208?

    I pulled my trans thinking that it had went out but upon seeing that it was in good shape i turned my attention to the 208. cracked it open and found one heck of a mess on the magnet. Looks like the input bearings went and allowed the shaft to slide forward and start grinding into the case. I'm...

    Brakes come and go?

    Yesterday a car pulled out in front of me and i had to get on the brakes pretty hard. Not even close to locking up the tires though. Since then the brakes have felt really weird. Twice it has gone to the floor, but the pedal came back when i pumped it. The pedal will slowly go down if I'm at a...
