    Smog Help

    Well Had to get the truck smogged at a test on center, passed all the emisions portions of the test but failed on the Fuel Evaporator leakdown test. Does anyone know of a good way to diagnose at home where the leak is- local shop wants 200 for just a smoke test. Thanks

    Will I need a ball joint press???

    No Fluid Pressure - No Gears Forward or Reverse- NEED HELP

    I was wondering if maybe they gave me a trans case from a different year- I know the 94 will only interchange with 94' -I think because the bolt pattern but I am not sure. I thought that there were a couple years where they had a shorter shaft- so maybe I didnt brake the ears just groung them...
