    If someone is trying to figure out if this scanner will do what you need the main MT2500 scanner version number is 2.2 The copyright date is 1988. The MT25001099 Primary cartridge (copyright 1999) that covers up to 1999 is version 6.7 The MT25002988 Troubleshooter (copyright 1999) that covers...

    Found this when changing rear diff oil!!

    It can be glued in but the wear is never perfectly straight so the pinion won't be straight either.

    I bought a module on ebay in an effort to use the scanner on my 2000 Escalade. I would like to keep the scanner for another week or so.

    I think it has been long enough that beautyandthebeast is going a different direction with their project. Now waiting for shipping information from @bretcopsey.

    Found this when changing rear diff oil!!

    I would guess the backlash is big and a bad wear pattern has already become established. 3.73 is probably the second most common 3/4 ton gear ratio. Should be easy for a junk yard to find. Don't bother with a truck that is not wrecked, you don't want one that went to the junk yard because it was...

    Found this when changing rear diff oil!!

    Take a close look at both faces of every gear tooth with bright light. (and reading glasses if your over 40) Would be a miracle if none of that ever took a trip through the gears. There is a fourth option: Junk yard rear axle. Quick, cheap and a lot easier to find a local mechanic who can do the...

    Packed and ready to go! Waiting for shipping information from beautyandthebeast in a private conversation. For future reference: a (used) Priority Mail shipping Box # 1092 makes a perfect sized inner box for double boxing inside a Medium flat rate Priority mail box.

    Termite, Thanks for saving me from digging through all those pages again. I have read it twice already but was not keeping track of requests. I see that beautyandthebeast has the 454 that gets 4MPG! That is going to deposit massive amounts of carbon. This scanner is perfect for diagnosing that...

    The foam packing I received is pieces of a memory foam mattress. Very little protection. I feel we were lucky the scanner is still in one piece. Once I get the new foam packing squared away it will be ready to ship. We have two people recently added to the list but I am unsure who I should send...

    GMT400 - Community Scan Tool

    I need to record some data, with pencil and paper, for 3 vehicles then I am done. That will only take a few days. This scanner does show a few more parameters than my other scanners. Not sure how many or what but I was fascinated with the torque converter slip readout and the recording mode. I...

    GMT400 - Community Scan Tool

    Forced to display my ignorance about re-programing/flashing! My goals for the Snap-on MT2500 "community scanner" include: Re-calibration of the speedometer. Increase the torque converter lockup pressure a little. Disable the EGR by increasing the temp it operates at. Ignoring the second oxygen...

    Still hope for a package today, The one I just received was from UPS. Bit of a surprise that I am getting two packages from Spokane today.

    That package was not the scanner.

    No contact but a package I can't account for with my frequent online purchases is inbound. The mystery Priority Mail Insured package was shipped from Spokane, Washington. Probably should not have mentioned it. That package could be anything.

    Correct fluid

    Yes, major thread drift, as usual. Actually the OP has a "manual 4X4" completely different from what we were talking about.

    Correct fluid

    Many sources of information on the 246 transfer case claim a need for the blue auto trac II fluid. The 99 factory service manual lists GM 12378396 which is the obsolete red version of auto trac fluid that crosses to the blue auto trac fluid. My copy of the 2000 unit repair manual shows dexron...

    Front end rebuild

    Anyone have an opinion on the Timbren front bump stop? Very heavy duty but very heavy duty is what we need when we get the truck bucking on a wild ride. I have Timbrens on the rear of my 2000 Escalade and they reduce sway on hard turns.
