    Anyone know if this ABS scanner will work with my truck?

    Will the knockoff require license keys or anything that the legit Tech2 would?

    Anyone know if this ABS scanner will work with my truck?

    I’d like to find an ABS scanner that can auto bleed my ABS module in my truck. I didn’t really want to pay more than around $200 and this is one of the cheapest scanners I’ve seen that claim to be able to do it. I know there is some weird gap in the ABS setup around the year my truck was made...

    Master cylinder bleeders: How much air pressure?

    If anyone’s interested I just bought one of these tonight. After 11% rebate and a $5 rebate they’re less than $4.

    Anyone have a proportioning valve depressor tool?

    If I can get measurements of the width of the slot I was going to try making a $1.50 home made depressor rather than paying the $20-$40 for one.

    Anyone have a proportioning valve depressor tool?

    Could you get me an exact measurement of the width of the slot in the tool that you slide the accumulator bleeder into? Thank you.

    Master cylinder bleeders: How much air pressure?

    I guess I could add an air pressure gauge right before the inlet of the bleeder cover. It wouldn’t be hard. I was thinking of doing a remote button connected to a 120v air solenoid. That way I could pressurize it only when I was loosening the bleeder screws while under the vehicle

    Master cylinder bleeders: How much air pressure?

    So just hook them to a compressor with pressure regulator or do the bleeder units do something besides apply air pressure to the reservoir?

    Leaking axle shaft seal on rear end, need help finding parts

    So my differential from the factory called for 80w-90? That’s one thing I’m very unclear of because I see a lot of people saying synthetic 75w-90 and I see others saying conventional 80w-90

    Leaking axle shaft seal on rear end, need help finding parts

    Okay so from what I gather on the manual transmission and transfer case fluid, it’s actually Dexron III-H but they’re not calling it Dexron III because they’ve “phased out” DexIII. Do manual transmissions and transfer cases work better on III than VI to where they’d bother rebranding this?

    Leaking axle shaft seal on rear end, need help finding parts

    Wtf. I just called a local Chevrolet dealer and they told me that my front and rear differentials take roughly 2 quarts each 75w-90 but what's strange is he told me the rear needed slip additive. I asked him the order number for the GM additive and he gave me the number for this. I've seen...

    Leaking axle shaft seal on rear end, need help finding parts

    What kind of lube and how much do I use in the front differential? What kind and how much in the rear? Rear is a 10 bolt G80 posi 8.5” ring gear with 3.73 ratio. I’m planning on doing a trans fluid/filter change. That would require Dexron III correct? 5 quarts for a fluid change in a 4L60E...

    Leaking axle shaft seal on rear end, need help finding parts

    The GM dealer sold me the Manual Trans/Transfer case order number 88861800 rather than Autotrac II. I wonder why. Most things I’m reading are pointing towards the Autotrac

    Leaking axle shaft seal on rear end, need help finding parts

    I looked in the garage and found the rear differential cover and gasket I had bought. Also with them was 2 gallons of 80w90 and the 3 quarts I had bought from the dealer were GM manual transmission/transfer case oil

    Leaking axle shaft seal on rear end, need help finding parts

    Got the shoe kit I paid $6.87 for. It’s exactly as the picture shows. Both hydraulic cylinders, the shoes, and full hardware kit including the adjusters

    Leaking axle shaft seal on rear end, need help finding parts

    Are you talking about white lithium grease? If so I have a couple spray cans of that. I used to use it on the window tracks in my GTP before the transmission went out.

    Leaking axle shaft seal on rear end, need help finding parts

    3/4 ton or 1 ton diesel pickup I want so I can pull the boat and camper that I’ll someday hopefully get. Until then I don’t have any other option than to keep this one running

    Leaking axle shaft seal on rear end, need help finding parts

    Thanks for your replies. It’s greatly appreciated. I should have included the general state of my truck and my intentions with it. Other than my wife’s town and country I have the Silverado and a diesel Jetta. The Jetta is my daily driver and I only use the truck when it’s necessary. I pull my...

    Burnout?

    New on this forum but I’ve been on several different car forums in the past. This is kind of cheating but will help you do a burnout more easily if you really want to. I saw threads on a Camaro forum where people have added a normally open solenoid-operated valve right after the master cylinder...

    Leaking axle shaft seal on rear end, need help finding parts

    I have a '98 K1500 Silverado Z71, extended cab, 3rd door, shortbed, 5.7l engine, automatic transmission. I looked up the RPO codes and I have a 3.73 ratio locking rear end. I was in a parking lot driving a few days ago and hit my brakes and heard a metal on metal grinding sound coming from the...
