    XJ Steering Shaft Upgrade (88-94 Trucks) 95+instructions on page 31

    Thank You for your speedy response! Soon as I get it out of the paint booth I am swapping shafts. I already replaced the rag joint and I have absolutely zero faith in it now. I had to grind the heads down on two of the bolts, the retainers that came with the rebuild kit were completely useless.

    Upgrade steering parts

    I found the Dorman video while I was replacing my rag joint. The only problem I have with the rag joint is that I was forced to grind a little bit off each bolt head in order to permit the joint to have flex. I did not like that. I am going to head to the junkyard this week and get a jeep XJ...

    Engine Coolant Temp Sensor for TBI 7.4L

    I don't have a Scan tool for OBD1, nor a data logger. That said, I wouldn't have thought to ohm out the temp sensor up top because I too was assuming that the signal came from the same sending unit as the temp gage.

    EAST302 Thank you! - The heritage page indicated YE9 RPO code as Silverado package. My RPO decoder simply called it YE9 convenience group.

TPS, MAP, EGR, EGR solenoid, Vacuum lines - after clearing all the codes and hitting all the common sense items (tune-up, hunting for vacuum leaks, etc) he gave up and just lived with...

    NV4500 fluid issues

    My new to me 1992 C3500 with 40K miles on it....(yes indeed 40K miles) has the NV450. 3rd gear syncro was out. The rest of the gear clearly showed a 40K mile machine. I guarantee that the previous owner filled it with GL5 5 years earlier and that destroyed the synchro. I found Redline MT85...
