what is the stock housing size on hx35... ... . duh

BFC, I guess yours was fixed under warrenty ? I have been looking for recall info and havn't had any luck.

where can I find out about the recall? We checked the computer at the Dodge store and it showed no current recalls..... and did not show that this had ever been done to my truck. One of the mechanics did mention it the other day and that is why we were looking today. 1997 3500 smoker

Headlights and blinkers still work. I had heard some trucks have had problems with the headlight switch. Anybody else been here? tnx Tony

pop the rubber plugs off the backing plate (on the inside) see which way the star wheel will turn with a screwdriver... this will be the direction to adjust brakes out. You need to turn it the other way..... do this by sticking another screwdriver thru another slot and pushing the locking plate...

very good thought JTeague... . looks like its time to quit talking about it and get to work!!

The clutch and plate is a centerforce and is only abt 6 months old, probably 5000 miles. It did not start over a long period but I'm not sure it was all there in one day. I haven't noticed a spongy clutch or a change in the feel of the pedal when it warms up, but I will pay attention to that...

thanks, illflim but would it be air in the lines if it doesn't do it cold? I will try thought sounds cheap enuff !! tnx Tony

.

it is hard to get in any gear.... when it is warm or hot. . not when cold... . the fluid was fresh mopar about six months ago when I did the new main shaft with the 5th gear fix... the grade oil I used was about $13 a quart dealer cost... I understand there is some that is about $25 a quart...

get in gear from neutral when warm, no problem when it is cold and it doesn't seem to be a clutch or hydraulic problem. Any ideas? Its a 1997 It has the correct mopar fluid and gets worse the hotter it gets. tnx. Tony

Mine is now in the same location as the stock one. I'm guessing forward equals more smoke and power?? I have been told to try . 010 to . 015 thou at a time. Its in a 97 5speed

When lifted by the frame a 4*4 is supposed to be alot easier than a 2*4, I guess the front axle has more travel.

All I have done is recheck the oil cooler and its ok. I've been to bumed out to mess with it. Next on the list is a combustion air checkand if it shows combustion air in the coolant then I think I can also isolate the culpret cylinder by doing the same test over with the injector line off of...

Mine came off 800 miles from home, no problems driving it back but it made for a long trip. My guess is if there was no damage as soon as it came off you could drive it forever.
