    Engine/Transmission (1998.5 - 2002) Brake line rubbing on tire???

    Cardoc hit the nail on the head... I looked at the support bracket on both sides and the problem side bracket is bent down slightly. I bet this cures it. Thanks to all... Joe

    Engine/Transmission (1998.5 - 2002) Brake line rubbing on tire???

    My driver side brake line is somehow rubbing on the inside of the tire. Stock wheels and tire size. When I turn the wheel either way I can't see how it would be possible for the line to rub the tire as it appears to be where it's supposed to be, yet the inside of the tire has rub marks and the...

    Engine/Transmission (1998.5 - 2002) Will my VA box work in all 24 valvers?

    Brewski, I was asking $375 but I think at this point I would take $300. It doesn't plug into the map sensor so it sounds like I'm in good shape. Thanks for the info guys. I would have called VA but it looks like they're somewhere in Europe and that's not a long distance call I want to make:D

    Engine/Transmission (1998.5 - 2002) Will my VA box work in all 24 valvers?

    I have a VA CPC in my '99. It's up for sale and was wondering which trucks it will work in should somebody with a newer than '99 asks. Thanks in advance...

    Engine/Transmission (1998.5 - 2002) Shavings in my transmission pan???

    Just a side note, rather than drop a pan full of fluid all over the driveway I used one of those hand-drill powered fluid pumps through the dipstick tube at a rate of about 1. 5 quarts per minute and only had maybe a pint of fluid left in the pan. Cant afford a mag-hytec and don't trust the...

    Engine/Transmission (1998.5 - 2002) Shavings in my transmission pan???

    Changed the filter and some fluid and did the bands today. While cleaning out the bottom of the pan I found the usual clutch material on the magnet (the black mushy stuff) but also found some fine copper colored dust and some not so fine :confused: copper filings down in the pan grooves. Is this...

    Engine/Transmission (1998.5 - 2002) Tsb 18-07-99??

    Just got back from the dealer after a supposed transmission flash. Under the hood the tech had written down TSB 18-07-99. The only problem is that I can't find that particular TSB on any lists. Anybody every hear of this one? BTW, it was taken in for an ongoing rear end vibration that they cannot...

    Found out what strange noise was......

    Mines a 99 4X4. Actually the more I think about it if I get 100K out of mine I guess that's not asking too much as much as I tow. Do you do some serious towing?

    Found out what strange noise was......

    ????? I had my driveline balanced a few months back at a driveline shop and asked them to replace the joints while it was out. They told me that they were in great shape and that they were a good ujoint and normally go for 100k + (had 45k at the time). They could have sold me replacements but...
