    A low whine or moan

    Hello. I have an issue I hope you all can help me with. There is a low whine or moaning sound coming from, I think, my transmission or t-case. Here's what I know: 1. The noise is present only when the transmission is in DRIVE. 2. The noise goes away when I'm coasting with transmission in...

    Engine/Transmission (1994 - 1998) Anyone with a BD Trans or another installed?

    I tried posting in the 1st gen posting but didn't get any response. Noticed most of the trans upgrades seem to be happening in the 2nd gen so thought I'd ask the question here. As you can see from my signature, I own a 1st gen. But I've upgraded to a larger 5er and want to solidify my...

    Has anyone had a BD auto trans installed?

    I've searched and read through the posts but couldn't find much on this specific question. So... Has anyone had a BD auto trans installed in their truck? If so, are you happy with the performance increase and could you provide specifics as to the increase? Any issues? How is the customer...

    Anyone changed ring & pinion on their trucks to a lower gearing?

    Started this new thread as I got great responses from guys who had transmission work or swapped out entirely with great success. I wanted to hear from guys/gals that have done the ring & pinion change. How is that working for you? Do you tow much and if so, did it make a difference? Good and/or bad...

    Thinking about a ring & pinion swap

    Hello everyone. I was thinking about swapping my stock 3. 54's to 3. 73 or even 4. 10's. The reason is my concern over towing our new 5th wheel. My thinking is that lowering the gear ratio would make life easier on the drivetrain (namely the transmission which is my concern) and allow for faster hill...

    Towing and my auto trans

    Thanks for your info. I will be taking your advice. My plan is to first stick a temp monitor kit into the stock drain pan and monitor what it's doing. If I then need to add another cooler, that's what I'll do. Thanks again!! You've saved me some $$!:D

    Towing and my auto trans

    Hello all. I just purchased a travel trailer that weighs maybe 6300 lbs fully loaded. I know that's nothing for these trucks to pull but I'm still concerned about my auto trans. My truck is a 92 extended cab, 4x4, with 3. 54's, 129,000 miles, banks stinger-plus kit. I'm planning on installing a...

    Distributor vs. mechanical pumps

    What is the difference between these two pumps? I own a 92... what kind do I have? From what I've read on this site, I should have the VE44. A buddy of mine has a 2001 and he has a VP 44 that's electronically controlled distributor type. Just want to know what the differences are. Thanks.

    Putting crankcase oil in fuel

    I've heard many good things with the practice of adding used crankcase oil to the fuel. In my area, there are many old-time loggers who still own and drive log trucks or dump trucks. I'm told they've been putting crankcase oil in their fuel for decades! So my questions to all you diesel...

    Fleedguard Stratapore Filter for 1st gen?

    I searched the posts but couldn't find anything that said definitively if I could use the stratapore filter made for the newer trucks. Geno's garage doesn't show a stratapore for my truck. Can I use part number LF3894? The stratapore is better than the standard or the microglass, right?
