    Attempted dealer lube job rip off?

    I found a video where another TDR member mentioned the Lincoln 5803 smaller diameter tip does the job. With the smaller diameter, it appears i can go directly to the hole vs the bigger tip. Many Amazon reviewers confirm this is the correct tip for the front driveshaft lube...

    Installed Heater Treater blend doors (all 5), now having problems

    In researching the blend door problem in Feb the forum's unanimous recommendation was to replace with HT doors. Do all 5 if you have it apart. At the time I didn't have the spare cycles to do the work so I took it to a shop (not dealer). $800 + $250 parts later I had HT doors in my 06. Had to...

    Wanted to share my experience for the next newbie. I was successful in compressing the pistons on the rotor by using a larger clamp. I put one end of the clamp on the caliper in the middle of the pistons (inboard side)and the other side on the caliper mounting bracket. Draining the old brake...

    DRW Can't remove rear Brake Caliper top bolt-- not enough clearance with leaf springs

    I did open the bleeder valve to make the compressing easier. Also, I just picked up a motive power bleeder and plan to try it out :) today. I have two qts of fluid just in case.

    DRW Can't remove rear Brake Caliper top bolt-- not enough clearance with leaf springs

    I see lots of discussion about using a screwdriver between the pad and the piston, seems like this would get the pistons crooked.

    DRW Can't remove rear Brake Caliper top bolt-- not enough clearance with leaf springs

    Thanks, got it cleared and removed, next question Thanks for the info. I got the bolt out and the caliper loose. The shop manual says to compress the piston to remove the caliper. I have never done this before where the caliper had to be compressed while on the rotor. In all my other...

    Leaky Coolant Hose Behind Turbo

    Just replaced mine. The special-order parts were $40 at the dealer. (I need to find the closest cummins dealer here in Houston for next time... ) I removed the wheel well cover which made the job possible. Since I was able to rotate the old hose but could not get it to slide up or down i just...
