    Engine/Transmission (1994 - 1998) Rear Driveline Yoke Leaking....Again!

    I fixed a leaking end cap on my rear driveline yoke three years ago. Link here: http://www.cumminsforum.com/forum/94-98-powertrain/244736-driveshaft-yoke-leak.html. It is leaking once again. I am considering pouring epoxy into the yoke to seal it off. I am concerned about epoxy breaking off...

    2nd Gen Non-Engine/Transmission York for a 12V

    Apologies for digging up an old thread. There aren't a lot of people who have done this successfully that post. I have a friend that successfully mounted a York compressor the way you did. Before he mounted the compressor he blocked the oil return with a set screw to prevent it from pumping...

    Engine/Transmission (1994 - 1998) Where should I set the timing for best mgp?

    Yes 265/75R16. I went up a tire size which hurt my in-town and towing mileage.

    Engine/Transmission (1994 - 1998) Where should I set the timing for best mgp?

    ALT+0176 I have a 1997 4x4 5 speed with 3. 55 gears. Lightly loaded I get 23. 5 MPG on the highway. In town it drops to less than 17. When I tow on the highway it also drops significantly. I am planning a trip to help a friend move at the end of the month. I will pull a 6x12 U-Haul trailer...

    2nd Gen Non-Engine/Transmission Heater Core Saga

    Your truck is super clean. The carpet looks new. My truck had a very difficult former life. It was abused and neglected when I got it. I replaced many parts to make it a reliable vehicle. One of the last things I want to do to it is replace the carpet and clean up the interior. I got a couple...

    2nd Gen Non-Engine/Transmission Still having drum brake problems - need help!

    I have it figured out. Carlson sells an adjuster hardware kit. I replaced the adjuster hardware and the problem went away. I can drive my truck again! I find this very strange. The star wheel and springs all seemed fine when I put the brakes together all this time. I am not complaining, I...

    2nd Gen Non-Engine/Transmission Anybody try Centric rear brake parts?

    2nd Gen Non-Engine/Transmission Anybody try Centric rear brake parts?

    I checked the radius per this thread: https://www.turbodieselregister.com/forums/showthread.php?77049-Rear-Drum-Brakes-Shaking-You-Up&highlight=Drum I had even contact all around. Both the Centric and Napa shoes were tapered on bothe leading and trailing edges. I spent some time...

    2nd Gen Non-Engine/Transmission Still having drum brake problems - need help!

    I didn't say that I thought I may have bad hydraulics so I changed the rubber hose from the frame to the axle, the wheel cylinders and flushed the fluid. I checked the brakes against the FSM and used my friend's 96 which is original. He bought it new and never changed the rear brakes. We put...

    2nd Gen Non-Engine/Transmission Still having drum brake problems - need help!

    I am working on my 1997 2500 5 speed truck. This is what I have: I put a set of Napa Premium shoes and Centric drums on my truck and I am having problems. I started with a set of Centric shoes that adjusted tighter and tighter, even when braking going forward. I could hear the adjusters...

    2nd Gen Non-Engine/Transmission Anybody try Centric rear brake parts?

    I did. Let me tell you all about it. I bought a pair of drums and shoes made by Centric from Rock Auo. I put the parts omy truck and didn't get very far. The brakes tightened up every time I stopped. I could hear the left side tensioner release when I started from a stop. I took the brakes...

    Engine/Transmission (1994 - 1998) 97 Starting Question - Long Cranking Before Starting

    No, this isn't my problem. I replaced all the rubber lines when I bought the truck 5 years ago. I live is California so snow and road salt aren't a contributing factor to my problem. I think I am going to get the truck nice and warm and use a clamp to pinch off the return line. If it starts...

    Engine/Transmission (1994 - 1998) 97 Starting Question - Long Cranking Before Starting

    If this is an overflow valve problem why does it only happen when the engine is hot?

    Engine/Transmission (1994 - 1998) 97 Starting Question - Long Cranking Before Starting

    The idle speed is correct. I didn't have a problem before last week. I had the truck for 5 years. How do I check for a defective overflow valve?
