Tranny is on its way out. We shall see how long it can hold on. So if anyone has one for a 1994 pickup let me know. I wonder if it is turbo related (more power)

 

I too have a leaking substance accumulating inside my passenger rear wheel and i pulled the drum off and i found a leaking axle seal, so it COULD be and axle seal or a leaky wheel cylinder
Other than that I need a timing kit ASAP, i broke a shock the other day( already fixed that), And I need to tighten my front wheel bearings up, idler arm and pitman arm are starting to have some play, and my low beam headlights dont work (cant figure out why)...... I think thats it for this week. Oh and my horn only works when the wheel is turned past 45*! Just spent $470 on new tires!

 

It isnt so much of a fix but i like these rims but i know nothing about them. I have different ones with the clear chipping off and now i got splotchy rims so that y i am looking to put something on that i like.

 

my rear window key switch wont go down.. other than that shes running like a champ

 

What's done:

• Wiring work done, I'm quite pleased with that
• CB Radio installed
• Spiffy compass/external-temp/auto-dimming mirror installed
• Funky factory shift boots replaced with fresh hand-sewn leather goodness
• Fabricated new skid for the tailgate spring, no more crunching sound when I drop/raise the tailgate!
• L-shaped trim on passenger side replaced, although it needs a good cleaning, looks like it sat in the junkyard for a few years

What's left:

• Redo wiring for temp probe on mirror
• Install speaker baffles behind the 6.5" speakers in doors and cargo area
• Install spiffy boat-style pivoting cupholders
• Install electric lock solenoids and security system
• Find another late-80s 4-spoke alloy rim and replace spare tire
• State inspection (whups!).

 

OBTW, for those who are curious about this, look underneath between the tailgate and spare tire. If you see two broken bits of plastic bolted to the body with a nice rub mark in between, yours is broken, too! Another good sign is the telltale "crunchcrunchcrunch" sound you hear when you drop the tailgate.

Here's what I did...

Start with 2x2" angle-aluminum (you can get these at Lowe's):

1. cut a 7" long piece
2. cut off chunk to clear front mount
3. cut off corners to clear body contours
4. drill two holes for the mounting bolts

For the skid surface, I used 3/16" High-Density Polyethylene ("HDPE", you can buy 12"x12" sheets of these online):

1. cut 7"x2"strip
2. drilled two holes to align with aluminum bracket created above

Slapped it all together, voila!

(maybe I should pull it apart and take some pics..)

 

I need money!!!

I replaced the door hinges (drivers side only, passenger side is pretty good)
I got all the parts I need to pull the intake and redo my TPS wiring, hopfally get on that in the next week or two..

 

need to find where this high pitched squealing is coming from. and my front diff is leaking like crazy. better fix it before it gets ruined from lack of oil.

 

I've had a lot of things going wrong recently, however my currentl problem is with the rear window. The window will go up and down with the key. But when I use the switch, the window will go down when I press UP on the switch. Replaced switch and it does the same thing. So, I don't know.

Cruise Control doesn't work. Light comes on, but no go.
