Must use LSD additive if LSD, additive will not affect open diff but regular GL without additive will damage LSD. Play it safe and use LSD safe GL if you're not sure.

I'm with you on that, and Facebook too.

I'm lucky so far, my FE has been holding up well. I did the struts. The most time and money has been into the rear. I did the lower CA bushings, the exhaust, just finished alt and battery and I still need to do the upper CA bushings. I am getting a minor clunking from the front that I need to address soon as well. Other than those little issues, these trucks are built tough and access to replacement parts is getting cheaper and easier. My wife and I came close to selling our Pathy but realized soon enough that it is worth way more to us than anyone else, that's why I say repairing yours is worth it.

That's a good start, I just finished dropping another $1000 in my 98 with 230,000kms and it is well worth it.

Will do, thanks.

Hmm, mine is one of the listed. Does this cause the check engine light to come on as well?

That's awesome, me wants! P.S. Do up your seatbelt....

Looks like I'm due for a new alternator too. What years/engine Quest alternators will work? Are they the same as the Mercury Villager alternators?

Both arms in 4 hours is actually pretty good.

I usually don't plug in my block heater till it's -15 or 20C so your 10 below would be plenty cold enough to plug it in or at least it wouldn't hurt.

This is where I used an angle grinder with a narrow cutting wheel and cut off the head of the bolt. The order I did the removal was this: 1) Loosen the nut 2) Grind off the head right down to the mount (this is 5-10 minutes) 3) Tighten the nut again to turn the bolt and free up the head end of the bolt 4) The Bolt SHOULD pull through from the nut end. If it doesn't, impact chisel the nut end off as close to the mount as possible and pry the mount opening apart enough to remove the arm with bolt, bushing and sleeve still in it. As far as the sleeve around the bushing, I never removed mine because I had no idea how to get it out and I was able to press the new bushing in (with great difficulty). here is the post that I think is the real deal. If you can find a socket or something of the same circumference as the sleeve but not as big as the arm housing, you should be able to press it right out. Remember to use ALOT of grease when you press the new bushings in.

Heehee, I should have got one of those pics too....except made them 'before and after' pics. My thermometer like that had snow on it and when I brushed the snow off to see the temp, the needle DROPPED a couple of degrees..sheesh!

Low coolant level?

Pro for some, con for others.... I get a kick out of him
