  1. i had one in my parts car. only took 1.5 hour. Hope it lasts
  2. It's a slimy mess under the dash. Thanks, I never would have looked in the cab for a leak.
  3. Quick clutch question. Did the 3" body lift over a month ago. Noticed right away the clutch had some play in it. Next day checked the fluid and it was low. Traced tubing back to tranny, no signs of leakage other than an oil spot from top of tranny in middle. Couldn't tell if it was break or tranny fluid. Got my daughter to pump clutch til she was tired and saw no dripping. So just wrote it off as coincidence. Last week noticed clutch had play again, refilled. yesteday out of fluid. All i can make is it is the oil leak from top of tranny down. (probably tranny fluid would not leak from top as fluid does not go higher than fill line? I don't know for sure.) My question is does the clutch have a slave cylinder on top of the tranny '87 WD21 5SP manual? ( As you can tell I have been too lazy to wash and crawl under there and look) I'd like to try to pick one up on the way home today. If so where on the tranny is it located if it exists?
  4. Probably the same reason I want one. It looks BadArse. Plus you don't have to wade thru a hole to see if its to deep. Creep in slowly, if it doesn't come over the hood it's not to deep!
  5. I like the chick in the first photo. She's hot IMHO
  6. Don't know. The starter is a PITA. I wouldn't change it unlessl I was sure. I'd hate for you to spend that money only to have the same problem. Here's a link with a similar thread. You should try to run codes first to see if it's a sensor or injector. http://npora.ipbhost.com//index.php?showto...mp;hl=warmed+up If you get a bad code there are several places here to check them.
  7. PM me a price if you'd sale one made of plastic.
  8. My carpet was stuck like MOFO. I cut some of mine to get to the screws. as long as you don't get wider than the boot you won't see it.
  9. Hmmmmmmmm... I wonder if you could get solid stock PVC or HDPE and mill one out of plastic? Not that aluminum isn't superior.
  10. Tell more about cap. Did you mill it from aluminum? What is diamter of cap what are the diameter of the drilled holes? Very sweet.
  11. Me personnally got a 3" lift and bigger tires. Mr. Pickles your neighborhood looks a lot like where I grew up in Alabama with all the pine trees.
  12. I'm sorry man, I was hoping to hear some a-hole just came out and hit me head on. You were talking about getting the wife something newer, does this mean you now will be driving her car?
  13. Say it ain't so! Tell us what happened. Spill it!
  14. As far as being easy to pull, I already had the dash out of my parts car so it was quite simple. You probably want to avoid pulling the dash. Sorry man sold mine to a cannuck. :hides from Pezzy:
  15. Just keep it ventilated the next few days with the windows cracked at night. You'll be fine. Remember some huffers breathe straight freon trying to get high. Somehow they live, but never get smart!
  16. Your welcome, it's nice to have a member 6 miles away.
  17. His shaft was screwed, you could hold one end and turn the other. Swapped it with the parts car and it's running now. Just when the timing sounds right, when you tighten it down it gets off. Bobby's going to get a timing light tomorrow and nail it down. Thanks for all your help guys, that was the hardest tune up I've ever seen. At least he didn't have to buy a distributor.
  18. Edit: WD-40 got the sleeve off, but now the timings off. He was able to get it close enough but needs to be fine tuned.
  19. Just talked to Bobby and he got the rotor off, but the metal sleeve is still on. He's going to try to put some heat on it.
  20. I don't know Bobby, I took the screw off the rotor button and is slid right off. Did you take the screw all the way out? Maybe it got hot and melted or so some corrosion occured and siezed it to the distributor?
  21. edit: Are you loosing fluid? When you hold down the brake does it loose resistance? you did say power steering end edit You could check the hoses, I've had to replace mine once. If it's truly leaking like a sieve it should be easy to find the source. BTW< mine is a WD21 don't know how closely it resembles the R50 set-up.
  22. Try this ... http://npora.ipbhost.com//index.php?s=&amp...st&p=108682 Make sure your grounded,
  23. :worthless: It's not worthless, are you still running stock UCA's? Rumor is you can't get good alignment without them because they're too short. I got mine used for $75-100 bucks, can't remember.
  24. I won't let you desecrete Macgyver like that. You didn't even use duct tape!
  25. Thanks for the good info. Bye bye safety hoop
