    Steering issue

    Holy Sh!t, 13.9? That's flying man. Your trap speed indicates that you make up most of your time in the first half of the run. But You'll run all over a lot cars with a sub 14 time. Has anybody ever run our rig in the quarter, in stock form? Cause I would bet mine is a 19-20...

    Steering issue

    SO here's a question: I cant locate a factory service manual for my rig. And the Haynes pretty much sucks. So how do I get some guidance on R&Ring this part? It doesnt sound too difficult, but I like following manuals as opposed to guessing...

    Steering issue

    Will this steering sensor have good days and bad days? As in, will it operate normally for a while, and then start acting goofy, and then go back to proper operation. Because, for the last 2 weeks, my "jumping to the right" problem has been nonexistant. This is really odd. I fully...

    Steering issue

    My rig likes to jump to the right if I'm in the left lane of a 4 lane (which slopes to the left) and have to hold the wheel to the right to counter the slope. Basically when I hold the wheel to account for the left slope the wheel will often times "let go" for about an inch and then catch...

    Noisy Valves

    Dropped my truck off for an A/C line and heater core replacement 10 days ago. I picked it up wed and upon startup, it was very sluggish feeling and put off noticeable valve tick. After driving 15 miles, shutting it down, and driving another 5 or so, the noise was greatly reduced. I remember...

    Another quickie here: I've got to check two faultly switches on my master panel, and the window switch on front passenger. Out of curiosity, I lifted the back of the soft panel just a bit on driver door and it began to pull away. My question: Is there a certain technique I should use to...

    Hissing noise while braking

    Thanks! I'll do that. The hissing does seem to be in the footwell. But heck, I could just be hearing it through the firewall... I will check and report back.

    Hissing noise while braking

    My guess is i've got a leak in the vacuum booster. First of all, I have not poked around on it, but will this weekend. Secondly, I've got significant pedal travel, which i know could be the result of air in the lines, worn pads, or some other trouble. But the hiss is easy to hear when...

    door adjustment?

    JK, Thanks for the quick reply! I did examine the hinge pins last night and noticed the top hinge pin appeared offset to one side of its hole. Naturally this concerned me a bit, as I wondered if the pin had enlarged the hinge's holes!!! So, as I understand it, there are bushings that press...

    door adjustment?

    Hey folks, New owner here - 1997 4x4 with 80k on the clock. Bought it from the librarian of a small town - great previous owner! Anyhow, the drivers door sags a bit. As in, when you close the door it bangs a little and lifts up as it goes over the stud. My old Range Rover allows me to...
