Yeah planning to use RTV black ultra, no gasket

I’ll try again a few more times. Perhaps the body mounts are compressed but they look ok. Almost have the turbo out anyhow.

I’m following TM sequence to service LH valve cover gasket. Plenum crossover and LH manifold must come off in sequence so as to not bend injection lines. TM 9-2320-387-24-2 Sections 15-20 15-16 16-4 15-11 The problem is there is not enough clearance to remove crossover from turbo outlet. A...

Ordered one from HPG. Gather prices are going up rapidly…

Regulator failed on the road today. I was fortunate to make it to my destination on battery. Q: suggestions on where to source this regulator? New/NOS pricing seems to vary $600-$900ish which IMO is pretty dear for a voltage regulator.

Scored an aftermarket rear shaft from a local community member. The shaft was a bit odd with a small flange 10k size plunge joint hub side and a 12k hub side joint. Works fine. We’ll see how it holds up.

Curious if anyone has cross reference the 12k joint parts to commercially available sub components. I saw a post for the 10k but not the 12K. Noticed GKN is one of the suppliers for the small flange 12k shafts. Maybe I’ll look at their documentation…

Pulled the shaft apart this afternoon. 2/3 rollers came off the cross inside the hub side joint. The cross and joint housing are a bit galled. looking for a few shaft now or at least a donor inner joint.

I’m getting into the LR shaft to assess problems with the hub side joint. Referencing TM 9-2320-387-24-1 section 6-7 for ECV. I’m not entirely clear on hub side joint disassembly. Any guidance appreciated. Are cross/clips/roller cages available? Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Completed reinstalling the rear differential assembly post rebuild. Lots of work on a spare time basis. Replaced rear driveline universal joints. New pads and rotors. Rotors were warped. Took the opportunity to replace RR brake line which was compromised. Flushed and bled all 4 corners with...

Fun with rear calipers today. Wound in easily with regular RH caliper tool and economy wrench [emoji373] together. Silglide on the pins. Now I need to find replacement rear hoses without the ridiculous hard line extension. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

TM covers procedure. Diff has to be removed for full access to seals. If you are pulling the assembly it’s the best time to inspect gearset and bearings for wear. Diff mounting brackets tend to come loose. Inspect/clean threads and use locktite per TM on reinstallation. Sent from my iPhone...
