update: replaced the thermostat on the weekend and it had an aftermarket one with rubber seals in it that were bubbled. it no longer goes to half way on the guage before going back to normal. I havent got an opportunity to highway driv e uphill in 40 degree heat yet, but I think that was the...

shes definitely OEM :) all I can say about the hub, is it feels like its always felt, nice and thick to turn, so Im gonna rule that out for now. will swap the thermostat first since I got it and see what changes.

holly jeez, your thorough documentation never ceases to amaze me. just read through it at work, and will go through it again with the car later today. I keep forgetting that the rad can look full when its not, so hoping that that is the simple fix, otherwise im hoping its just he thermostat that...

well i really like that last sentence hahahha :) its got some bugs in it but nothing crazy but will still blast it out tho. I have a brand new thermostat from when i started this thread hahaha so maybe ill chuck that in. bleed by port? i googled that and didnt get anything solid, what is that...

lol, so im back in cooling territory again, and might as well put it here. specs again so you dont have to reread the thread, turboed 1982 hj47 troopy :) so since this i started this thread more then a year ago, its been perfect... until about a couple months ago. i noticed some dried red...

if thats the case im a leave it till it gets a locker i spose.

ooo, good idea, I got an old go pro. Ill give that a shot.

I did take a look at that specifically, and couldn't see any spots that looked like a weight fell off, from my memory they look like they're all there.

nothin eh? sell the car I guess ;)

no no, that was what I was looking for :) Id definitely know it was the problem if there was side to side movement, which there isn't any. so yes, very curious about how to know its the ring to pinion gear tolerance? is there something i can feel? or is it a "its seems to be nothing else so its...

hmmmm, i mean there is no play in the slip splines. its well greased as well. again, U-joints were all tested with the shaft completely off, zero play. what am i looking for in checking the pinion bearing? it has no side to side play at all. just the slack pick up rotationally, which i believe...

hahaha if it was moving a quarter inch side to side/up down, there'd be a'ellova lot more vibes on the highway!, probably would have a drive shaft poking through my floor by now ;) definitely zero play. that is not the issue.

Hi all, feel like this is thing ive read about this before but couldn't find anything about it. if its been discussed id love a link :) so ive got a low mild vibration at highway speed 95-100kmh going downhill when i let off the gas. if i accelerate again it goes away. if I let it idle/engine...

no, when you search their site there is no oem ones that come up. was not confrontational at all, just a statement of what I found. The Cruiserteq guy even chimes in with that they are not listed but they have them. so no. why you still tryna stir things up? the fugazzi discussion was a much...

so essentially you didnt have to type anything or say anything in here? added nothing of value. but you did. cool. what? maybe you like to come to your own conclusions based on blurry info and act on it. I prefer to have someone like OGBeno confirm what I think before passing up on a good deal...
