And does the new line already come with the O-rings? And if I replace the dryer do I need to replace the O-ring on the second line? If so I assume I need 2 for that line making it a total of 4 O-rings?

Does anyone know the O-ring part numbers and if they are actually required. I already ordered the dryer and the line. And how does one add oil to the dryer? Sorry about the stupid questions. AC is something I have no experience in.

Just want to be clear on the symptom. The car downshifts in all gears just fine. Only at highway speeds when I give light throttle to mildly accelerate (and therefore not to downshift) does this sound appear. So maybe it has something to do with the rear output bearing? And how difficult is...

When I'm on the freeway anywhere from 55 to 80 mph when I give some light throttle (transmission stays in overdrive and does not downshift) I can hear a rotational sound almost like something is out of round. It's not a grinding or howling sound. I can definitely hear it and feel it in the...

Just an update. I finally figured this out a few months ago. The wheel bearings were bad. Apparently they had never been changed before and the water took them out of commission. Replaced both front bearings and all is fine now.

I'd be interested. Ever recovered or original?

Yes I’m in Houston.

This truck is the only thing that survived the flood and so I think it deserves to be fixed to run as it did before. Out of the house and 3 vehicles that we own this was the one that made it through, so I feel this is one special truck. Damn these things really are indestructible!

And could this also affect the rear axle also?

Thanks so much for the reply. I’m starting to get worried with this sound and having to take two little kids to school every morning. So the bushing if bad and fails what other things could happen besides the noise? Is it something I need to do ASAP? The car did sit in some water just up to...

How do I check the spindle bushing? It almost sounds like something rubbing on hollow plastic. Not a constant sound but staccato

Only happens when I turn right. Mostly from a stop and then making a right turn.

Guys, I've got a 1996 with 275K. Recently had the U-joint replaced. When I make a right turn, I hear a walrus like sound and can't figure what is the problem. Something is definitely rotating to cause this sound. Any ideas?
