    Grinding Noise

    U Joints are OG to my ownership, 70k miles and on my list to replace. I did notice a visible gouge in the FR rotor when I had the wheel off, but I would not say it was drastic. It made a 360 on the rotor, maybe a couple mm deep. The rotors were replaced when I did the axle overhaul.

    Grinding Noise

    Bump, any ideas? I’ll try to get a video of the noise if that’s helpful.

    Grinding Noise

    I’ll add, front DS tire has same movement. Here’s a pic of the front drive shaft, there’s an indent on the rust spot but no fresh metal to indicate rubbing.

    Grinding Noise

    I’ve had a grinding noise from the front right to middle right side of my cruiser for a few hundred miles. Sounds like a whaw whaw whaw only between 13-20MPH. Not a consistent sound, about 1 second between the whaws. Cold/hot same. Left turn right turn same. I took a rubber mallet to the...

    97 LC right rear door light

    The two problems likely are not related. My guess is door jamb switch and door lock actuator motor. Does the overhead light come on when the PS rear door is opened?

    Wit's End Turbo Owners - Thread #2.....

    Thanks y’all, fixed the washer issue and relocated the clamp so it’s not contacting down pipe. Ended up putting in a new screw and nut I had on hand. Next question, has anyone removed this bracket? IIRC I tried to unbolt it but it’s semi-permanently integrated to the MAF. It just bothers...

    Wit's End Turbo Owners - Thread #2.....

    When the shop did my reinstall, I don’t think they oriented the wastegate clamp properly. Two questions: 1) which direction should the clamp/bolt face. You can see it’s currently contacting the down pipe. 2) Pretty sure that’s not original hardware for the bolt and nut, what size do I need?

    80 Series Aftermarket Gauge Choices & Mounting Options

    If any of you have CarPlay, there’s an app (OnTrack) that works with Bluetooth OBD2 readers to display data on your head unit. You’ll need a specific Bluetooth reader and the app is $30/year or $4/mo I was a little hesitant, but the reader immediately paired with the app and displayed data. I...

    It’s accessible behind the door pillar. Removing the seatbelt mount helps to remove blue locking clip. Wire lead is off harness circled in red.

    O2 sensor came off

    Order the Denso unit from Rock Auto. I think you're looking for the downstream sensor.

    Transmission Oil Cooler - What are you using?

    Did you upgrade to all AN fittings to match the new cooler?

    Transmission Oil Cooler - What are you using?

    Bump...about to replace my leaking soft lines. Anyone find a direct replacement that's not $600? I'll probably just go the refurb route if not.

    Rain Gutter Trim question

    Mine appear original and are in various stages of deterioration. I think I could sand smooth in place to avoid warping, than apply something like 3M rubberized coating.

    Wit's End Turbo Owners - Thread #2.....

    This gauge is what the shop used to make sure turbo setup was good, didn’t think to look at instructions. FWIW I’m at sea level with high pressure today, 30.05

    Wit's End Turbo Owners - Thread #2.....

    For s***s and grins I connected a cheapo Bosch to the T fitting on the upper intake temporarily. What am I actually looking at? @ idle shows 20 vacuum Here's a driving video, starts at 20 vacuum then gets up to 3-4 pressure. I was 1/2 to 3/4 throttle and maybe 40mph, no more than 3500 RPM...

    Wit's End Turbo Owners - Thread #2.....

    Rebuild #1 included larger Brian Crower valves, 33mm intake & 39mm exhaust according to the invoice from the now defunct engine builder/machine shop. The engine ran perfectly prior to the rebuild minus oil consumption, i.e. no HG failure or overheating. I just wanted it to be solid for the...
