    Just trying to have nice things. Initial part swap project has gone on too long.

    somehow magic happened and while spinning it with the drill off the car, I felt resistance for the first time and everything works now. This was a wild ride.

    Just trying to have nice things. Initial part swap project has gone on too long.

    What's weird is the pump isn't making any noise. I just took the pump off but left it connected, ran it with a drill and I'm seeing it pump fluid as I had air bubbles from disconnecting the line and reconnecting it. Fluid rises when drill is on, fluid drops when drill is off. I know for sure its...

    Just trying to have nice things. Initial part swap project has gone on too long.

    this whole situation contradicts itself, or I just do not understand the power steering/hydroboost enough to know Why it is doing what it is doing. I bench tested the pump before putting it on, i.e. Funnel filled with fluid on the low side, spin the wheel with my drill and squirt the roof from...

    Just trying to have nice things. Initial part swap project has gone on too long.

    I'm probably up there. I've already bought and installed two pumps so I'm trying to try a different approach before I swap it again. What bothers me is I can feel resistance from fluid being pushed around by the rack. The pump isn't making any horrible noises so it's not starved I would think...

    Just trying to have nice things. Initial part swap project has gone on too long.

    I've got nearly 175k, so I think to myself. you know what I should replace the steering rack, p/s pump, and A/c clutch. Everything is back together, turned the wheel lock to lock a couple of times and turned her on, repeat. Okay cool, steering feels better than before. I put it back on the...

    Power steering pump choice

    I bought a pump from rock auto, it's the same as what came off my car. Internally it's the same. Difference being rock auto doesn't have pullied pumps in stock, lmr has theirs with pulley installed. I would get it with pully.. I broke two bolts in my two pumps trying to install a new pulley lol.

    Can someone share some insight on those that eliminated the stock oil cooler

    Let the car idle in my driveway for about 15min and never really went over 180. Drove to work and again, never went over 200ish, it just hit 200ish and dropped to 170s at some point so I thought my tstat opened and my sensor was malfunctioning due to low coolant. -My thoughts are that I have...

    Can someone share some insight on those that eliminated the stock oil cooler

    Think of it as a Y, not an arrow lol. Sorry for confusion. Just making sure the overflow before the thermostat is right, or should I flip the housing and make the overflow plug in after the thermostat for pre 200* operations.

    Can someone share some insight on those that eliminated the stock oil cooler

    here is a rough diagram on my setup. I'm running a 180* thermostat in a MMR housing after the radiator. it has a plug I was able to run the overflow tank to before the thermostat. I opted for the Y-Block with the radiator cap option, but I'm using the hole to run my temp sensor. My issue is I'm...

    What else am I missing lol

    I already installed the longtubes, so no worries there. I was on an install high and felt I could do anything after rebuilding the IRS with new bearings and clutches lol. I also put in the Ford motorsport differential brace, MM IRS tie rods, and do believe I changed out the suffrage bushings to...

    What else am I missing lol

    So deployment is coming to an end and I ordered a bunch of goodies. I intended to treat myself to a 2.3L whipple, but shipping to Hawaii is around 300-600$. Instead I decided I would be responsible and install supporting mods for it and hopefully get one when I move back to the mainland at the...

    Longtubes into another brand's mid pipe

    I have a pypes catless x, went to long tubes and figured i would just cut the legs off and add flanges.. nope! The bbk headers where more narrow than the x-pipe. I wasn't about to spend $600+astronomically high shipping to hawaii so i cut up my pypes and narrowed them. Since most manufacturers...

    At what point should I ditch my stock oil cooler assembly?

    this little crack is causing a leak lol. i replaced the o-rings inside and rtv'd it all up.. just oil drips like crazy since the sensor makes the crack larger. actually i just had an Ahah moment. i can use the other hole thats just a plug and move the sensor.

    At what point should I ditch my stock oil cooler assembly?

    So I installed the long-tubes and figured I would fix the p/s and oil leaks while the k-member is out. I took out the oil cooler assembly and replaced all of the o-rings..now my cooler appears to be on its last legs. with the new o-rings in I was getting coolant seeping out of the inner cylinder...
