Q: i want to replace the rear transmission bushing and seals on a 1992 b250 so i had to wait a week to get the new bushing special order. it turns out to be the wrong bushing. two different dodge dealers came up with the same part number. they were able to use the vin number to determine what transmission i had. i went to a ma and pa transmission shop and the counter guy recognized the bushing as a ford part! no shit the ford bushing was an exact fit. my wife says no wonder it broke. .

.bobthanksbut besides being the acronym for a drug what is lsd also you mean even though i might never tow in 4x4 mode i would need to change gears in front also what would changing gears up to 3.92 due to my mileage also by changing the gears does this mean that the engine wont need to race up as much to get up the hills. with the k&n intake my wife and i can barely talk to each other when i rev up for the hills. sorry i ask so many questions but i know very little about trucksenginesrunning gear. thanks howard. youd to want to change the front as well. why make a 2wd out of a 4wd. changing to 390 or 410s will cut into you fuel economy. throw out the k$n and put the stock filter back that way you can hear your wife while shes telling you that you bought the wrong truck.g what do you mean by race up you might want to see just how bad things would go if you were to trade up to a 2500 with the cummins. you are going to be tossing a grand anyway at this one and then you probably wont be totally happy with it. right now there are some decent deals around. roy .

on thu 14 jul 2005 215519 -0400 roy roy@home.net wrote heres the deal about a year ago my wife sold he 2k eldo to her sister. about 5k after the transaction the car started to use oil. about 1&1/2 quarts every 1500 miles service manager at the local caddy place claims that is acceptable im not buying it. to take it a bit further thats 3 quarts gone between oil changes.car has a extended warranty but runs out in about 6 months. anybody know somebody who works at caddy service that might be able to get there hands on one of those memos or tsbs its my feeling that there is a known problem with the northstar and caddy is trying to wait her out. tia roy damn caddy dealers are worse that dodge dealers with the normal or acceptable... id have to ask that service manager why gm designed it to use a quart of oil every 1000 miles... you might also ask at alt.autos.4x4.chevy-trucks lot of knowledgeable gm folks hang out there.. thanks bro. ive tossed it around in a gm group have to see who comes up with what. im of a mind to tell her to extend the oil change to 5k and let gm come and pick up the pieces. of course in the owners manual they say to check the oil when you get gas. roy mac please remove splinters before emailing .

i have an 04 1500 ram 4x4 5.7 hemi quad with swb. the gears are 3.53. i bought this without knowing anything about towing and at the time only intended on towing a pop-up trailer which we never felt behind us. we upgraded to a 25 foot camper approx 5000.lbs. when in the hilly areas we noticed that we really have to work to get up some of the hills. we have only modified the truck with a k&n air intake kit so far. what should we do to give this truck a higher towing capacity i have heard changing the rear gears would help how much would something like this cost would my fuel mileage suffer i have 12000 miles on the truck now and would get screwed over by trading it for a 2500 ram. thanks howard .

well if you cant understand it than read it better it stops running when the key is releaed back in the run position the parts are all new its got all kinds of voltage have check that already new ignituion switch all so in addition to checking for voltage while the ignition switch is in the run position you might also check to make sure the anti-diesel solenoid if equipped is working. it should be pulled-in only when the ignition switch is in the run position. if not the engine very likely wont stay running. bryan .
