I need a D2 passenger side, fwd & aft seat motor and worm gear assembly

Sold

Good to know for the future. I sold it today but will still be in the market for another.

Have a D2 SE7 in Lexington with heads removed(still have them and other engine bits). Block is bad. $400 Headliner is removed but in decent condition. Also have some spare brake pads and metal type valley pan gasket that would go with it. You tow it

Good to know! Anyone know Nick’s website or contact info by chance?

excellent point lol

Probably Super dumb question. I pulled heads and pressure tested for slipped sleeve, and yes sleeve is slipped :mad: In my haste, as well as trying to be safe around the kids, i didn't put the vehicle in neutral. Now with all things disconnected, what is a good way to get the vehicle in...

curious how the LS conversion has held up? In the market for a new engine and thinking this would be a advantageous way forward.

I have a 2001 D2 with what I assume is a slipped sleeve (Exhaust in cooling system, and misfire in cylinder 3). asking 1200 if you want a parts truck. My Craig's list post says bad heads, however per further investigation ie cylinder 3 misfire I am now thinking the aforementioned slipped...

I have a 01 D2 if you are interested in that direction. Has blown heads and needs rear sun roof drivers side door has dent bumper is cracked. I am in Lexington

Definitely exhaust in the coolant. Still baffled that it held pressure.

Thanks guys I’ll let y’all know what I find out. I did also notice an unusual amount of oil in the throttle body via the crank pressure breather tube.....
