    Front AC Blower Fan Only Works on Heat

    Front AC blower fan only works on when thermostat is set to higher temperatures, and slows to a stop when set to colder temperatures. After working through some overheating issues that seem to be a result of air in the coolant hoses, I have come across and issue with the front climate control...

    04 CDL Linkage Install Question

    I just got a little info on another forum that says the cable is adjustable. The cable is threaded with a nut on each side of the bracket. Does this sound like it might be the ticket?

    04 CDL Linkage Install Question

    Here is the only part I'm a little unclear about. Tighten the lock nuts on the diff lock cable (22MM) so it stays at the correct angle. Its only a small amount of movement to engage the diff lock. The spigot turns roughly 40 degrees to the right to engage. Now connect the cable to the new...

    04 CDL Linkage Install Question

    If you're referring to the metal plate that the linkage bolts to, then yes, I did cut it. Plenty of room for the lever to move. But it doesn't seem to need a ton of side to side movement to do its job.

    04 CDL Linkage Install Question

    So I attempted to install the 04 shifter today. Unfortunately I'm not able to unlock CDL with the shifter. The lever does not move far enough to turn the cdl bolt far enough. If I pull the connector on the cable, then I'm able to move the bolt that little extra bit that is needed to unlock, but...

    04 CDL Linkage Install Question

    Well this is exciting. Sure would have loved to have this before the Robesonia Trials event, but I guess I'll just click and clunk my way through the courses one last time.

    Loud clunk/bang in front end

    I'm wishing I would have filmed the forward and backward play, instead of side to side. Feel like that would have been a more fair assessment. Would you guys use oem or poly bushing?

    Would be interested in hearing what RTE had up their sleeve for a rear panhard rod setup.

    That was very helpful. Does it matter that I only have a two inch lift at the moment? Was thinking about spacers for a little extra.

    Loud clunk/bang in front end

    Can anyone tell me if the video about shows a normal amount of play, or is this a sign I need new bushings?
