    D1 passenger front window issue

    Trying to figure out what could be the issue with my passenger side front window. Goes down fast and smooth. No hesitation, etc. Goes up smoothly until halfway and then it bogs down and sometimes even stop. With some encouragement pulling on the glass, it will clear the halfway point...

    Brake Master Cylinder Reservoir Seals/Grommets

    Went to bleed the system yesterday and was getting a leak at the reservoir grommet just as I was getting above 12 or so PSI on the pump. I have not been able to find the grommets anywhere. Truck is a 1997 with ABS (ABS disconnected and DOA for a while). The non-ABS reservoir kit is...

    A Frame Rear Ball Joint

    1997 D1. Surprisingly, this wasn't that big of a deal. Thankful it's a South West truck. 2 hours start to finish including my fumbling around. I'm having shoulder surgery in 2 weeks so I'm scrambling to complete PM's before I'm a one armed bandit for a while. The two cross bolts were a...

    1997 D1 Enginer Knock at Low End

    New noise I'm trying to sort out. Right from start up. Knock at bottom end. 1997 D1 with a 4.0. Cylinder heads done under 10k miles ago. Definitely bottom end noise. Last year, someone tried to steal the cats which is the welds you see where they patched the cuts. Doesn't get louder on...

    Odd rear wiper issue, 97 D1

    The rear wiper on the D1 has an interesting condition I can't figure out. When I have the ignition turned to accessories on, but with the engine not running, the rear wiper will work as normal. If turn the key all the way, without stopping at accessories, and start the truck the rear wiper...

    1997 D1 Sputtering/Stalling

    My son is driving our 1997 D1 4.0 GEMS truck right now to school. The other day it started to sputter and stall at idle and hiccup at RPM on the way home. Thankfully he safely limped home. I couldn't detect a vacuum leak. Removed and cleaned the ICV and MAF. Battery and alternator check...

    97 D1 bad starter?

    Just want to check in before I drop $200 on a new starter to see what else I could check or I'm missing. Truck starts every time, but it's very slow for the 2~3 seconds and then the starter comes up to speed and it fires up. Sounds strained and tired and then roars to life. Battery is about a...

    1997 D1 Random No Spark/Ignition.

    We have a 97 D1 with about 145k miles (odometer was wonky for a couple of years so we're unsure of actual). Running great. Even with a mild lift, bigger tires, and no front air dam, I'm still getting 12~15MPG. ABS long dead, but that's a different story for a different day. :) Out of the...
