Ok. I am on a hunting expedition. I am in Dallas, and I am looking for a REASONABLY PRICED mechanic to do a head gasket and valley gasket job. I wanted to do this myself, but I am not sure what can of worms this is goiing to open up, and I am pretty confident I have a slipped sleeve. Finding...

I am wondering about pinning a liner but have some questions. I searched a bit and just did not find as much info as it relates to this. Here is my back story. This is going to be tackled on my wife's truck. It is not loosing oil, but the coolant is slowly dropping and appears to bubbling...

So I have taken to addressing some of the issues with my wife's truck. Here is my new challenge should I chose to accept. The truck is a 2004 D2 A while ago I was loosing oil, loosing fluid, you name it. Thought I had a blow HG but turns out the oil loss was from the valve covers. Tightened...

I did some searching and only came across a thread of guys insulting each other. Anyone know where the thread is of how the guy used some tommy bahama fabric as a head liner in his truck. I am going to replace the wife's and wanted the example.

So now I created a new problem, but this highlights one of the most stupid design things I have seen in a while. I was looking into a coolant leak issue last night on my wife's truck and went to tighten a hose clamp. The clamp snapped some of the plastic hosing and started spewing coolant all...

Hello all. I need a little help here and after some searching on this forum I am a little worried. My wife has a DII that started leaking all kinds of stuff lately. The water pump went out, we ordered a rebuilt one, got a warranty replacement. A short time later we kept smelling coolant...

Hey guys. A little help outside the search button. My wife has an 04 disco and lately we have had all sorts of fits with it. It overheated a couple of times last summer due to a bad water pump which has been replaced. That is some background but here is what we are trying to address...

I have a new issue I am trying to diagnose and I think it is in the belt area. This is what I know. I recently replaced the alternator and a day later went to start it and started hearing what sounded like a hair dryer type of noise from the front of the engine or the belt pulley area. Again...

Hello All. I just got home from a great trip pulling a fleetwood evolution E3 trailer with my wifes 2004 D2. Had a some concerns while towing though. When i drop the hitch of this trailer down on the ball behind our d2 the trailer really drops the rear of the truck WAY down. I measured and I...

My wife's 04 is just starting to give some indication that the headliner is starting to fall down a little bit. I realize replacing it is probably the way to go but, anyone have any ideas on how to possibly repair or halt the failure of the existing one? Thanks.

I checked the forums high and low for a way to connect my wifes iphone to the stereo since the cd changer/sounds stuck!! I did not find it here but did find something by a group called grom. Got it tonight and it comes with a 3.5 jack and iphone/ipod connection. The darn thing is simply easy...
