    Grrr....Diff lock stuck in locked position

    Where is the "indicator light plunger?" Ever since winter hit the light no longer comes on, but I think the CDL is still engaging and disengaging.

    inner wheel oil/grease leak

    Thank you all. Topped off both sides with heavier gear oil and made my 400 mile trip. It doesn't seem to be leaking any more and I don't have anymore long trips, so I'll wait until after winter to replace seals.

    inner wheel oil/grease leak

    I just noticed this oil leak on the inside of the tire. (slung out in all directions on tire) I assume from the inner shaft seal, but also looks like leaking from swivel housing. My question is.... How far can I drive. I need to make it about 400 miles. I was thinking I could keep checking the...

    Advice needed - Rust repair and tracking down leak

    I just realized that you can adjust the door lock striker to make the door seal tighter to the seal. I have adjusted the rear door about 1 mm. I have to slam the door a little harder to make it close, but hoping it will seal at the top better and not let water in when it rains.

    Exhaust Manifold Studs

    Thanks drum, I just ended up ordering from BA. It is wild that we can't just get the info on a bolt size. I just I need to buy the parts manual... I have a similar fix where I used nuts and bolts from Home Depot for the drive shaft. The size and strength of a bolt seems universal enough to allow...

    1998 D1 SD transmission temp

    It is an automatic transmission. I don't know the exact model number. Were they all the same for US models from 94-99? I read the transmission fluid doesn't start breaking down until 300F, so I stopped worrying about it being 160F. I made the post and was unsure about driving it to...

    1998 D1 SD transmission temp

    Hello! First Post! I've been driving this white discovery off and on since 2010 and making repairs along the way. I've always wondered if the transmission and gear box temperature were too hot. I changed the gear box oil back in 2014 but it still ran "hot," so I just thought that was normal...
