    Anybody know how to remove this trim piece (DII)

    This is the black trim behind the rear doors. Pics below. Looks like it's held on by a couple bolts that thread into the body, but I can't figure out how to take it off without breaking it. The top side has loosened, and the rattling is getting annoying. I dug through my RAVE, but I can't...

    For those installing 04 CDL

    Just finished the 04 CDL linkage install last week. All in all, it's not that bad of a job, but I was working by myself, so it did take a little while. The only things I might like to pass on are The instructions call for the replacement of about 13 rivets on a metal plate that the tranny...

    D2 Driveshaft Tools

    Okay, so I crawled under the D2 tonight to hit all the bolts with PB Blaster, and kind of "size up" the operation and see what I might need. I couldn't get any sockets on there, but I could pretty easily get the endwrenches on, though it's going to take a bit more force than that. I considered...

    Diagnosis.... or is it Prognosis...?

    Okay well today I ran out to the car to top it off with oil (looked about 1/2 qt low) and when I opened the oil filler cap I noticed some dreaded goo on the inside (see pictures). I'm aware this is usually an indication of a head gasket leak but I'm a little confused as my coolant level seems...
