  1. Looking at replacing my u-joints in my 91 4wd loyale. I ordered GMB 220024 staked u- joints before I really did any research. I found that a 95 Toyota Privia van takes the same u-joint as the loyale. On rockauto they also offered GMB 2150021 for the van which has snap rings to secure it in place. Will these work, or is Rockford driveline the only ones that make a direct replacement?
  2. Awesome! Thank you. I have seen superpro before but could never find prices, they're not that bad.
  3. Any idea what size those bushings are and where to get aftermarket poly bushings for those locations?
  4. Does anyone know where to buy #2 and 11? And if they aren't available, what's an alternative.
  5. The car was originally built by FerGloyle with a 93 ej18. I have no idea what cross member is in there though. FerGloyle told me the transmission is a hybrid (early 90's legacy case with loyale gears), that's why it doesn't have an adapter. Once I found the metal/rubber washer I haven't had any issues.
  6. I just finished installing my fully rebuilt 95' ej22 into my 91' 4wd 5 speed manual loyale wagon. When I did the first start up there was an unbelievable metal to metal screaming sound. I immediately shut it off and wanted to puke. What had I done wrong? I checked all the pulleys on the new timing set, all good. Rotating the engine by hand I could hear metal scraping from the brand new clutch area. Engine is coming back out. I pulled the engine enough to pull the clutch, all good, must be the pilot bearing. Pulled the flywheel and saw the problem (see picture). The flywheel was rubbing on the engine support. The car had a ej18 in it and never had this problem. How? After looking at the old engine I found rubber covered metal washers stuck to old engine mounts. I slid those under the engine mounts and so far so good. Anyone else have a problem like this?
  7. Ok. I've got it all back together. When I get the time to put it in what are the proper break in procedures and what oil should I use for start-up and the first couple hundred miles?
  8. It does tilt in at the top. When I first got it the rear wheels didn't stick out like this at all. The first shop said they were a little out of alignment but they couldn't be adjusted. The second shop pulled the drivers side tire way out (so it looked like an old vw bug) then told me they couldn't figure out how to get it back in. The third shop was able to pull it back in a bit, but not enough. What are they not doing? I can't have this thing eat tires like this.
  9. Thanks. I read through your write up but I don't think it's a toe issue. If you look at my tire it looks just like the wear from a camber issue. How would i fix a camber angle problem?
