My 86 GL-10 T-Wagon has no rear sway bar Yet

May I suggest putting them in the Marketplace? Christmas is coming, and we all need to buy presents. Connie, I think you better get busy - you have no idea what this board can do And btw, sausage with M&C is quite good.

I think what Gary is trying to say about the timing issue, is the dreaded "pre detonation". This just might be your problem Tex.

I've done a few solo tranny R&R's, and its usually the shaft end thats not lining up with the pilot bearing. Make sure the car is secure and once the engine is tilted push the tranny in till it stops. Then you need to get physical with it and shake it around to make it slip in (dont go there guys). This will help it thru the clutch splines also, you might try turning the axle stubs to get the shaft to turn.

Can we sticky this for a couple weeks?

If anyone needs a permit, I have 4 @ $10ea.

Yep, what he said. A shield to protect the plugs and the back of a feedback carb.

I'm in

Uh, was that local to Cheney? It almost looks like Cle Elum area.

Great info from the XT6 guru's. They helped me trouble shoot my suspension, but I had to many things going bad and didnt want to spend alot of money to get it right again. But I think we are forgetting that the car in question was damaged in the area of the compressor and air tank. I'm surprised the comp works after taking a hit, but theres definatly some damage done to some other components like the air tank, lines and probably the shock(s).

I located the original sender. Let me know when you want it.

Most likely one of the sensors inside the shock itself. When this doesnt work the compressor wont run. I had the same problem on my XT6 and when I replaced the front with Legacy struts the stupid compressor started working again You will need to replace the air shock on that side to fix it(if you can find one). And the price new is like $150ea.

What are you doing with the other leftovers? I might have a home for them (minus the diff).

Yours are totally different than our bars. We dont have Roo's here :cool: Your most likely going to have to do some fab work to get it to fit.

Have you installed the stock temp sensor yet?

Do you have a Tach in it? Shift at 3K RPM, this will give you optimal rpm's for drivibility.

Operose, your right - my bad. Thats what happens when you post early AM

After some more thought on this I dont think its a freeze plug. The pop you heard was the rad cap coming off, and the water running out was what was coming out of the rad too. The engine was producing back pressure in the cooling system, or maybe the cap wasnt on tight? Maybe a bad thermostat that wouldnt open caused it? But then the temp gauge would go up if that was the case. What kind of HG's did you use on the rebuild? How old is the Rad? Yeah, I know. Just more questions....

Well in most circumstances our definitions are the same. But when it comes to slang, we are totally different. A long block is the entire engine. Block, heads, intake and all the other accessories. A short block is just the block, with none of the heads or other parts mentioned above. Rice. This is what we call a car thats had alot of bling bling put on it that does nothing for the drivebility, handling or performance of the car. Honda's? They generally deserve the Rice label We like to stomp them in racing with our "Old Gen" Soobs against their big $$ cars. Altho there are some really hot performance Honda's (VTEC), most the time they just try and look fast. Here are a few more abbr: TPS - Throttle Position Sensor DP - Down Pipe for a Turbo'd Soob WS - Wind Shield (or screen) PB - Push Button (for 5spd single range)

You DOG! Did you get any pics? I saw some of the show on Speed, but they just showed all the name brand stuff. Some pretty cool stuff there, thats for sure.

Jeez Tex, I want to scream as much as you do(or did). The first thing that comes to my mind is a freeze plug. Might be wrong tho, but I cant think of anything else right now.

This would be Patrick, the only US direct dealer of the BYB lift. His web site is Ozified

I sent Tex an email on how he wants them sent to him. I have few, but they may need to be zipped or compressed to email.

You might want to read the first post And view the pics in the Gallery too.

Thats a pertty 3dr Even if it is red (I'm superstitous). Garner, these WS are glued in. I will be getting a quote for a replacement on my wagon this week, I'll post it when I get it. Dan, you pay for my gas and I'll get that tranny(if its in PDX)
