Re: Shift tower rebuild
Question. How do I delete a post? I posted twice by mistake and can't figure out how to get rid of one. FAQ don't help.

Re: Shift tower rebuild
The old Microsoft movie maker works well, is free and easy to use. I’d be happy to help you with it.

Re: Water pump questions

Re: Upper steering race
Jack the wheels off the ground and spin the steering wheel. It would grind if the race is cracked. I doubt that it is cracked. If it steered good last month, it’s not the upper race.

Re: King pin replace
If you do use a reamer, be sure you never turn it counterclockwise. You can ruin it with one little twist backwards.

Re: Troubleshooting advice
I bet your problem is an intake air leak. Do the trick with starting fluid before you start taking things apart. Goo luck.
