    Rear Caliper issue?

    I have an 08 expy. Since I bought the truck 30k miles ago, I have had what I thought was a warped rotor. While replacing the lateral links yesterday, I decided to lube the brakes. There were no clips for the pads to ride the caliper. Therefore, the pads were rusted to the caliper bracket. These...

    Power steering fluid change?

    I thought the PS was 100k. Its Mercon LV or V fluid. Easy to do yourself as well. Always good to keep a 600 dollar steering gear happy I suppose.

    Manual starter switch question

    From the wire diagram the solenoid is grounded by the neutral safety switch. So a manual switch on the control side is still pretty safe.

    Manual starter switch question

    So it sounds like he should hook up the switch to the relay not the solenoid?

    opinions wanted on a possible "new to me" Expy

    It depends on how much money you have. $1000 for anything you can still sit in is great if you have the money and time to rebuild it. When you are in the 250,*** range your buying a problems. so this is more of a fiscal question haha and I am no accountant.

    99 navigator valve cover

    passenger side is a pain, drain your radiator, removed all hoses, actually removed the wire harnesses, just no way around that. If you are nimble with your hands, and good with universal sockets and extensions it can be done. Though this is done a lot easier with a top side creeper, blankets...
