I will also be doing this on my 94 this weekend. I m curious as to what tools I will need ? Also do I have to take the hub off to replace the rotors ? I'm replacing the rotors ,pads and calipers on the front. If Its necessary to take the hub off then I might as well replace the bearings and...

Should I replace the wheel bearings if I replace the rotors ? Mike

I have an issue that is driving me crazy. I have a vibration that starts around 30 miles an hour then kind of goes away for little bit then comes back around 45 ,then minimize again and comes back around 60 . the whole vehicle vibrates ,I installed 4 new tires and that did not seem to fix the...

Thanks I will try that. Mike

Happened after fixing the oil cooler leak and I drilled the air box and I steamed the under carriage . I'm lost Mike

Well after fixing my oil cooler leak and manifold leak, I have yet a new issue. My truck has developed a vibration from 0 to 60 . Where are some of the places I can look? I find that when I'm on the gas it vibrate more than when I release the gas. The whole truck vibrate . What could it be ? I...

Upon further inspection I found that the flange to the crossover / manifold was where the leak was . I found the three studs were hand loose ,so I tighten them up and there is no leak anymore and I passed inspection. Mike

Went in to tackle the manifold leak and found that all three studs on crossover- manifold connection were hand loose and I tighten them all up and there is no more leak LOL. What a relief . Mike

I've already sprayed it. Its The gasket that connects the manifold to the crossover pipe . If I remove the three studs on the crossover flange will there be any play or must I take the thee studs out from the passenger side manifold - crossover connection to have some play to put new seal in...

The one I'm going to is a full shop. What if any specialty tools do I need to do it myself. ? I was thinking that loosening the. driver side manifold would be the easiest way to do it.looks like the passenger side manifold is harder to get to. your thoughts ? Thanks Mike

They wanted $1200.00 to replace a flange gasket at the driverside manifold,crossover connection! Are they out of their mind. I going to do it myself ,or have a muffler shop cut out the crossover pipe and fabricate a y pipe. What do you think? Shouldn't cost more than $400 to have exhaust shop...

Sorry to hear the bad news Mike

I cant seem to find a DIY on doing the exhaust manifold leak on my 1994 . I would like some info on people who have done this before. Im doing the driver side. What's the best way to attack this? What tools will I need? What do I need to remove? Should I spray something in advance? What are the...

I was wondering what I can expect to pay for a exhaust job.$300 $400, $500? I like an idea of what it will cost me. Oh yeah I have a 1994 3.0 v6 thanks for reading Mike

From what I can tell its leaking around the exhaust manifold flange. I put my hand down around that area on a cold start and found exhaust leaking at the flange . Also I pin pointed it with a seafoam treatment. I like the flowmaster but ill see when I get to the muffler shop. Mike
