I hit my driver side mirror and busted the mirror itself the reflective piece. Now I like to know do I have to replace the whole mirror assembly? Mine still works, meaning the motor that moves the mirror. Is it hard to replace a mirror? Where would you go to get one and what years will fit my...

2000 Limited w/ 289k

Sorry for the tardy response but with everyone's help, I have saved my girl from the problem of the milkshake and other things...so far, knock on wood. The only thing that i have a small issue with is my local NAPA not having the correct size of transmission drain plug. This is embarrassing...

well sorry to say but I never seen a washer of any sort on it. For the very little time that I had to move the truck from parking space to work space (50-100yds tops), I used the stripped bolt with a rubber grommet and I pushed the screw in with all i could and turned it about 1-1.5 turns and...

well inline filter is on its way

Everybody, thank you for responding with positive suggestions, opinions andfacts. I truly appreciate it. Oh, and alumarine, I probably could have kept it in one thread. Biut what does it really matter? Nothing I guess. But thank you for the advisement

leaving now to go get one as I write this

fourfive, the thing is, is that I just assembled it back w/a new trans filter and gasket, smh. I never did the tap and die thing. Shoot, bending that damn front hard brake was killing me, lol

Crawlingjunk, wouldn't the grease contaminate the pan and/or fluid? Good idea none the less

Good morning members. It's a beautiful predawn day here in S.E. Pennsylvania. As some of you may know, my trans pan drain plug bolt is stripped and leaking fluid. Not radically but noticeably. My question is: If I am going to perform another trans flush say today, is it ok to rethread the...

3bears, i got a gasket & filter kit and everything went smooth. It was just a PITA unscrewing and screwing the pan. so far no leaks from pan to trans junction/abutment, just that damn drain bolt/plug. Now after all this my darn drivers (front) side hard line is leaking at caliper. I am...

as of now to the best of my knowledge, its the bolt. I have not seen nor looked at the pan to see. I always assumed that if the bolt is then so is whatever its going in to

you're awesome brother, thank you. Next, what is your opinion and/or suggestion as to the tran's stripped drain bolt? A member suggested some teflon tape which is worth a try. I would like to have a permanent fix though.

where and how is that/this done?
