    3rd Gen Mass Air Flow Sensor - Turbine version aftermarket results

    Well, it's finally time to do the modification. MAF is getting worse. One thing I did not mention in my original post, because it was not clear when I did the original research, is that the 1999+ setup has a slightly different air tube resonator (17893-62070). Also the 1999+ air tube has 2...

    Goofed on CV axle reboot - need bend over clamp band sourcing

    GhostRing, That URL came back as "We looked everywhere! Looks like this page is missing." For better context, I was using the OEM Front Drive Axle Reboot kit. I'm looking for a vendor that carries the bend back style clamp bands.

    Goofed on CV axle reboot - need bend over clamp band sourcing

    Hello, I was doing a CV axle reboot using Timmy the Toolman's video as a guide. I had copied down the instructions, to include the CV boot stretch mod, but didn't need to do that particular part. When I got to the part when you clip off the metal band for the rubber ring for boot mod (at...

    1999 Tall OEM suspension replacement with OME spring and Bilstein shocks suggestion

    Hello, Back at 170k miles, I replaced my front suspension with OEM 1999 suspension parts. 99 tall springs, shocks and all the related OEM bushings and wear and tear parts. Afterwards, I replaced the rear suspension with OME, Bilstein, and OEM bushing-like corresponding parts to match 99 tall...

    3rd Gen Mass Air Flow Sensor - Turbine version aftermarket results

    Chuckles, When you say no difference, does that mean the connector wires do not require re-pinning? Just a straight swap of everything from the MAF sensor to the airbox?

    3rd Gen Mass Air Flow Sensor - Turbine version aftermarket results

    So if you wanted to use the 99+ MAF and got the complete 99+ airbox components in front of the MAF, you would still have to rep-pin the 98 MAF connector plug? I'm guessing the bolt holes for the airbox/frame connection would be the same, but does anyone know for sure? I found that Rock Auto...

    3rd Gen Mass Air Flow Sensor - Turbine version aftermarket results

    Hi, Would like to know if anyone has replaced their 96-98 cylindrical "turbine" MAF sensor with a non-OEM aftermarket sensor? Which brand and have you had any problems with it? What did you ultimately settle on? Also, if anyone has converted from the turbine to the rectangular version for...

    Front upper control arm bushings - determination they are worn

    Tim, Watching your video was what motivated me to consider doing this job. I was wondering if the owner of the vehicle that you did the UCA bushing replacement reported any noticeable improvement in handling or vibration minimization after the replacement. Finally, I'm not a suspension...

    Front upper control arm bushings - determination they are worn

    I see nothing in the FSM and none of the posts describe how to check on whether or not the UCA bushings are worn out. Or if there is some road test to determine worn UCA bushings. Would appreciate any input on something that hasn't been touched on in previous posts.

    MF cat conv

    I put one on about 2 years ago after I went through all the low hanging fruit options for fixing the P code for Oxygen sensor. No recurrence of that code and it makes the stock exhaust sound a bit deeper at idle, but nothing obnoxious. Sent from my Pixel 3a using Tapatalk
