    [Help] Trying to remove the dashboard, stuck at the steering column

    You need to remove the steering wheel. At least that's what I did. It's pretty quick and easy to do.

    [Help] Trying to remove the dashboard, stuck at the steering column

    My dash came out just fine when I dropped the column. I didn't need to remove it.

    Steering Rack Replacement

    I believe there are two bushings where the rack mounts. Napa should have those as well.

    Has anyone used the cv joint off eBay?

    The one for the front driveshaft at the transfer case. It's about$35 with free shipping. Just wondering if anyone has tried one and if they're decent quality. I've been thinking about it. You can get both front and rear prop shaft joints for $75.

    Fender clips from Dealer

    Are you talking about the rivets that hold them on? I went to harbor freight and bought a plastic riveter that came with an assortment of rivet then bought some extra in the right size. It worked great with no problems at all and was cheap. Plus if they break again you can fix it yourself. It's...

    Speedometer bouncing, all else is fine

    That's what I had done a couple years ago and added length as well as rerouted the wires so they wouldn't rub and fray anymore. I also wrapped the new wires in friction resistant tape. I can't imagine there'd be a new wiring issue. It's new from just inside the interior to the pigtail. I'll...

    Speedometer bouncing, all else is fine

    My speedometer occasionally drops to 0 then goes straight to correct speed. Only happens now and then. Odometer and other gauges are working fine. I did fix the wiring issue these have going to the rear speed sensor and replaced the sensor with a napa part 2 years ago. Could this be a sign the...

    what happens when the steering dampener (shock on steering) goes out?

    I guess that was a dumb question. I didn't even think if our ifs setups would have them. Thanks for ending my stupidity. Lol

    what happens when the steering dampener (shock on steering) goes out?

    I'm not sure if I'm calling it the right word, but it looks like a shock on the front of the steering gear. I'm wondering what you'd notice in steering when it goes bad.

    Anyone notice oil leaks or usage when changing from dyno to full synthetic oil

    I know it used to be said it would cause oil leaks on higher mileage engines that have been run on dyno oil because of the smaller molecules or something. I've also heard more oil burning can happen. But the oil is still far superior. I'm thinking of switching over to synthetic on my '02 3.7...

    Possible Heater core replacement

    It's a pain to replace it. It's not hard work, just a ton of nuts, screws, and bolts to take out. It's a good day job, I spread mine out aver 2 days about 4-5 hours a day. You do need to drop, not remove, the steering column. Start with removing all the trim then pull the center console. Once...

    3.7 oil crud probelm

    I wasn't trying to hijack this thread or anything when I asked my question. My engine runs perfect and doesn't seem to have any issues. I was confused about the fact that people are able to swap in newer motors. Thanks for clearing it up. I understand it requires mods to fit an 02. Thanks for...

    Strange vibration

    It's an 02 3.7 4x4 sport. 178,000 miles. Struts and springs were replaced a few years back by Po. Nothing has been done recently. I'll have to lift it up to check the wheels this weekend. It only happens when I'm on the gas, nothing vibrates when coasting.

    Strange vibration

    I'm getting a strange vibration when I hit the gas at all on my truck. I feel it mostly in the steering wheel, it shakes quite a bit when I take off from a stop. It came on very suddenly. It was fine in the morning then drove it in the afternoon and it was happening. What would cause this?

    3.7 oil crud probelm

    So a 2012 engine will bolt into an '02 without modifications and everything bolts up, even the computer works? Or am I not understanding that right?
