    904 transmission question

    If the fluid is low enough to hamper performance, it will usually whine when put into reverse. Not sure but the whine is cavitation

    Temp Sending Unit Position?

    In the plumbing world it's called a reducing bushing or just a bushing. I've always liked to use a brass or stainless-steel bushing there.

    Will 80s calipers fit on a 74 d100

    Sure does! Thought maybe your new flex lines might be clogged.....but may not be quality control problem on the calipers. Probably more like parts sitting on a shelf for years on end....?

    Looking for a truck!

    My trucks don't need service records.....95, 96 and 97 :D and all still running great. Well, the 95 is pretty loose as I was pretty hard on it lol but yeah, my are the exception to the rule. Most people though don't keep good service records and betting that my records are better than most even...

    904 transmission question

    Fluid level up to where it should be checking in neutral and at operating temp? Who did the rebuild? Is it a shop and have a warranty?

    Temp Sending Unit Position?

    The plug where the USA tag is located should work....if not, someone will chime in. So long as it sees the water below the T-stat.....

    Engine swap header question

    How hard was it to blow it apart? I've only parted one Dakota and it was a 91 and it impressed me that it was fairly easy to pull it all apart.

    It is starting

    95@55% in my shop as I type.....91 with the same humidity just outside the back door with a carport cover over the gauge. The gauge inside is maybe 10' inside the building with a floor fan blowing in lol

    Engine swap header question

    Automatic transmission? And how fast do you plan on going? The 9" has a lot of aftermarket parts for it which makes it pretty good but also at a pretty good cost. It also robs a bit more power over the others.....

    Engine swap header question

    AJ, are you talking about freeing up server space or space from your own computer? It would be nice not to delete it from here if that's what you're talking about. I've built a 'few' engines too starting with my first one back in the mid 70's. Did I know what I was doing? Not really and didn't...

    Lube for the dang plastic wiper bushings??? What if any....

    They are the same.....

    Have you ever had to let a friend go?

    I let a 'friend' go after he kept trying to 'educate' me in machining (I'm a journeyman machinist and he isn't) and denounced me driving 'Dodges' when his newer Chevy was broke down in his driveway and still is.....got sick of his crap. Btw, that was several years ago and his Chevy diesel is...

    A reminder to everyone about posting personal details

    Don't post phone numbers either.....

    Lube for the dang plastic wiper bushings??? What if any....

    Well, getting ready to replace the bushings on the 95 and the 96 again. Someone posted a part number for the factory bushings but haven't checked to see if any are still available. I understand that these bushings were used on lots of cars too.....

    Is anybody in here?

    I'm here....are you?? Yeah, this place gets slow at times. One would think that there would be more interaction with all the different makes of truck forums but I'm thinking they don't care to mingle with all the makes.....?

    Solid magnum motor mounts?

    My 95 broke (or it rotted) the driver's side mount years ago.....I just installed a small chain.

    98 & up sliding rear window replacement

    Took a 1990 Dakota in for a slider (in 1990) and the place said they had one that fit but they didn't and didn't realize it until after the stock glass had already been removed. Well, there's a slight crown to the stock glass and it was reinstalled with the crown facing inwards. I pointed it out...

    Electrical issues with a 95 Dakota.....

    Nearly 3 years later and all is still well. This dang thing isn't ever going to die it seems lol. Even the AC still works but it leaks very slowly. It's been over a year since I put a can in it but ordered some from Wally World and it should be here today. Maybe I should have ordered more than 4...
