Thread: What did you do to your car today? Vol 2.0

I'm thinking that the booster may have made it a bit easier overall.

What's the problem? GM left JUST enough room to barely get in there. LOL

All done and home. Reinstallation was easy. Ac blows a little colder and more importantly gets cold much faster. The old one was all black and gummed up. My instructor asked if he could have it since there was a screw in the end of it from me extracting it lol. It tells a story, he said. Sure does

Way to go, Blue! When the job is a knuckle buster it sure does help when it works right afterwards. Wonder what all kinds of storytelling doodads teach has. Glad you nailed it, heater core was like that for me other day.

Thanks, and same to you on the heater core. I've done one of those in an 06 gp. Wasn't particularly fun, especially in 85° and humid.

I have talked to several mechanics and they thought it was ball joints or wheel barrings, so I replaced the lower control arms and the barrings, I saw that the anti sway bar bushings and end bushings looked worn, so I replaced them too, but still I am getting the clunk. I now think that it may be the body bushings or body mounts, but all I can find on line is the forward ones, does anyone know where I can find a full set of bushings for a good price, and any comments or theories about what else the noise could be are very welcome. This may not be the appropriate place to post this, but I can never figure out how to start a new thread. I should mention that the transmission was rebuilt a couple of years ago and the motor and trans mounts were replaced at the time, also I replaced the upper strut mounts with poly urethane, so that is not the issue. Thanks in advance.

lower engine and tranny mounts are shot i bet. especially if you leak oil.

sway bar bushings also go bad and clunk, the ones under the cap holding it to the frame. ball joints can also clunk if bad enough, but i think you'd feel the front end clunks over bumps too.

to post a thread you find the section you want to post in, then click post new thread top left of the window, its a big red button.

Have someone under the hood and go from reverse to drive.
