Dude... I couldn't even do that...

My factor ball joints lasted for 180k miles.

Little information to make you think. The lower joint is a actual BALL Joint with a ball on the end of the taper. The upper is not a BALL joint but a SHAFT joint. The upper has a long rod like shaft into the cup.

They was a discussion about the plastics used in them too. I think Wild & Free was the one that mention it.

Watch out of that spline design. There is another brand doing thing and it will limit you to buying their brand. Something about the spine and the making the OD bigger.

Congrads...

Just doing a general hunt for those part number on the internet turns out scary results. There hardly anyone selling Dana Spicer parts. Even common place like RockAuto or NAPA doesn't even list them. Now Amazon got a few... http://www.amazon.com/Yukon-YSPBJ-016-Joint-Dodge-Differential/dp/B00EHN7KXQ/ref=sr_1_2?ie=UTF8&qid=1451099098&sr=8-2&keywords=DANA+SPICER+708047 Obsolete part number? Maybe that's why there is so few of them on the web...

Taken care of... Moved to non-powertrain. On mine I was trying to fix the A/C freon leak and found that the solder joint of one of the tubes cracked and was weeping. So while mine was out I replaced the heater core as well.

Check your fuel filter drain valve. They are known to leak. It might be the o-rings are worn out too. Some people have been known to take them apart and reseal them. Depends on the version of valve.

Merry Christmas to you and welcome to our family!

I heard from a few different people that Moog is now manufactured in China. I've more or less given up on part name chasing.

He's just the family "Dork"... Nothing wrong with eyes in the sky watching your back when anything can snap and you'll need to run to get out of the way...

My next batch will be from Napa... Just plain old NAPA ball joints. My set I'm using now are RockAuto.Com but I forgot what cheap brand name I got.

Glad to meet you Lance. Heck I'm 45... You are not old. Well you better come up north next time for hunting...

My bad... I thought it was on like my Draw Straw which is just on port.

Return line has to remain. Supply can be capped off.

This was only 2 hours to yank out the HVAC case to change a heat core.

Absolutely!!!

Because your DVM is poor quality. It should be down around millivolt levels. So this means you current DVM does NOT have a setting down to say 2V AC or 200mV AC levels.

Really? This dog in deep snow?! Cookie jar next to him even... Talk about lazy dog...

Opps... We've managed to hi-jack this thread...

So what did everyone get for Christmas?

Merry Christmas to one and all !!!!

Typical HVAC removal. This is only a 1.5 to 2 hour job now for me.

Kick panel bolts? One driver side and one passenger side. Center support bolts? There are 2 bolts and 2 nuts here too...
