    Overheating Part II

    A few days ago I posted, and people suggested that my overheating was probably a bad thermostat and/or radiator being plugged. So I started with changing the thermostat today, with a Stant (13649) 195C thermostat, auto store said it was OE spec. Ran it for about 5 miles, could tell...

    drum brakes

    While rotating tires today, on the front driver side I noticed something that does not look good. I believe I am missing some sort of bolt that is connecting the front sway bar to the front driver side tire assembly? I really have not noticed any driving issues since the last time I believe...

    Transmission question

    I love this site. Been checking it out since I bought her back in 2001. So much good info! OK, to my question, I did and have done mostly highway miles to her current 175k miles with very limited towing. I have only had a Jiffy Lube do a transmission flush at 90K. I have actually...
