Got it in the garage today and greased everything and the problem still persists. I did find that my tie rod end's rubber boot are dry rotted and won't even hold grease anymore, it just seeps out the cracks. I am going to order new ones this week on payday and see if that fixes the pop, I hope so. W...

My van is RWD, not AWD. I am heading to lowes to buy a grease gun after lunch. Is there more to grease than just the 4 balljoints? Also I never got a straight answer, could that cause the popping? I haven't been driving the van and I don't want to until it is fixed so I'm going to try everything. I ...

I have a 2000 RWD Astro. I have been noticing a popping that is very frequent when I am turning into a parking place or turning at all at slow speeds. I changed my wheel bearings today hoping that would fix it and after they were installed I grabbed each wheel and tried to move them. Also my friend ...

I have a little girl due in December so I need to get my rear heat working asap. I have a 2000 Astro with factory rear heat and AC. Heat and air work great up front, AC works great in the rear, but heat does not work in the rear. I am assuming that the heater core is a good place to start on fixing ...

I also have a Scangauge II and love it.

Cheap and they ship extremely fast. I am placing an order today for all new tie rods on our Datsun (listed under Nissan PL521)

The Fed-Ex lable says 36.5lbs, but I have not weighed them. And by the way the hub bore was 82 when they came not 94.

Wow, Those are gonna be T H I N... Good Luck, Jim I would like to go with a thicker sidewall such as the 255/45/20 as listed above, it is a 29.04" diameter so I don't see why it wouldn't work, but I can't find anyone running this combination which makes me think that there may be rubbing issues.

I want a tire close to the factory height, would a 255/45/20 be an alright size to run? I gave you this Tire Size Calculator in your other topic on this sort of subject. http://www.rimsntires.com/specs.jsp It will let you visually compare your Stock Size with your desired upgrade size. Have a look ...

I have a stock height 2000 Rwd and just ordered some 20x8.5" wheels, now I am shopping tires. I want a tire close to the factory height, would a 255/45/20 be an alright size to run?

Make sure you aren't spending more than $736 for the set with FREE SHIPPING . That is 20x8.5 5x5. Unless you are going polished/chrome. Black or gray center should cost you no more than that. Check Tire-easy.com for some tires and maybe you won't have to wait to get the package together. Nice, than...

I have a Scangauge II in my van to monitor my transmission temperature and I love it.

I wouldn't think it would hurt it too bad, I will be running a stock height tire and I have helper bags and trailer brakes. I would really like to upgrade the front brakes though. Also I see threads everywhere where people have towed 5000+ lbs with their Astro, I just need to take it easy and watch ...

Short answer is yes they fit no problem. Long answer is, 18" Boss 338 wheels did not have the correct hub bore, so I had to run a 1/4" spacer up front to clear dust cap, they obviously clear fine on the rear drums, but I put the 1/4 spacer on there as well so the would match up front usin...
