Re: Quick AC question

OK, I'll do that, does anyone have a diagram of the AC Vaccume system lines, where they run. Also how do I access it, do I have to take off the engine cover from inside the van, are they lines below the van?

Where can I purchase those lines if they are leaking, are they expensive?

Thanks
mike

Re: Quick AC question

Hey guys, I was having a tiny very small leak on my AC system. My stupid friend (will never touch my van again, said he can check it out). He said I need to get the old 134a sucked out and refilled with new one. No problem and it will be all good, he'll use a 134a stop leak and a another can of subz...

Re: Steering Issues

Hey, what brand of idler arm you got the life time warranty on? I looked at autozone and they have this duralast but with 2 year warranty. What is the brand of yours? Lifetime is good, I will replace myself. Thanks

Re: SPICER VS MOOG

Check rockauto.com you'll see the part number there. Autozone also have the duralast one for $45 each w/2 yr warranty. Funds are very tight at this moment. I was actually thinking of getting that or autozone one @ $45/pc and it does comes with 2 yr warranty so I can replace every 1.5 years. Until fu...

SPICER VS MOOG

Are they a huge difference in these?

I know the Moog are the one's to get but they are expensive. I won't mind replace mind every two year or so, but will the Spicer hold up.

I'm asking because
Moog @ $94.79 a piece
Spicer @ $19.24 a piece

So is it worth getting the Spicer?

Thanks
Mike

Re: Which shock absorbers do you prefer?

I put 4 Bilsteins on mine, man those are great. You can't get any better unless you go for koni (might be around 1K per set), bu Blisteins are well worth it. Very smooth and I did pack some weight on them one time, they hold up pretty good.

Soo... where's the pic you were going to post?

I'm having the same issue too. I haven't check anything yet, but I did some searching on this forum and will do a few test this weekend.
