Hello from Baltimore

Post by Racer X »

I just got a 2000 cargo van. I got it to carry a motorcycle to the race track. It has a lot of miles but a lot has bin replaced. There are still some issues and leaks to sort out. And I have bin customising it for long road trips.

It means you will have to use a photo-hosting site, like photobucket or one of the many different free sites out there to post you're pics. Here is how to do it...viewtopic.php?f=16&t=210

I put some photos on photo bucket. I made a gps mount that hooks to the key .So it will turn off when I get out of the truck . A also mounted my ramp in the back . On the other side I mounted an AMMO box to hold the jack and motorcycle straps. http://s765.photobucket.com/albums/xx295/Darkhorse9623/

I was having some running issues .But I have most of that sorted. Now I am looking into sealing it up. I have a rear main leak .I will do that later. I got new engine and trans cooler lines.With the end connectors . I am going to seal up the oil filter adapter and change the oil. After I do the trans lines I will change the pan gasket and filter. Then flush the trans with a machine I have at work. I will also change the rear axle fluid . It wines but not to bad .Maybe synthetic gear lube will help. Don't know. But that is going to be my weekend project.
