Re: Hi From Ontario Canada
I have had alot of safari's in the years.........but i just bought a 99 for kicking around in. I could not justify 40K for a new(savana) one LOL. So i found this 99 AWD for 1000.00. Body is pretty good on it but it had a shudder with the AWD......so after reading your fourm i changed the tc oil today. GM was closed so i put some royal purple ATF in it until i can get the Auto trak II from gm you guys recomend. Took it for a drive after the change and shudder is gone. Thanks to you guys and your info.astrozam wrote:Welcome aboard the good ship ASV Tom, glad to hear you have found the site useful already.
