Hi all, I recently bought a KYB strut kit from rock auto (gland nuts, bearings, bump stop, dust boots, and strut inserts). I installed everything according to the directions, but no matter how hard I tightened the top strut nut, I still get a clicking noise over bumps.

I searched the Internet and ...

Taking out the plexiglass on the instrument cluster for cleaning or replacement

First of all, I hope that others can learn from my mistakes I have made after replacing my odometer gear, capacitors, and IC chip for cruise in my odometer cluster housing. After successfully getting it back to working order, I wanted to take it a step further and clean that plexiglass on the inside ...

Re: clutch options for 90 240

93Regina, Thank you for the wealth of knowledge! It has been so confusing wading through the sea of clutches and manufacturers out there. After looking through all of your links provided, I bought a Sachs OEM clutch based on your recommendation. I can now rest easier and be reassured that the clutch ...
