Hey guys, I wanted to share will y'all what I am about to jump into. First some details of what might be the cause, simple a dirt bag mechanic, there are plenty of stories that has this sort of beginning. This is my wife GEN III that we bought brand spanking new, 0 miles back in 2001. It has...

On the GEN III I use Mobil 1 full synthetic (since it was 0 miles) and I change it once a year or every 15k miles. On 1990 LWB GEN I, I use Castrol 10w40 and change it every 7k miles On the 1988 SWB GEN I, I use Castrol 20w50 and change it every 7k miles. I always use the Mitsubishi oil filter...

I have been wanting to see a swap like this but more in detail like you are doing here. I knew of a guy who did a 6.2L radical swap but he kinda disappeared. I have also seen that the guys at Mohenic Garage, they are in Korea, do the same swap, the power and drivability will be awesome. Please...

What kind of axle are you using? Javy

I like the rims, what size, make etc... I want the same :drool: Javy

Hi guys, My 1990 LWB developed an oil leak that is driving me insane. Long story short, I had the heads out for head gasket work, a stud holding the cam had to be fixed so the machine shop dipped the heads after I had installed the cam plugs so I am thinking that might have shorten their life...

Dang it Toasty. Great minds think alike, I had that same idea and there was a crashed 2001 limited in GA with all the needed parts cheap but I do not have the time for another project. Enough with my turbo setup still in the process, I might even outsource it to a friend to finish it up. Javy

They look so awesome. Javy

nckwltn, Surely it is not funny when it happens, that sucker is SERIOUSLY LOUD. I am going to take it apart to play with it. The only thing that makes me nervous is the airbag, I hate to work around those things. Javy

That is looking nice. I had my 2.6L done by a recommended machine shop I Snellville GA and they did a great job. I did all the assembly, well still some more to do as it is going turbo but the last tool I need is a cherry picker to remove and install the engine. Javy

Had to change the valve cover gaskets on the 1990 LWB. Getting the aftermarket rubber gaskets to stay put in the valve cover channel is a royal pain in the :shakin:, I had to put some gasket shellac and it helped some. The things I hate the most when working on my 1990 LWB: valve cover gasket...

Guys, My wife's 2001 Gen III alarm is going crazy. Set the alarm with the remote or by locking the doors and wake up at 3:00am with the alarm going off screaming with a vengeance, man it is loud!!! What could be causing this tantrum? I hate to leave it unlocked at the mall or wherever we go...

Guys, I need to replace the A/T tranny mount on my 1990 LWB but it is nowhere to be found. Any pointers? Thanks, Javy

On my wife's 2001 I did upgrade the rear rotors to Brembo and Powerstop Carbon fiber/ ceramic pads and the breaking power has dramatically improved. Next comes Crown steel braided lines and new fluid. Javy

Guys, On the 1988, do you know the value of the three sub fusible links inside the engine compartment? they look like wires, two red and a green.? B of the above pics. Thanks, Javy
