    AW4 Solenoid Replacement

    Evening all, 96 Classic 4wd with 249k on original drivetrain. Recently drove 500 mi round trip and lost 1st, 4th, and OD on the way home. NAXJA search seemed to agree with solenoids so I bought 3 (global transmission kit came with gasket and filter) and replaced them. Worked great, runs great...

    Different brake pedal feel after booster replace

    2 weeks ago the brake booster failed on my 96 classic 4wd (no ABS 4.0 247k miles) while commuting home on I-4. Fortunately the stop and go traffic allowed me to feel the brake performance diminishing and hear the whistling get louder. I was able to exit and take surface roads/handbrake the last...

    Push loc lower tranny line-just push on?

    Stupid question ..I know. It came off OK using the Lisle tool but man..it does not want to push back on! Radiator fitting appears to be identical in size and length to the old one. Are the little yellow tabs supposed to slide over the rib about an inch back?

    Water pump/radiator install questions

    :NAXJA: 96 Classic 4.0/ AW4/ NP231 Stock. Water pump: Bought the dorman inlet tube which is an exact replica of original as far as I can tell. It came with thread sealer already applied. I installed the tube to line up with the heater hose and stopped when I didn't think I could get another full...

    Timing set brand matter?

    While I have the radiator and pump out figured I"d do the timing set. Will any rock auto brand do? Cloyes, Melling, Sealed Power? Thanks
