    I'm talking about rotating the wheels forward by hand stopping and then going backwards. How much slop can there be, between switching directions? Thanks for the advice. What do you recommend for a 3.42 geared rear differential when this one gives it up?

    Changed the fluid last night. There was quite a bit of very fine steel on the magnet. No big pieces anywhere. So fine, I just about couldn't feel them with my fingers. How much forward and back slop can there be in the wheels? What do I have for a rear end? The rear end did not lock up...

    It's possible. I was very busy a few years ago and had the rear end replaced with a used unit out of a junk yard. I wish I would have waited and done the work myself, but I was in a bind for time. I would have swapped in a rear with 3.42 gears and went ahead and swapped the front...

    I would have to change both differentials if I changed one. I could change one or the other and leave the front drive shaft off til they were both the same. Neither issue was noticed til we were turning the axle by hand. There was a rumbling from the back when brakes were applied. The drivers...

    Help! Heater blower shutting off.

    The connection is a known weak spot. More GM undersized wires. This connection frequently suffers from meltdown. Especially on older motors that are pulling a bit more juice than they used to. Might want to look into swapping the blower motor. I'd try to find a old stock AC Delco or check...
