So I didnt read anything above this post yet today.. but I came in to read whatever the last post was. I saw this. I then promptly said to myself... "Wait... What did you do to your OBS GMT400 TODAY? Straight Axle swap?? In one day?! Wow.."

Then I read the rest and realized you were just clarifying. hah. And here I thought you were doing work of epic proportions today Don.

X2 but no broken parts just hate ifs and can't find dana 60s here... might have to settle with a crappy dana 44... really want king pin and will do high steer eitherway. Don its probably easy for yoy to find the parts and it shouldn't be hard just time consuming

Sas could be done in a day if yoy have proper tools and no setbacks which is never the case. I plan to take my time and do it in a week if everything goes to plan and have all proper tools

Went out to it yesterday and found two flat left tires. Apparently happened Sunday according to a neighbor the he saw them low early evening. Had roadside come by and put some air in them. They held it so I drove a mile to a used tire shop to get them replaced with other used. Just in case being as how they appear to have physical damage to them in the form or small cuts or minor tread damage on the out edge.

Got the second engine replacement pulley in the mail for the belt tensioner as well as the brake pedal switch.

Knees still in to bad of shape to get out there and get some work done on it so I will try again sunday to get that stuff and headers/cats done. Think I have the flu or something. Achy joints, sneezing, sniffles and stuff.

Put in a new FPR today and got rid of all my codes p0172, p0175 and p0300

As you can see in the pic right below the FPR the manifold is spotless clean and everywhere else is dirty. Definitely the FPR is bad when you see it that clean below it.

but... now I think i have a small vacuum leak. I hear a whistle/whine sound that gets real loud but stops when i hit the throttle and comes back when i let off it.

So i gotta recheck things tomorrow. I hope I didn't crack the plenum because I couldnt press it over the fuel spider because of the new gasket. So I put 2 bolts in the plenum and tightened them slowly to press down on the gasket ?I heard a noise but I'm pretty sure it was the gasket squeezing.

Gonna spray carb cleaner around the plenum and other areas and see what happens.


It starts up no problem and no more odor or check engine lights and drives very good!

What kind of intake do you have? Because the whistling might be air swirling past the throttle plate.

Filled the tank for the 2nd time since buying it, allowing me to calculate the MPG. Got 15.11 mpg, which was probably about 60-70% "city" driving (i.e., local, non-freeway runs). I'm pretty happy with that. I'm betting I could get a full 18 mpg if it was all freeway driving.

Yanked the stock exhaust manifolds and installed long tube headers.
