I had the clunk on my old 110 and it turned out the A-frame ball joint was so worn it was almost able to pop out of the socket. Replacing it completely eliminated the clunk.

Does it make it look completely like new?

Ha, thanks for being willing to spend my money, lol.. I’m already broke on this project!

Anyone know if it’s possible to age new galvanizing somehow? I had to buy one piece of new corner trim but all of the rest of the galvanizing is already aged and I would like it to match.

Haha, yes sir John how could I forget the 101? Love that truck! Will miss seeing you and the little red 90 this year, hopefully there will be a next..

Always love the painted lug nuts...:eek:

should I or shouldn't I? Resurrecting this thread since I have another 300Tdi sitting on the garage floor about to be installed. The previous owner of the engine says the rear seal wasn't leaking. My better judgement says to replace it anyway since it is easy to access right now, but at the...
