What Did You Do On Your Truck Today?

Finally found this thread!
Changed fan clutch AGAIN, water pump, thermostat, fan, and serpentine belt., and had carrier bearing done along with cutting out CAT and replacing with straight pipe. Seems like there is a LITTLE more response with it gone.
Glad I didn't try the carrier bearing myself. Shop had to get NAPA to press it off.

Didn't you have the wiring chopped up on the fan? Was that you?

Yes sir! It broke part of the fan off also so I replaced it as well. The metal shield was mangled badly as well so I just put a new one on.

Good job. Just make sure it's not flapping around under there.

Drove 40 miles with the flashers on. Now I have a bad injector. Ugh!

Well today I decided to see where my "bang/Clunk" was coming from in the front end. I was pretty sure it was the steering box, but had my neighbour crank the wheels back and forth while I watched and listened.

Sure enough the box torqued in one direction, then when direction and torque was applied in the opposite direction I got a bang. And you could see that the steering box had a lot of movement.

Pulled the battery, and IC tube on the DS and lifted up the splash guard. Found one bolt half out and loose. One other was just starting to loosen up. So I removed the two I could remove, cleaned them up and blue loctited them in place. The other two I backed out as for as I could, more blue loctite, and then tightened back up.

Cycled the steering again once everything was back together and all seems well.
