    Rear Hatch Slam Latch

    99 XLT rear hatch needs to be slammed to get the door ajar light to go out. I found on the right side there is a plastic sleeve missing on the part the latch grabs. The left side is still there, but getting bad. I do not see how to replace these. I am thinking, not good, remove the left side to...

    Valve Body seals and gaskets

    New to this transmission repair. Had reverse but drive was taking a long time to engage. Then drive was lost after I used passing gear. Stopped at a store and leaving it would not go into drive at all. Kept backing around in the parking lot, trying everything. Tried lower gears, taking it out...

    Door open, no dome lights

    Is there a switch inside each door somewhere? I replaced one rear door handle and found no switch attached. Spraying a lube in the handle slots doesn't seem to go on anything. I am going to trace all the wires in the door and find something. Thanks for the thread link.

    Wiring harness swap

    Thanks for that. I don't like leaving things unhooked. Because I have 4 is this some special pollution equiptment or an option for having 2 pipes running into the muffler? I noticed the ones in the junk yard only having 1 pipe going into the muffler.
