2006-2007 Sprinter Rear Sway Bar Bushings & Mounts

Hello everyone, Had a customer come in and needed some rear sway bar/stabilizer bushings and mounts because his mounts snapped. The mounts looked aftermarket, and those mounts snapping? Never seen that. The metal looked weak, and I COULD NOT FIND ANYTHING for it. Called Dodge and they told me the vin is a 2006 AND that it doesn't come with a rear sway bar. (2007 body 2006 chassis maybe) The bushings are a little over 31mm inside diameter and I have NO idea how to help this man. He bought... 2006-2007 Sprinter Rear Sway Bar Bushings & Mounts

Engine Swap Troubles 4.7l 05

Decided to engine swap my 05 4.7l 1500 4x4 pickup recently since the original motor has been suffering from a cracked head. Bought a 120k mile motor off of car part planet. When it came we noticed it cane out of a jeep. Had a shoterned water pump fan and diffrent oil dip stick. We swapped over all of our accessories and dropped in the motor smoothly. Not one plug didn't match up. We decided to use the throttle body and injectors that came with the motor since they had 50k less miles than the... Engine Swap Troubles 4.7l 05

help with insturment lights

A few months ago wife had a new stereo receiver installed in her van and ever since, the battery will die if the vehicle is not driven in about 36 to 48 hours. Have taken it back to the shop several times, first they blamed the battery then the alternator, then the wheelchair ramp for my daughter. Been frustrated with this for a while. The other night I happened to notice that there are a few lights that will not turn off no matter how long it has been. Notably the headlight knob, the... help with insturment lights

Have AC: Its just not blowing into the Cab atht much

Redid my 318 LA V8 recently and when I installed the new AC compressor, the refrigerant was working fine: making tons of condensation on the AC lines. The compressor and clutch were working just fine. But.........inside the cab, the temp of the air eventually got there but it didn't blow with much power at all. The blower and fan "sound" like always on our 88, but just not much coming into cab. Thanks

Engine Block Coolant Plug Problems

I removed the engine block coolant plugs on my 1987 D150 318. The plug threads were pretty chewed up, and now I can't get them to thread back in! I'm plugless and stuck. I've heard they're 1/4" NPT pipe fittings. I bought new ones and they barely thread half way in. I think I need to tap the threads, but don't know if I can use an SAE tap. Can anyone help so I can get this truck running again? Thanks!
