Another bad diff? Well at least I have one out now that I can fully tear apart and rebuild. Thanks again!

I thought that when I installed a new differential it would fix the clunk I hear when pushing upward on the drive shaft, but it didn't. The clunk only happens when I push on the halfshaft coming from the trans, not when I push on the half shaft leading to the diff. New center bearing, everything...

Mine leaks right in the center of the windshield but doesn't with the soft top. It never ends lol

I heard that you can adjust the hardtop to seat better at the front windshield? I don't know how to do it and can't find any guides on it. Also I can't really find where on the latches to adjust them. The rubber was replaced 3 years ago according to the guy I bought it from and it did not leak...

Thank you, and @pgunter ! Guess the work is not over yet lol.

I replaced a ton of stuff. Giubo, center support bearing, transmission mounts, engine mounts, roll/sway bar bushings, subframe bushings, differential bushing, trailing arms, yet I am still getting a clunking sound while shifting gears unless I rev match perfectly. I noticed after I reinstalled...

Hey guys, some more info. The leak is coming from the water pump. I had the car running and saw the water pump pulley moving back and forth. It has play when the car is off also, as if the pulley is not fastened down. I believe the water pump pulley/mechanical fan pulley play has caused the...

Thanks guys, I got up under the car and see that I'm leaking coolant from the main crank pulley. I know its not coming from there, but I do think its the waterpump that's just above it that's causing me to lose coolant. Is there any other explanation to what could be leaking aside from the water...

How long would it take to replace the water pump? Is it invasive?

Drove it down to the beach and back today (almost 9 hours of constant driving on the interstate at 3.5k rpms) and noticed on my return trip it started to overheat. It would go up, then down, then up. It would raise as the rpms went up, and cool down when idle or less than 2k rpms. It only just...

Ehh, I may do just that if its really not worth the hassle.

Is the swap from a 2.5l M52 to the S52 worth it? I hear it's plug and play and that you'll need a new power steering hoses and such, but the mounts, harness, sensors etc. Are all the same. Will need a new ECU and have it flashed and EWS delete I think. My goal is to gain more power, more OOMF...

I checked the subframe mount/diff mounting bracket and welds to make sure they were not broken while I was under the car. Everything is still good but I believe I will still be getting the trunk reinforced to keep it from happening in the future!

So after ordering the diff bushing, I thought "why stop there?" And proceeded to order the subframe bushings, flex disc, center support bearing, trailing arm bushings and trans mount bushings. Now, while all of this is being done, what else do you suggest I replace/take a look at?

Thanks everyone! I'll be replacing it ASAP!

First car, first problem. Does this bushing look done? I also checked the weld points in the trunk, the bracket the diff is mounted to, and the diff case for cracks or breaks in weld/spot welds failing. All welds are fine and solid, but this bushing looks like dog dook. I cant move the diff by...

Looking for a hard top close to South Carolina. Willing to drive to GA or NC to meet up.
