Hope it was a fun meetup yall! Glad to hear something worked out and you mostly avoided the twats lol

@PinkPig I attempted to rebuild my manual with a 5th gear, but I think mine was a special case and the gears recommended didn't fit. Lmk what you think of doing. Do you have a manual?

We'll be ready ;)

Damnit! I definitely owe you a beer. Unfortunately I can't make it to Napa from Seattle on that day. How long are you stateside?

Don't worry 99% of manual owners never even think about doing the work themselves, so you're miles ahead :P

Just a follow up here; looks like this does not work for my chassis (manufactured 1993.07.01). The Bearing ID is too small and I was not able to find a generic bearing that would fit, likely because the bearing would need a 30 ID and 33 OD, which is just a 3 mm diameter needles, which is really...

Whelp I tried this upgrade, but the needle bearing for the 33/16 set doesn't fit my main shaft :/ It's just 1 or 2 mm too small comparing the ID of the needle bearing to the shaft diameter. Sorry to awaken and old thread, but thought I'd share! @Growlerbearnz any ideas? I'm wondering if I...

I have seen nomadic's kit, looks legit, and easy to install, but I am not sure if it requires removal of the AC or not, I don't think so. Message them on IG or Facebook ( i think?) to ask about it. You can have them install if you are local, or install yourself which will take some time and some...

Following up on this: my rear end is toast so I'm looking to get a full rear axle. The sound has gotten significantly worse and there's now a loud rattle when coasting that I hear when driving above 50mph next to a wall so the sound reflects back well. Any thoughts on what a decent price is for...

Yes, it was sitting right next to it, you can actually see a corner of the nut in the picture. Lucky me...

Awesome! I just picked up the 18" and 20" and they work great! A little pricey, but high quality!

Hahaha... Well I definitely had rocker clearance issues. Anyone notice anything missing here? All of the rockers clearances were over spec. It solved my sound issue, and it runs smoother and I bet my fuel mileage will get better!

I should check my rocker clearances as I have not! I'll do that asap. I am glad to hear your folks feedback, I know this is an odd one. It does seem like something with the valves is off and it is a fairly thumpy intake noise. I do notice that my fuel economy isn't as good as some other vans...

Do we have a part number foe these rain-x wipers? LHD or RHD? I could just to a local autoparts and find the correct attachment style i guess, but figured I'd ask if there was one.

I have an odd *sound* problem, and am curious if anyone has heard a similar noise before. I have a video with audio, but I'll give context first. After installing a front mounted intercooler setup on my 93' 5MT I noticed that above 2000rpm (sometimes less so when full boost and more so when...
