Yes, Swepco is dino oil. Some still seem to be under the misconception that any synthetic is better than any dino. That is simply false. Synthetics provide...
I am 100% in agreement with Paul's info. He was one that steered me in the Swepco direction in a Vanagon many years ago. Transmissions and front diffs have it...
Folks, what is the intended function of the doughnut/shaft and bushing set up on the driveshaft? The presence of the doughnut setup must be to allow at least...
Nat, What you are describing is a slip yoke shaft. The donut does not offer any play in the lenght of the prop shaft. This is the number one reason I opt for a...
Ok, so if no longitudinal extension, then what about the torsional flexibility, or rather the loss of it? How would the diff/trans be affected if a solid...
I'm in central MA and I have an '87 Westy. My coolant temp gage no longer works. It stays off-scale at the bottom. It doesn't jump hard low when I turn it on,...
Hello all, I just got my new slip yoke driveshaft from Van-cafe. I'm crossing my fingers that it gets rid of my vibes! Is there a concensus on which way to...
As of 9pm tonight, we have over 100 cars that have arrived. The new obstacle course is perfect for syncros. There is every engine conversion you can imagine...
Folks, I'm about to dig into the front end and install springs, shocks, upper control arm bushes... What else in there should or could be re-newed if it's all...
The rubber donut is towards the rear, or the transmission. So I suppose the slip yoke is the same. If there is still vibrations, just change the rubber mounts...

I would like some comment on Bob's "hearsay" info that a 2wd with locker can essentially duplicate the performance of a syncro off road. I am assuming he...

Dave, ... As I understand it, only *after* there is more than a 6% rotational speed difference between front and rear wheels does front wheel drive occur. So...

It looks like you had a good time. You have a lot of nice pictures there. I was looking at the Overland site and was wondering why the registration was so...
Ken, I'm not quite clear what you are saying in your last paragraph when you state that a "selec table" full time 4WD vanagon is a "lot" more able. Are...
Ken, the VC is working all the time. Just jack up a front wheel and try rotating it and you will see. Compare it to a decoupled van or a 2wd van where...
