@@MikeVandreumel thank ya!! Me too

@@MNMoparMinivan u going to keep the van so much work put into it

@MikeVandreumel yep! This rustbucket is a a keeper

@@JonFlyy wow! That's super cool. Thanks for watching!!

@briandjordjevic9969 good deal!!! Alternators are not cheap! Just glad I had the new one from the 94 I parted out.

@@MNMoparMinivan yeah I was surprised it worked. He had amnesia oil leak that made the alternator all oily. Nice work as always bro! 😎 keeping them alive

@@briandjordjevic9969 yeah blown power steering pump got this one

@michaelwyatt8030 yeah it was a process but it's all new parts now.

@@MNMoparMinivan yup all new parts now you would not sell that van would you

@michaelwyatt8030 this one 😅absolutely not

@@MNMoparMinivan I thought that was your baby

@@thestuffz glad to hear! Thank ya for watching. How's the turbo van?

@@MNMoparMinivan lol still on the trailer. Just family health stuff atm and days off have been traveling. Trying to plan how to tackle the engine to see if it is worth doing anything to. Pulley is off the cam, and all the accessories are undone and laying to the side. Crank pulley is still on and the timing belt is on that still. Thinking pull valve cover off first and look. Possibly get a cheap scope and pull plugs. Not sure what all I wanna do to it atm. Would love to just be able to drive it as is for the time being.

@@thestuffz well I don't think it's going to drive with cam pulley off!! 🤣

@@MNMoparMinivan lol no no. I mean to driving condition 🤣

@@thestuffz just messing with ya lol

@TFD1982 i drink too much mountain dew lmao. You got your wish with the 2 hour video haha! Enjoy the rest (:

@@MNMoparMinivan I’m already over the hour mark doesn’t really feel that long when you got nothing to do haha!!glade you were able to get that control arm bolt out I’m dreading the day I have to do mine it looks like it fcking SUCKS.

@@TFD1982 it did suck. But my van is particularly rusty.

@@MNMoparMinivan ohh man yours is much cleaner then my 94 mine having the lower plastic cladding it’s completely gone in the rear for the rockers the rear heater lines even have a repair since they rotted out now mine however doesn’t have any floor rot but for 143k you’d really think my van has well over 200k I’m keeping it off the roads during the winter can’t stand to have more salt damage to it I love this van and do plan to get the rockers done you can find replacements but my welder is out of gas and that’s why my trans am hasn’t had more metal work done in 4 years. It’s all in time I’ll get to it my aunts 95 caravan my my town and country are going nowhere I’ll be working towards fixing the 95 after I sell the 96 of corse but I plan to at a minimum drive the 96 for a year or the value goes up again.

@@TFD1982 looks can be deceiving... this one has quite a bit of filler in it.

@Compact-Disc_700mb so the seal on the bearing hub was fine. I accidentally left the metal dust cover that goes on the axle side with the seal... when you get axles the dust cover is already on them. So I had doubled up the dust covers

@@MNMoparMinivan Oh ok, that makes sense now thanks! I do not know why that confused me so much.

@@Compact-Disc_700mb I can't imagine I explained it correctly in the video either lmao

@@michaeljackson8510 i think I pulled some decent looking ones at a yard and buffed them with a nulens polish kit. Then hit with a clearcoat spray

@michaeljackson8510 it's called a strut rod bushing. Rock Auto has the kit for like $10 includes both sides. Getting the old one out sucks because it's a 1 piece bushing where the new ones are 2 piece.

@@MNMoparMinivan man, u have been such a big help. Thank you.

@@michaeljackson8510 glad I could!! Keep that van on the road (:
