Quick question. what does de-screening do for it and polishing do for it?

I kind of had this same problem last year with the buttons sticking. I popped out the control panel and cleaned the contacts and buttons with contact cleaner and have not had a problem since.

Almost forgot. This did fix my tranny burping problem but for insurance I also changed out the tranny fluid.

After trying to flush it out twice I gave up and just changed the radiator and hose and thermostat out. Radiator new was only $129. I figured by the time I took it into the shop for them to flush I was money ahead. It only took me an hou tto change out.

Thanks for all the great input guys. I will start with the ball joints this weekend and work my way around from there.

Were would you guys sugest to start steering / front end repairs? It just feels sloppy and loose lately. Tires are good 35psi and full tread. 2002 crew.

Worked like a champ on my 02. Took longer to clean out the glove box than make the fix!

I needed something to do this weekend anyhow!
Thanks guys.

I flushed the system out 3 times, then changed out the radiator. I fully expect to end up changing the heater core at some point. The indication (besides visual) that this was happening was my tranny would vent a small amount of fluid at the end of a 25 mile ride home when it was hot out. Been divin...

I saw an old post about what happens to old DEX in your radiator so I thought I would post this pic of my radiator before I changed it out this weekend.

Thanks for the reply Bill: I am hoping the problem is not that bad. Yet! I bought the ruck 2 years ago from a relative with 75,000 on it and it has been a great truck. Have 91,000 on it now and it is my daily driver. I am hoping by changing out all fluids (which I should have done when I first got i...

Positive it is for the trans but guess while I'm under there the transfer case fluid should get changed out also. Just did a new diff seal and fluid last week, the seal blew out and what looked like chocolate milk was on my garage floor also relocated the diff vent tube. New fuel pump last month, 90...

Thanks for the quick reply. Fluid level is good but while looking around today noticed that my radiator hasn't been flushed in what looks like since new. I'm wondering if that my be also causing the tranny to overheat. Has been 90+ temps here in Minnesota for the past month. Thinking flush and refil...

New user here. great site.
I noticed A small drip from what I think is a vent tube on top of the transmission on the drivers side. any ideas of what may be causing this?
