    Welcome Red! Your VX reputation precedes you as several of my friends have told me about the mystery Ebony VX they have seen tooling around southern Baldwin County AL. Look forward to seeing your ride sometime! If you see a Kaiser Silver VX down here, that's definitely me.

    The last four digits in our VINs are NOT unique. There's a few characters in the middle of the VIN that correspond to year of manufacture I believe.

    [QUOTE=sleveritt;204575]Be careful what you wish for. After looking up a previous owner of my 1999 Ironman that was registered here, I was dismayed to see he drove almost 9 mos. with a leaking intake gasket. Several folks mentioned it to him, but he was always content to throw more "carb clehaner" in the tank and take it back to his "mechanic". Same problem month after month. Just never would listen to the knowledge of the group.

    Though this was before the shop manual was made available for downloading to all.

    Oh well, the 5.3L CSB is already mounted, so I don't have to worry about those MIL errors popping up every couple of months and costing a couple hundred it time to make it go off.[/QUOTE

    Hey Sam. Chris in Fort Myers. How are you marrying a Chevy engine to the isuzu trans? I'm interested in knowing.
    I got the rear end you shipped. Thank you...but guess what. On the advice of 3 seperate mechanics i did this and it did not fix my rattle/grind. Now I know that those who read this will think I'm not so smart but I was under that VX a dozen times yanking on U-joints and so forth trying to nail it down. Last night I crawled underneath again and bingo - I found some play this time in the front U joint of the rear driveshaft. I also can get instability that I can feel and hear when I grab the north and south halves of the drive shaft and yank it around where it telescopes (from the splines). So I went up to the auto parts store and got a greasegun and greased the heck out of that joint and the drive shaft. Today the rattle is less audible but there. I think I found the problem. New universal soon. Do any readers have any other thoughts other than looking to the bearings in the transfer case.????

    For those who would comment on my rattle grind. It resonates at its worst when backing off the excellerator at about 40 -45 MPH. When there is neutral load on the drive train. I pulled the hub locks off last week to make the front free wheel. It had no effect. Mechanics were convinced it was a differential problem or a bearing in the rear axle. One thought it could be in the transfer case. I always thought it behaves womewhat like a bad U joint but could never prove it by feeling for play or slack in the joints. Well any thoughts are appreciated. Especially if anyones knows of common reasons that are unique to the VX.

    You can use a Fiero adapter but you would still need a way to control the 4L30E, I think he is changing transmissions too as the 4L30E wouldn't last long behind a V8. I plan on doing a similar swap down the line and I'm gonna use the Isuzu MUA5 manual from a 2.8/3.1 V6 truck
