SOURCE: 2001 chevy k1500 4wd front u joint failed

Changing Universal joints is an art. First, to make it easy, you need a pretty large vice. C-clamps can work if you are man enough to sqeeze them, sometimes a lot of pressure is involved and it gets hard to hold all parts in place. A vice is recommended, or a press of some sort.
You need a socket or pipe cap big enough to slide over the diameter of a single u-joint cap. Take the driveshaft and lay it in the jaws of the vice, so the U-joint is in the squeeze zone. take a socket smaller than the cup diameter and place it on one side. Take the large socket and place it on the other side of the u-joint. tighten vice. The small socket will push the U-joint through the yolk, and push the opposite cap into the empty space of the large socket. Once you bottom out, remove from the vice, and take off the cap you just pushed through. ( You may need a pair of vice grips to grab and twist the cap the rest of the way out.) Now, put giant socket over cap that is still in the yolk, place the small socket so it presses on the capless side of the U-joint Squeeze vice, so the existing cap gets pushed back through where it came from, but then keep squeezing until it is out of the yolk and pressed all the way to the large socket side. Once there, remove from vice, pull the now pressed out second cap out of the yolk hole. Now both caps are off, and you can just pull U-joint out of yolk.
Putting the new one back in is tricky too, you must remove both new caps and put capless U-joint back in hole of yolk, place a samall amount of fresh grease into caps to hold needle bearings in place. (if needle bearing falls out of place and you squeeze the U-joint back together, it will snap or bend bearing and U-join is no good, you must get another needle bearing to replace the damaged one, maybe salvage from old joint, but best to buy new joint if this happens, but if 11:00 pm and store is closed, you have to work next morning, then steal one from old joint) then slide both caps in from outside at same time, while twisting yolk squeeze in caps with vice. Once you bottom out on both sides, take small socket and press one side in until ring acan snap in, not too far, just enough to get ring in, then press in opposite side to same point. Put in rings clamps, then wiggle side to side for free movement. Then install back into truck.

SOURCE: how does the squirrel cage come off of the blower

Most units are one unit. Motor and squirel cage. A machine is used to press the cage onto shaft. Otherwise shaft bolt should have hexagontal nut end if it is removable.

Testimonial: "The new blower come,s without the cage.So I will have to somehow get it off the shaft without breaking it.I can,t buy the cage at an auto parts store."

SOURCE: 4wd wont work on 1999 chevy tracker but front drive shaft is turning?

The locking hub control system is not engaging properly. On the 99 Tracker this is a compressed air system that consists of an air pump (compressor), electrical wiring to power and control the air pump, and air hoses that lead to an actuator inside the front differential housing. If there is a leak in the system the PCM will run the air pump for 10 seconds and then shut off, and your propeller shaft can turn all day long, but the front axles will remain free floating. Turn on your key, not your engine, and engage four wheel high. Go listen near the passenger front bumper for the air compressor. If you hear it, then the compressor control and the compressor itself are likely fine. If it shuts off after 10 secs or so, and your 4WD light isn’t on, the PCM timed out the compressor out and shut the compressor off to protect it. You will have to find the leak and fix it. If you are lucky, it’s the air line leading to the front differential; and not the air line inside the differential housing, or the air bladder in the locking actuator, which also resides inside the font diff. If the compressor shuts off and the 4WD light is on (this means the PCM did not shut the air compressor off due to timeout, so the pressure switch read 5-7 psi and the pump shut itself off), you likely don’t have a leak, and something mechanical has the actuator hung up inside the front differential. Lastly if you don't hear the compressor run at all, you either have a faulty compressor, or some sort of wiring problem in that circuit.....it could be as simple as a blown fuse. Good luck.

Fuse for heater keeps blowing in my 1999 Chevy blazer. Any ideas?

This would suggest a bushing on the shaft of the blower motor is worn and causing the motor to have to pull too much current to run properly. You should replace the blower motor or recondition it so the squirrel cage or "fan" portion of the blower motor turns freely with no significant resistance.

1990 Mercedes 300E.How to Reaplase Blower Motor?

This is a 124 chassis model.The blower motor is under the cowling just in front of the windshield.You will need to remove the plastic pieces in front of the windshield and the wiper transmission.It will have squirrel cage fans at each end.If you are not experienced with removing these fans,use extreme care,because plastic gets brittle with heat and age.You can use a hairdryer to warm to plastic hub for easier removal.When tapping the motor shaft free of the cage,keep it evenly supported.Make sure not to drive the cages onto the new motor shaft too far.They will contact the housing.Replace broken fans-they vibrate badly.Blower motors with new fans installed are readily available for extra bucks.

Blower moter shakes whole van when turned on, a/c or not, what may be the issue

motor bearings or perhaps missing blade. Remove blower and inspect fan for irregularities. If irregular, replace fan. If fan is OK, try moving shaft back and forth in bearings. If bearings loose, replace motor. If you have more questions, please reply.

Honda Civic heater / blower noise.

you need to remove your glove box assy.(beleave only 2 screws and pivot clips) make sure its not anything from glove box that has slipped behind. once box is out uf way you can access easier the blower motor assy. it actually attaches into blower box from bottom side. when looking at you will find three screw/bolts fastening motor to casing. remove those and then slowly lower motor and fan cage(attached to motor shaft) out from housing. sometimes it takes a little convincing to come out but not real tough. once out you most likely find the object causing noise in fan cage or resting up on lip area of housing unit. once found install in reverse order. let me know if this helps or if we need to dig a little deeper into! good luck!
