why is it so damned difficult to shift into 1st gear? Nine times outta ten pulling down on the shifter won't even get into low gear. Did GM do this on purpose and what options can eliminate this?
I located an oem in Alabama few months ago and cable has been installed. I've tried making adjustments both at the shifter and the linkage on transmission. Very frustrating!

Been so long I don't remember if I asked before or not? If anyone has their GN somewhat dismantled or whatever, I'd like to know the length of wiring for the two ecm splice connectors to the cap protector on the firewall. Last year I painstakingly wired new splices from Caspers but left way too much wire to the new splices. Before I go trimming away, am hoping someone can give me the correct length. Thank you and God bless.  walt

looking for new or good used side moldings for '87 GN attaches to part of fender, door and part of quarter panel. Need both sides or six pieces. They are solid black and 1/2" wide at the base and have a slightly elevated center. Also looking for the original door edge guards.

If I can get enough heaters for my garage, I'm going to attempt to install the new gnx mounts. From what i read before, there are two mount sized holes in the cross member frame above the diff? If I can loosen the bolts for both sides #'s 6 and 7 body mounts will there be enough room to get the mounts in place?
Mucho gracious,
walt

Just removed the diff cover to begin the changeover. As I mentioned before, I've done this to my other GN but it does not have lim. slip. Also, I did this about 7 years ago and I must be growing cobwebs in the grey matter. I remember removing the carrier case bolt and sliding out the carrier pin which made getting to the clips a lot easier. The only difference I can see is now I think I need to remove the double "S" shaped tension band to get to the "C" clips. With removal of the large pin I was able to have someone push in slightly on the axles to get to the C clips. Before I go wild on this one I need some advice as to the correct procedure.
Thanks,
Walt

Hello, hello, and hello. Need to change the rear seals and brgs. to '87 GN. This one has limited slip diff. My ? is; I've done it before with a standard regular differential and familair with what needs done, but, with the posi, is the procedure and removal of the hold pin the same to remove the axles? Many thanks.

Been six long months but finally got my new engine. The engine is held in place by the motor mounts only at present. I've got the job of finishing assembly to the long block. I had the transmission rebuilt several months ago and the shop advised I get the motor in and just have it idle and then the shop will install the trans and make all adjustments to the TV cable.
Is it safe to do it this way or should the trans be bolted in place before I attempt to start the engine?

Lord, after four months down in BShop, things are popping up. Latest is, my cooling fan will not run when reaches temp point. First, would like to check if fan is operable. Anyone know which wire on the connector near resistor to feed a 12 volt wire to? How to check if resistor is bad? Does the coolant temp sensor command the fan to run? Just replace the two relays on the fender, Caspers has a 2 pack for about 20.00.
Thanks in advance for any help.

Does anyone have the correct measurements as to positioning the badges on the fenders and the trunk deck? I.E.: distance from the fender crease and distance from the door? That would be good reference as to where to place the Grand National badge and the Intercooled goes just below in line with the GN emblem.
I think the trunk lid emblem is placed a certain distance from the left side and down from the spoiler.

I was able to make repairs to my OEM '87 grill, and now considering to sell the new aftermarket grill I bought June 13th. Grill has been installed and car is still in body shop. Supposed to get car back in a few days. Kirban is selling theirs for 309.00 plus tax and shipping. I paid total of 360.35 and would be willing to accept 225.00 plus shipping. Package would be on the large side but pretty light.
WHY CAN WE "NOT" UPLOAD ANY FILES OR PHOTOS???

The body shop that installed my new GM fillers could NOT get them to fit right. They are way too tight where the fillers go between the taillights. Right now, the fillers are slightly kinked on the ends mostly at the left and right sides of the tail light area. Is it possible to use a heat gun and bend the ends of the tail lights just enough to eliminate the problem? Not sure if this may be part of the problem, the date stamp on the tail lights is 1984 and my GN is an '87.
Thanks,
Walt
