My immediate diagnosis was that the fluid was low and it came out black. Ya, I know that means burnt but it gets worse. The pan and magnet was full of fine gray shaving dust and I know the transmission is dirty inside. I know its a long shot but I believe I will get it at least functioning again when I get it cleaned out. I'll change the fluid a couple of times or flush the trans fluid after I get more improved. I plan to put the Axiom on blocks and run the trans for a bit in 4x4 before I flush the fluid as well. Last but not least, I hear a clanking noise for a moment when I'm at 1500 rpm in first gear.

P0155 has nothing to do with the AC. That's an o2 sensor heating element code. The AC should be checked by a pro. Lot's of things can cause a compressor to not engage. Low freon. Blown fuse. Bad dash controller. All need to be diagnosed. A pro will get you there faster and cheaper than guessing.

Hi Robb,. I have enjoyed your videos of work you have done on Shrek, and am in the process right now of putting the Old Man Emu (OME) springs, part #2929, for a 1.5-2" lift, and matching shocks (Old Man Emu "Nitro-Charger" shocks, Part # 60074). I bought them from Desert Rat, in New Mexico or Arizona - somewhere down there in Road Runner country. Right now, I am stopped because I don't have a spring compressor, and think I will have to un-do the sway-bar links to get it to drop a little more and let me shove the new, longer coils in, "tight" coils on top. I'm operating with pretty basic tools, open/box combination wrenches, with pipes for cheater-bars and lots of WD40 to tell the old shock-post threads to cut that "binding" shit out. I have no hoist or anything fancy, just using a little 8-ton hydraulic jack to get the ass end of the Trooper up in the air, then holding it up there with stacked concrete pier blocks under the frame at each trailing arm front mount. Seems pretty steady and safe. Front tires have a brick in front and back so it won't just roll the f--- away. Dirt (gravel) work area. Being an old retired fart, I am going slowly on this ... because I can. It's a "Gee! I've never DONE this before" job, so I am being patient, and making sure I know what others have dealt with. Thanks for sharing YOUR experiences. I appreciate it. Now to get back out there before the Seattle area rain starts up. Mother Nature is tricking us here with a little sun and breezes, into getting some outdoors stuff going on, so she can laugh at us and bring on the rain. Typical... Again, thanks.

It was a bitch pounding thw top bushing into the shock, but I heated thw bushing in boiling water to soften it, then pounded the bitch in. Next, I looked at the fit with the top bolt, and it had a lot of slop! WTF, over?

I never did. If you need something specific let me know and I'll get them for you.
What size wheels and tires are you running? Lookin good!
Thanks. 16 inch rims. 285/75-16 tires.
My 95 trooper did the same thing when it had 115000. I started using 5w 30 Mobil 1 … the noise went away. I sold it with 348000 to grind who drove it until he sold it to grind. Never rebuilt motor or transmission.
Have you had problems for being without the roof trim?
No and I live in Central Florida where it rains like a monsoon daily.
@@robbo6460 great, thank you! Greetings from Honduras
Hello, I bought the 60031 front shock, but why the shocks is shorter than the original?
Good work. I really love Trooper
Great video, thanks for doing this. Have a 98 Trooper. I've done the coils, so the rear is squared away ... torsion bars are next. My question is, what lift (floor jack/lift) are you using? That was pretty slick, I'm out here with floor jacks trying to lift my trooper one corner at a time ... picking the entire truck up would be sweet. Thanks!
Hey thanks. That was a car lot I owned. I put in a midrise pit lift. Boy I miss it.
I'm currently working on on one that was brought to me the cam is probably off a tooth or 2 on the passenger side it backfires out the intake think that's my problem and doesn't start
Should be pretty easy to check if it's in time.
@@robbo6460 yea the passenger cam is off to much
Rob Been watching you channel been through troopers a 02 and a 99 .. the 99s a 4x4 runs good but the 4l30e is starting to slip a little at the stoplights looking for a tacoma .. not going to keep the trooper .... can you use>>>????
Hey. Believe it or not I'm thinking of selling Shrek myself. I feel like he deserves to be used and I'm not wheeling anymore. Thanks for offering. If your on Facebook join the Trooper Mafia and Trader. Someone on there will want it for sure.
Hi Trooper lovers…. I need some advice on my 98 SLX basically a trooper with leather. My AC seems to be constantly on the fritz. I had the the complete system rebuilt like new. Now after the winter it seems to not in gaged the AC. I’m lost … what shall I do now ? I did get a PO155 read out .. could this be the problem.
P0155 has nothing to do with the AC. That's an o2 sensor heating element code. The AC should be checked by a pro. Lot's of things can cause a compressor to not engage. Low freon. Blown fuse. Bad dash controller. All need to be diagnosed. A pro will get you there faster and cheaper than guessing.
Did you have to tune it for the Apollo?
No I didn't. I probably could because Shrek gets 10-11mpg maximum. Which sucks with 4 dollar gas
Great video do you know what size bolts go into the frame
I believe M6 x 1.25
P0101
P0101 is a Mass Air Flow Sensor fault. It's the Sensor next to the air cleaner. I've never ever had a single time where cleaning it worked. Replace it. It's a fast and simple repair.
👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼
Thank you, I couldn't remember if it was 100 degrees or lower, hope you're doing good. I'm one step closer to opening my pest control company, too!
During this time do you perform body lift or just suspension lift?
Suspension lift. I did not do any body lift.
@@robbo6460 thank you
Does my 1999 Isuzu Rodeo six-cylinder only have a radiator or does it have a transmission cooler as well?
Look under the vehicle and up at the bottom of the radiator. If you have 2 smaller lines coming off the bottom and heading back towards the bell housing then you do. If not then you don't.
@@robbo6460 gotcha! Very easy. Changed the thermostat and day later saw that dreaded milky substance in the coolant but I think it's actually stop leak and not oil. I never added stop leak but the radiator is OLD and I now see a trans light when starting it but then it goes off. Love the Rodeo!
I love watching your videos, even though I don't have an Isuzu yet (considering '98 Rodeo 4WD) you remind me of the fun uncle helping mod a car over the summer drinking beer and smoking Winstons telling me what to do next.
Sounds about right lol
Where did you run the light bar wire that on the roof?
Down the side of the windshield molding and under the cowl into the engine bay.
Gracias muy buen video
Thanks for posting! These vehicles are becoming old and there are less of them on the road. It's hard to find information and parts but it's a fun and very capable little Trooper!
I agree. I haven't made a video in a while and I'm due. I have a few projects on Shrek but no time.

If there is no dip stick then it's the same procedure.
Hi Robb,. I have enjoyed your videos of work you have done on Shrek, and am in the process right now of putting the Old Man Emu (OME) springs, part #2929, for a 1.5-2" lift, and matching shocks (Old Man Emu "Nitro-Charger" shocks, Part # 60074). I bought them from Desert Rat, in New Mexico or Arizona - somewhere down there in Road Runner country. Right now, I am stopped because I don't have a spring compressor, and think I will have to un-do the sway-bar links to get it to drop a little more and let me shove the new, longer coils in, "tight" coils on top. I'm operating with pretty basic tools, open/box combination wrenches, with pipes for cheater-bars and lots of WD40 to tell the old shock-post threads to cut that "binding" shit out. I have no hoist or anything fancy, just using a little 8-ton hydraulic jack to get the ass end of the Trooper up in the air, then holding it up there with stacked concrete pier blocks under the frame at each trailing arm front mount. Seems pretty steady and safe. Front tires have a brick in front and back so it won't just roll the f--- away. Dirt (gravel) work area. Being an old retired fart, I am going slowly on this ... because I can. It's a "Gee! I've never DONE this before" job, so I am being patient, and making sure I know what others have dealt with. Thanks for sharing YOUR experiences. I appreciate it. Now to get back out there before the Seattle area rain starts up. Mother Nature is tricking us here with a little sun and breezes, into getting some outdoors stuff going on, so she can laugh at us and bring on the rain. Typical... Again, thanks.
Thanks for the compliments. There should be no need to comress the spring if you lift by the pumpkin and have the shock out. I used mine cause I have them. Harbor Freight sells them cheap if you find you can't force them in. Good luck
@@robbo6460 Update: i used a bottle jack between the axle and frame to push the axle down about one inch. That is what my Trooper needed to slip the new spring in with no sweat. I gradually let the pressure out of thw little bottle jack as I checked the top of thw spring to make sure it stayed in position, then started looking at the OME 60074 shock. It was a bitch pounding thw top bushing into the shock, but I heated thw bushing in boiling water to soften it, then pounded the bitch in. Next, I looked at the fit with the top bolt, and it had a lot of slop! WTF, over? I am in contact with ARB about why they didn't send me a sleeve to fit between the 19-20mm ID of the rubber bushing and the 14mm diameter of the non-threaded part of the bolt. If I had a machine shop I would just make a f-ing sleeve and move on. But I don't. (I have been a machinist in my many lives) So, I am stopped for now, while the clouds spit rain on me from time to time, and I put my "driveway mechanic" tools away for now, until I figure out a sleeve for the bushing and bolt.
@@logmeindangit I'm sorry you having issues. I didn't have the same issue. My bushings fit the bolts. Boy that really sucks.
@@robbo6460 I'm on Facebook's Trooper Mafia site, and no-one there ever mentioned having bushing slop with the bolt on 2nd gen updates.
@@logmeindangit I'm on the mafia group too. Best group period. Idk if you got the wrong bushings. I suppose you can make a sleeve or see if they have other bushings available?
