I heard you could put rope down the cylinder and top it out to hold the valves up.

Ive heard of putting rope in from the spark plug hole then raise the piston up to tdc that way if you lose air you wont lose your valve. Never done it but seems like a better way then the air. Plus it wont rotate your piston down.

It works, but it is possible for the rope to tie itself in a not while in the cylinder, not letting it come back out. It's a very slim chance, but it can happen.

Anyway, I got 2 new jack stands to hold the old girl up so I could run it in 4wd to figure out this noise.
Turns out it's the front driveshaft joints.....possibly the ball seat/retainer.
I tore the shaft out, took the first joint out, and realized there's no seat or spring for the center ball.
So I ordered one from NAPA to pick up tomorrow, but I'm dead in the water for now. (weird, they're open from 10am to noon tomorrow and were the only place that had it).
Anyway, I think I'm gonna do a write up.
Oh, and I'll never remove a ujoint without a removal tool EVER again.
These things are slicker than **** with an impact.

It was amazon or eBay, they were around $7-$8 a piece. They’re not molded perfect to the fender but not terrible.

Truck has been bleeding me dry last few weeks. New mufflers, tips and bought a step bumper last weekend. And all this showed up today! Brand new alternator squeaks. Not happy at all!

I've taken my truck to the beach several times and just smash the pedal and do doughnuts and such for a while. It is soothing and I feel much better. Lol. Till the 45 min ride home it comes back. But, at least I had fun for a bit and let some steam off. Lol
