      I do not recall finding any aftermarket options for the resistor, but I also do not recall looking either. With the info provided by AirheadNut, I would suggest removing the resistor first to visually inspect it. My experience was the wire...

      Had to grab a couple of things out of the Cruiser so I snagged a photo while I was there. Looks like just one screw to undo instead of two. Here is a photo of the resistor, mine is a 12v variation so the part number might differ from your...

      So that gets me up to current time. 9 months. Thats a long time and I appreciate how patient Brendan has been. My next two were scheduled to leave the west coast of Saudi on the 15th but Iran decided to lob missles all over the Persian Gulf so...

      What’s the problem that you want to remove the fan switch? Lots of times the problem with fan not working or only on some speeds is the resistor mounted on/near the fan itself

      Fan drops out of the bottom of the housing

      @Gun Runner 5 it's a 1995 Subaru Sambar. The only 4 cylinder kei truck variant I believe....5 speed, push button T case, crawler low gear, and A/C. It's the perfect little ranch truck. I just taught my 10 year old daughter how to drive it...

      I don’t have my 2H anymore so I can’t help. Do you have a maintenance manual with the wiring diagrams? That should help.

      Ring and pinion is original, that is they weren’t replaced. Bearings were replaced and a solid spacer was used. What parts exactly need breaking in? The bearings and/or ring and pinion? Thanks

      The front cleared better than the rear, but I didn't have much of a problem either way. The rear just rubbed a bit of the paint off of the inside of the wheel well at full tuck My friend and I drove into a ditch at an angle to measure full droop...

      you could go with a non-boosted type. my ute came that way and I drove it like that until I did the rhd to lhd swap. I still had my boosted one from the bj70 I parted out. then when ever its time to replace your clutch you could go with a...

      Doesn’t seem that long. The price of fuel at that Raceway has increased just a tad. 😁

      I’m running what I believe to be 1/4” spacers in the front, Charles had swapped out the lugs with longer ones

      Update: i was able to remove the upper housing using a vice to pull the upper housing the same way a puller SST would. So the old girls drivable now atleast. Just waiting on the new parts so I don't have to use a screwdriver to start her.

      you would have to compare side by side between the round headlight and square headlight front end. just going from memory I would say you would have to change fenders also. carpets/interior options I think would only be newer 70 series which...

      Finally got around to replacing the power steering gearbox. Redhead found two problems with the core steering box I sent them. 1. The output shaft had a lot of scoring on it at the old oil seal location. They called me and explained that given...
