    New (for me) 80-series

    That is definetly a trip. Never seen a Nightshadow Pearl look like that. Very unique if it actually isn't unpainted. Have you seen this thread? https://forum.ih8mud.com/threads/nightshadow-pearl-blue-rollcall.405360/page-6

    if you have solar to charge battery/s how is yours set up ?

    All you need is the panel of your liking and a solar charge controller. Doesn't need to be an MPPT. Wire it to your primary or auxiliary circuit and the isolator will open and charge both batteries.

    Diablo drop after recent rains..

    Thanks for posting, I've been curious what its looking like in general in the desert after Kay... should be a fun year with some new obstacles. Hopefully some of the graded roads are back to "normal" again!! ; )

    Fuel Trim

    Just going to mention it since it's easy, but you can give the MAF a cleaning if you haven't in a while. It helped my STFT and LTFT get a little closer to 0 on my other truck. Those values are within spec as mentioned above.

    96 blown trans and possible engine

    Is that your photo? That is a fairly common area for engine oil to accumulate via a pan gasket leak. You're 100% sure that it is transmission fluid?

    What Did You Do with Your 80 This Weekend?

    Mine don't!

    Growling Howling bearing sound after front end rebuild!!

    The deeper gears probably amplified an existing issue on the driveshaft. I've been down that road 2 times now re-gearing vehicles to 4.88s.

    Dobinsons 2.5" Lift with MRR Shocks and VT Coils.

    Did you have to use a compressor or did the axle drop far enough to get those things in there? The top coils appear to have a lot more space now between them so they don't buzz against each other. Sweet.

    Another stubborn crank bolt

    I tried to get mine off for months myself. What worked for me was the 3/4" breaker bar like you have with a 6ft cheater bar slid over it. I had to remove my hood for it to fit.

    "Flat Spot" when trying to start '96 80-series

    Before diving into the starter, check physical electrical connections at battery, starter and grounds. Ensure they are tight and not corroded. What is your battery voltage? How old is the battery?

    No CEL - MAF Tear Down - No Start - EB1 Faulty (Solved)

    Are you sure that the security system isn't in some sort of immobilization function? I have seen systems which will default into a lockout mode if the battery was disconnected and reconnected. There should be a bypass switch located somewhere under the dash, hopefully. The solid red light vs...

    10x10 Kodiak Canvas Deluxe - first impressions

    I really enjoyed my Kodiak Deluxe 9x7. It did great in the wind and was extremely sturdy. If you didn't know this already, go buy some 10" lag bolts and hopefully you have an electric impact wrench to drive them in to secure the tent base. I was having a hard time feeling that normal tent...

    Tighter Colorado emissions standards starting 1/1/22

    Too lazy to compare the values to California standards, sorry. But if it makes you feel any better I've yet to fail a smog test in my 23 years of car ownership. All of those years I have owned 4x4's with over 200k on the ODO.

    Yellow Post Campsites San Bernardino

    The last couple years have been pretty brutal with people. The YP sites used to be sort of "hidden" and you had to find them with an old school GPS or just come across them while you were cruising around. That being said, I was out at the Coon Creek ones in early June this year and the last few...

    AGM Battery Question

    I have run countless lead acid batteries without issues... I bought one AGM battery a few years back and it crapped out on me within 6 months. I have heard of similar stories. Whichever way you go, you can squeeze a group 31 in there for a bit more capacity.

    Body & Paint Referral

    No North County shops I can recommend but I did see you on the road a few weeks ago on Encinitas Blvd. I really liked the color of your rig! I think I was driving my Ferd though.
