    For Sale  Testing waters: Locked 97 fjz80

    Hi guys, I have decided to possibly part with my 80. As some of you know I went through it doing all the PM and normal mods. I really love it, it's an amazing vehicle but no longer is needed. It has been sitting for a few months, so I'm not in dire need to sell, as I'd really like for it to...

    I screwed up. Front axle f'up.

    Well, I had started rebuilding my front axle with all new bearings, seals, etc. I finished one side, then started pulling the other. Got it all apart, cleaned up, degreased, ready for reassembly. Then a long family emergency meant I couldn't work on it. So it sat, with one side of the axle...

    Powertank pro regulator (xp 400i)

    Well, after 6 years, my home-made Chinese knock-off Victor oxygen regulator repurposed for co2 use failed. It was 20-some dollars, plus another 10 for the co2 nipple/nut. Put a 1/4npt qd on it and it served it's purpose well.. kind of. It had trouble going over 150psi. I finally killed it trying...

    Just thought I'd post

    Newbie thinking about buying (tech questions)

    I hate to start these nub style threads, but I've been a long-time lurker here and just decided to post. I'm seriously considering a fjz80, but I'm torn. I found a nice locked fjz but I'm not sure if the price difference (close to 2500) is worth it. I do mechanic work by trade, and would be able...
