It will never be goneI try to forget... but I keep finding more.
I bought a gallon of it. You are the first person I heard about it from. Love it.Love the blitz black. My favorite paint.
I'm going to be mocking up the controls, cables, and assembly this weekend. I want to confirm functionality prior to re-installing. When I do that I'll capture it with photos, in detail.@Honger awesome! Do you remember/ can you figure out which of the selector cables control the vent selector? (Windhsheild defrost, front vents bottom vents etc etc) If you can take a picture of where it is and then a picture of the mechanism itself where the cable connects box side that would be great. If i can get my hand in there rather than pulling that monster out i would be very happy.
I don't think you will get it connected without at least some disassembly. It's honestly not that hard. I was totally paranoid about taking mine apart but it wasn't that difficult in the end.@Honger awesome! Do you remember/ can you figure out which of the selector cables control the vent selector?

Both, and thanks!I'm going to be mocking up the controls, cables, and assembly this weekend. I want to confirm functionality prior to re-installing. When I do that I'll capture it with photos, in detail.
Do you have a heat/AC setup? Heat only?
No worries, and can, just would like to know the scope before i tear into it.I don't think you will get it connected without at least some disassembly. It's honestly not that hard. I was totally paranoid about taking mine apart but it wasn't that difficult in the end.
Great work! Those nice cleaned up parts are satisfying my OCD.While I was in on all of this I removed the second AC... it worked moderately well but took up valuable space and was kind of bodged together. It was pretty clear to us that with tinted windows the main dash AC could easily handle the whole truck.
Loads of fesh-fesh and rotten foam as I took apart the HVAC ducting...
It got worse when I pulled the dash defrost ducting off and got to see inside the mixer box. The defrost/vent switch on my climate controls always felt like it really couldn't go all the way... like something was resisting. And defrost never blew very well, not that I've needed it much. Well, 30 years of "items" falling down the defrost vent into the mixer looks like this...
So loads of cleaning ensued...
A krugerrand or two could pay for a restoration depending on where you live...Any valuable old coins in there?
yes for the engine, not so much for the trans,,,, give and take. i wish they woulda left the H55 when they did the 1FZ.There's several of us with Omani Troopies around here... (he lucked out with a 1FZ)
Hey @AndrewHadji, see this thread. While I had things apart I went a bit overboard. Hope it's helpful.No worries, and can, just would like to know the scope before i tear into it.
this is amazeballs, yes what i needed. would it be too much to ask for a short video on the "mix" pic mechanism, you cycling through it manually.Hey @AndrewHadji, see this thread. While I had things apart I went a bit overboard. Hope it's helpful.
