The parts list that @jonheld posted is somewhere in the ballpark of $900. The $2k quote is the shop telling you that they don’t want to be involved, or it’s their penalty for rust. If every bolt is rusted shut, the $2k doesn’t sound too unrealistic.

It might be you sub-harness for the oil pressure sender. I pulled my engine and had it rebuilt in the fall of 2021. A new oil pressure sender was installed then since the tab on top rusted and broke off the original. However after the engine...

Nice Kenny now install all those parts I sent you. A full OEM tune up and whole sale automatics valve body will make that thing run like new.

I'm familiar with them :)

As with Amazon the 4 post terminals are no longer listed. https://www.amazon.com/dp/B09LM1TB4H I actually bought 3 sets of terminals. This was the only pair that worked well with the 24F battery posts. The others were too long to fit between the...

Big thanks to Shaun @angerhater for offering to help and Kurt @ Neslrac for hosting and helping get this winch installed before Logan’s Run. Kurt did win this winch for me so it was only right to make him put it on. This has been the last...

Scored some hood vents from a coworker. Quick install. I think they look good. And seem to help.

Follow on from yesterday and removing the old faulty booster. Got the new booster set up, installed clevis to match position on original. Verified the master cylinder spacing of the booster nozzle/pin (whatever it is actually named). Was spot on...

My Cruiser was struggling to start and watching the Victron shunt and it was clear that the alternator wasn't charging like it used to. I purchased a new reman AC delco Jaguar alternator from RockAuto and installed it over the weekend. The jag...

Eric J installed the cheapest ebay compressor and clutch and it lasted 10+ years before it died. I installed a RockAuto denso unit 12 years ago along with expansion valve and drier. The Denso was twice the price of the offbrands but I have ice...

Just replace the whole thing man, compressor with clutch. Even if you use a cheap unit from rock auto, it'll work for a few years. It would be best if you replaced the expansion valve/orifice tube and flush as well, but do it. I put a whole kit...

Aliexpress is clutch for connectors. Shipping takes forever though. I incorrectly ordered three female connectors (didn't notice the ad defaulted to female and the picture showed both male and female) when I needed males. Waited a month, got...

Today's project has been getting my skid plates ready to weld on the 80 - I did some CAD(Cardboard Aided Design) followed by some actual AutoCAD, and had them cut on the plasma table at work. Plan was to use 3/8", but they didn't have enough 3/8"...

Continuing to (finally) update the lighting on Ft Knox. The old reverse light that I previously mounted in the spare tire carrier did its job over the years, but I bought a 4-pack of LED pods pretty cheap on Amazon, with the plans to put a...

I also cleaned up the wiring pn my homemade QPM. The fuse box is currently powering a remote controller relay. I will be adding a Victron 100/30 MPPT to the bottom of the QPM for solar charging.

It's an AC Delco alternator for a Jaguar. The first one only last 5 years but it was covered in mud.

I finally replaced my military terminals with something nicer. New reman Jag 140A alternator installed. Only minor trimming to make it fit.

Added these. Totally worth it IMO. I wish I had them when I drove it across the country.

N Is it possible to cause this kind of damage by overfilling the grease in the balls? No, the extra grease will come out in the wipers. You might have some big chunks bouncing around the front differential. That could cause binding but it...

How much grease was in the hub around the locking nuts? Those locking nuts hold the wheel bearings. This should be a fairly greasy mess. If it was clean, the bearing could be bad however my guess is there's a problem with the birfield since the...

Yeah man, I bought some beadlocks for my 80 and they came with these tires, I took these tires off and mounted some km3 35s. These tires are like new, just wanted something else, thats the only reason. I ran them for a day lol and I do like the...

Unfortunately I have to back out. Alternator on the Cruiser decided it wanted to retire early.

New to the area. See you all tomorrow.

I kept meaning to reach out and send you the photo I took of your pupper. I didn't get to use it in Trails for the Relic Run article, but thought you should get to see it.

Why are you selling? The yokohama's are my next tire but I need a 315/75R16.
