Let the rascals drive. The big one runs the gas & brake and the little ones steer. they'll never let me sell this truck. fj80kids by antiacus posted Jan 6, 2017 at 8:12 AM

No issues. Haven't been off-road yet. They've done great on paved surfaces in this pnw monsoon.

Thanks guys. New water pump will be installed on Thursday. I'll also take the opportunity to finally install my new A/C belt :)

Not sure how useful this is. It was just barely leaking this morning, but you can see some fluid coming out of the weep hole. Maybe a better trained eye will see something i don't.

Thanks Kernal - i'll have a better look tomorrow. I'll see if i can post a quick video.

Strange because it seems to be intermittent, but in the most inconvenient of times my truck gets low on coolant/water and gets hot. Today when i got home it wasn't immediately dripping but i left it idling until it started up. The leak seems to be from behind the pulley that attaches to the...

Nope. Been living with it. I've had a crazy hectic year and not much time for projects. Honestly it's just an inconvenience since it never lasts longer than thirty seconds or so but I sure would like to get it sorted. Thinking up may try tps next.

Turns out the search button works just fine on this forum. Thanks Summit Cruisers: REMOVING REGULATOR AND MOTOR ASSEMBLY. In order to remove the regulator/motor you will need to lower the window almost all the way down where you can unbolt the window from the track. There are two 10mm bolts...

I've got the panel & weathershield off. I'm assuming i need to tape the window in the up position, then unbolt the entire regulator, remove it as a unit, replace motor and install or can i do it without removing the regulator?

Thanks guys. Going to have to wait until next weekend. I may get one of my minions to video it for me, less so for educational purposes but to honor the time tested tradition of allowing others to point & laugh :)

My driver window went out. It started where i could bang on the door and it would go up or down. Now i have to hold the switch and manually push or pull the thing up or down. I don't have $300 bucks to buy OEM. Anyone have experience with these? Interesting that they fit so many different...
