hi all. i've searched and i can't find anything. do we get a mud discount with wits end? thanks.

great to see the progress. keep the pics coming.

no leaks and no codes. thats a unicorn 80.

great find. number should be on a plate on the flat part to the right of the High/Lo shifter. love the old school cell phone. lockers?

that's the part i can't figure out. any tips on how to free up the ends of the wires?

I've got some in the mail that I found in one of the links in my original post. Any idea how to separate the bulb from the plastic housing? Thanks.

Hi all. I've searched all over this site and found some great info on rehabbing my OEM 97 radio. I've already desoldered the display and replaced the bulbs that light up the long horizontal display. Now I want to fix some of the screw in type bulbs and I can't figure out how to get the old...

I have a friend with a hundy (100 series) who talks about only occasionally "having to put it in 4wd" when it snows. I corrected him the first time years ago, now, I just smile and nod. Both 80 series and 100 series are full time four wheel drive. The 80 is set up to lock the center diff when...

wow. thanks for sharing all the pics. i've never seen the collectors edition floor mats before. i really enjoyed seeing the window sticker. the lockers seem like a bargain but the fake wood seems way too high. was the collectors edition really that much more than the regular 80's or did...

Could you expand on this? I thought it just kicked the HVAC on if you left it running when you turned the car off and it just held the same settings you had it on before you turned the car off.

at this point i wouldn't be scared to drive it. if you are worried, you can do laps around your neighborhood. its not uncommon to have to burp the system. i.e., drive it, let it cool, check the level and add as needed. i do this for a few days after i do a coolant flush. no big deal, as...

I think cold is 36PSI. So 41 is recommended?

Thanks for the offer and the replies. Frustrating to burn through a set of tires prematurely based on poor alignment. I rotate every 10K. Maybe I should shorten that interval.

My first 200 was a '11 LX. The last set of tires I had put on wore quite rapidly on the inside. I chalked it up to a bad alignment and had it realigned at the dealership. First alignment was done at a local shop. The damage was already done so they eventually wore to unsafe on the inside so...

i'd pass on the first one as well. the rear crossmember doesn't bother me. you can always add a 4x4 labs rear bumper which makes you cut off the crossmember anyway. i'd be a lot more wary of the rust. wrenching on these things can be a PITA sometimes and i'm always thankful i'm not fighting...
