When checking the u jounts park on level ground and set the handbrake after you put the truck in park before you let off the foot brake. Then climb under the truck and wiggle the drive shafts. This will make sure there isn’t any load in the driveline, preventing them from binding when your...

When my rear u joint went bad it would only vibrate in acceleration. Off the gas it didn’t vibrate enough for me to really feel it.

OME J spring lift kit with L shocks. If you are stock weight these will lift the truck about 4.5 inches. I ran about 3.5 on my loaded 80. I upgraded to Dobinsons MRAs and I don't need these anymore. They were used for about 5 years. Shocks have some paint rubbed off but none of them leak. $450...

I definitely recommend running the least amount of lift that you need especially for going fast off road. I’m running 35s with the dobinsons 2.5” dual rate spring in the front and the 2” (may be advertised as a 2.5 online but the box said 2”) dual rate in the rear with 4” MRAs and some timbren...

I have Lseat. They look great when new but you get what you pay for. I've got a couple of tears in my seams after about 2 years.

P1S is a great printer. Prusa printers are known for reliability but have fallen behind somewhat in recent years in fancy tech features. Check your local classifieds as well, lots of people selling good printers at great prices. Far as materials PLA can be used but is prone to warping and can...

I’ve got an extra pair of 2850j’s I’d give you for a good price if you are interested.

Dobinsons MRAs showed up and WOW they are awesome. It is a huge improvement over my L shocks. Adjusted them on the road for about a week before I took them out for their first test run at five five-mile pass only for the one POS aftermarket brake line the PO put on to burst. Was able to clamp...

Have the same problem with my 94. It’s Fine if I leave the hood open after I drive it to let it cool down. Looking forward to finding a fix with this thread!

PN for the hose that attaches to the caliper (the one that burst) would also be appreciated so i can get one brought out to me

Currently I’m am stranded out at five mile pass. My front driver side brake line has burst. Currently I’ve got a vice grip on it stopping the flow. I can get down the trail with this but is there any way I can plug off just that brake to make it home.

Hey everyone I dropped the adjuster/fastening bolt on my 80s dizzy. Does any one have the dimensions for it so I can buy a spare?

Also try pulling the brake light bulb out of the taillight housing and see if both filaments illuminate when pressing the brake with the headlights off. Both filaments should come on when the brake is pressed without headlights being on. The ground fixed this for me when I had this symptom. I...

Your taillight issue is likely bad grounds on the bulb socket. I had the same thing on mine which I solved by cutting and stripping the ground wire and folding it over the socket so that the bulb holds it in. It’s not the proper way to solve its but it’s been over a year of trouble free bumps...

That’s the same spot i noticed. I will try moving it and maybe sticking something to shield the heat temporarily to see if that helps. If no change is found I’ll have to dig more into the harness.
