Looks great! Just backed 🙌

Long time fan/follower.. is there anywhere that you discuss in detail how you've been able to fund the adventure?

thanks for this.. i've been running 33's for the past few years.. i'm probably part of the problem

I always thought the differentials and gear cases (transfer excluded) were indestructible.. is it normal a 40 rear differential can get so much wear the teeth will break?

Nice cruiser! It's originally from Costa Rica (ULACIT) and almost a brother to mine: your license was 81279 and i'm 83097.. yours is a 77 and mine a 79 👍

have had my 79 BJ40 DD for over 15 years.. the rims have always been a mashup of styles and sizes (7 and 8 inch).. recently came across a 45 selling 4 matching rims that matched one of mine so the dream of having matching rims (including spare) was born. first problem was one of the rims off the...

FWIW seems to be a leak in the vacuum tank.. it sounds like water but it's actually the tank depressurizing..

thank you @pb4ugo - that is exactly what i was asking and you gave me exactly the information i was missing.. sorry if the way i wrote the question was misleading, i know how to change a tire

Silly question... had the front wheel in the air while changing a tire and i couldn't get it to stop spinning. In theory if i put the transfer in 4H and the hub in 4x4 and the truck is in gear or the handbrake engaged it shouldn't spin right? Could it be a problem with the hub (can't remember...

Has happened twice so far, so not consistent enough for me to jump out, pop the hood and pinpoint where the sound is coming from before it stops. When i first heard it i had just parked, pulled the choke and then heard a gurgling sound like water draining for about 10s but stopped before i could...

tks Steamer, it was exactly this problem.. one of the springs was broken.. switched up the springs and now have exactly the other problem described in that thread.. trying to see if i can locate the replacement part..

Thank you! Do you have a reference for the springs? I had the clutch changed recently and the mechanic mixed up the springs at least once

Sorry, it's a 79, 4 speed

Was about to descend a very steep hill and went to put it in the low gear and I think maybe it didn't enter completely and then I tried to put it from neutral into first and it wouldn't enter any gear, it appeared to be stuck in neutral. I took my foot off the clutch and the motor stalled. Tried...

Recently had the clutch replaced but now have a problem where it pops out of gear when the truck isn't moving or at slow speeds.. so far I'm able to drive fine just keeping my hand on the shifter to keep it in gear until the truck is cruising.. ideas?
