I finished installing mine in April and have absolutely loved it. Great quality across the board. It opens up a lot of opportunity and gave me a lot more clearance. The lowest point prior to install was the bottom of the stock trailer hitch with about 16.5" to the ground. Now with the bumper the...

If it is in this same area, I check your sunroof drains and then the windshield. They are two extremely common culprits. I would work on tracking down the cause, if you don't get it fixed it is only a matter of time until your repair is back to where you are now.

The previous owners didn't do it any favors. Mechanically it is in great shape, but it had a lot of neglect. The sunroof drains were clogged, which is no huge surprise, but you could tell it had been that way for some time. I suspect that is what led to the severity of it. And based on the half...

I am thinking that it is/ was a combination of both sunroof and windshield. It is mostly taken care of now, but can still get damp in heavy storms. It is parked inside now thought which helps a lot.

It turned out great. It took some time to find a shop that was willing to do the repairs for me and I did as much as I could on the areas that weren't already a total loss. I'll have to go back to see if I can find some photos of the repairs. I had both driver and passenger sides done. The...

I had a very similar situation. I replaced all major coolant lines, but left the PHH because a PO had bypassed and the line still looked good (and perhaps some laziness). After a few drives around town I felt confident with it, so it took it 1.5 hours away. The trip there went fine, but the PHH...

I appreciate the input. That is what I am working towards now. I found someone willing to take on the work nearby (most shops wouldn't even consider it, said they were too busy with insurance work) so as soon as I can get it to them it should get worked out. Once it is patched I have some...

I bought this '96 back in April knowing that this was going to be one of the major issues to deal with sooner than later. I will say I didn't realize that this would be such a Flintstones situation. Thankfully the rust other than the drivers floorboard is minimal and surface rust that I have...

It looks like you can still get them on amazon at the moment. I have had good luck with the Pioneer TS-G1620F. I have them mounted in the front and rear doors after a little work. I mounted the rears to the door card, not the original mounts. I reinforced it with a plastic frame behind the door...
