@rex in bama - I had a friend help me with the install of the radio, though it was was pretty simple. The radio slid into the area that was already cut out for the old Pioneer tape cassette. Then mounted as you typically do with the brackets that the radio came with. Plus a few things he had...
Busy week…installed a new fuse block (original one of the clips broke, so every time I hit a bump a fuse would pop out - original owner had a tape deck radio installed and instead of wiring it correctly decided to clip the hot wire into the clip of the block 🤷🏻♂️). Thanks @ToyotaMatt for the...
I won't initiate a wave with a Jeep, but if they wave I'll wave back. I had a '98 wrangler for a few years so don't mind it. I also had a Defender 90 for a short period as well and regret it every now and then because it was the last year the 90s were in the US...and man, the price they go...
Depends on what you want...but I echo the others that the price seems too high for a Franken40. You're getting the shell of a 40, but not much else. If you want more of the classic, original look I'd keep looking. Look for something with not many mods done, 2.5" lift and 33/10.50s
Go back a page and look at my post from Jan of last year. The lighting is off a bit, but you can see the new wheels in sun. It’s an off-white, but not cream. I did my bezel at the same time. Now just want to do the top - but that would require me to redo the liner 😵💫
I looked at 1013 as well - I had compared the two against my original (cleaned up as much as I could) in sunlight and shade and decided to go with 9010 as a close match. End of the day it’s really personal opinion. The 1013 was a bit too creamy IMO.
Hey all - listen to this clip and let me know if the “skipping” sound is an issue. I’m sitting in neural and press on the gas and it starts to have a skipping sound. Cause for concern? My ‘82 is new to me and I don’t know “her sounds”. Thx all!
Note: originals 2F, 128k, desmogged
Got my passenger door lock fixed, reinstalled and new TEQ keys. Much appreciation to @ToyotaMatt for the help! If anyone needs new keys or locks, he’s your guy. Super helpful and goes the extra mile to take care of his customers.
It’s an 82, so may not be much help. With regards to the radio - I’m going to take out the tape deck the PO installed and put in a retro sounds that has a more stock look, but connects with Bluetooth. I also need to figure out how/where to install a USB charger for the phone(s).
Yeah - they coated the whole wheel. I understand now. I’ll go sand off/remove the paint before I put them back on. Thanks for the tip! 👍
So - backside of the wheel? And under the lugnuts?
