    For future work, we're eyeballing re-doing the entire rear section. It's having some rust trouble, so sandblasting and repainting seems like the best option before it gets worse. However, while we're there it doesn't hurt to make some modifications. Due to the nature of this vehicle, there is a...

    Long time no see. Spent winter break back home working on some small quality of life changes, including Yoda's ability to change her oil by herself. We found a leak of oil both on the lower oil pan and the distributer, and so those were swapped out. Along with that, a nice leak of tranny fluid...

    So, as some of you may now Yoda has had an oil leak problem. It’s not entirely obvious; but where I’ve been parking a large oil stain has appeared under the car. Yipee. So...being the smart idiot that @2fpower is he suggested to not only switch out the head gasket (it was quite obvious the leak...

    Oh, and the sliders are off being re-grinded, sandblasted, and painted better than being rattle-canned...that is why they are missing from the picture

    Alright, another small but darn-cool looking project was just finished today. It was a blast to get away from the stress of school and just life in general to go out and work on something that is more than just a car. After looking at pink dots and a black circle marks stenciling where the...

    Replacement OEM cylinder head gasket set

    Do I recall that this kit was discontinued? can you only buy the full engine kit now? If so, does it include everything you need now?

    While my old man was at a meeting I did 2 things, 1 was just easy, the other I'm very proud of: I tightened the steering wheel cover and I installed the truck bed top for the trip! In the last photo you can also see the jack mounts we installed yesterday!

    Today we were able to get the brackets and the spare tire in, the bracket to hold the gas tank, and my Yoda Bobblehead! We also started to try to fit in the Tuffy Box.

    This morning was a good morning. I'm proud to say the Montaliner is COMPLETE! Oh my gosh that feels so good to say let alone type up. Here are the photos. Some are turned around to show correct orientation so the ground is not where it normally is. Tripped me up for a bit. It looks great and the...

    This sounds like a stupid question but: How will we get the skin to align? Will re-skinning it make it the right size or will more work need to be put in to make it flush with the rest of the car?

    Got a test fit for the bed and how far back we will put the wheels. We decided on putting it roughly 9 in back so there is less of a area to hit when going down ledges when this rig finally hits offroad. Got the sanding on the driver's side nearly done, just got to de-grease the bottom and do...
