Question. I’m upgrading my old halogen halogen driving lights with new LED lights Hella Value fit 500 - worst name ever, but impressed with build quality so far. .
The new Hellas have a 3 position switch. Driving lights on, DTR lights on and Off.
I currently have 2 SOF aux harnesses. One...
So I am chasing probably 3-4 separate leaks on my Nor Cal 97. Most of ya’ll we’ve been get soaked here with bomb cyclones since new years.
Oh…and my Cat converter got stolen, so I can idle and run the defroster to dry stuff out. Killing me slowly.
Not really a post looking for advice, just...
So....I got these sliders on craigslist a couple weeks ago, but I can't figure out if they are ridiculous or just normal for OPOR sliders.
The issue, at least to my eye, they hang low. I get the advantages of that (no chance of hitting the body/no squeaky noises as the frame flexes)
I talked...
Ok cheapskates.

This write up is about as detailed as I can make it, it was a pain in the A$$, but worth it. Water inside your truck has no business being there. As proof this worked, it rained 12hours last night, a hard driving pacific coast rain, and there was zero ingress. I found a few very helpful thread...
Ok here goes folks. This is the pre-build post as I start to gather supplies.
I'm finally getting into the “fun part” of therapy. I think after my 2020 Knuckle Therapy - https://forum.ih8mud.com/threads/2020-knuckle-therapy.1236413/
work, I might be addicted to this.
Currently on factory...
I made a pretty quick and easy sub mount for the rear quarter panel today.
I originally planned to re use the da sub bracket, but that seam like a pain.
so next went to to home dopey and bought a 6x24 22gauge piece of sheet metal and made did some Cardboard aided design.
I bent these with...
QUESTION: I went to pull of my tow hitch, it needs a coat of paint. However, one of the captive nuts in the frame rail spun off when I was removing it, so now the bolt is just dingling there with the nut free spinning in the frame rail...I'm imagining the only way to full remove is sawzall that...
So I’ve been slowly, getting ready to rebuild the front axles over the last couple days. Really, I’m sand bagging because I think my wife got me a dewalt mid torque impact wrench for Xmas....
In the mean time, here’s what I’ve amassed so far:
Assorted fluids, paper towels and cleaning doodads...
Yup. Selling seats. From a ‘97 40th. Seats are in typical crappy condition. Cardboard leather abs cement seat foam, but workable. The passenger side def needs a seat gear, that’s been dead since I’ve owned it. DS sounds crunchy, so I’d plan on replacing that. No seat belt tab, that’s staying...
Howdy.
I have a pair of really nice WRX seats from an 06 Impreza. PO stated they were taken out at about the 15-20k point and stored
I just bought them a week ago and was planning to swap in my 80, but the seat gods smiled on me an I found a pair of Recaros.
I went through the pain of removing...
Hey ya'll
this is another one of those random thumper questions:
Here's what's happening:
1) When the rig is cold, and for the first 1/4 mile, I get thump that is in time with the speed i'm going, as long as it is below 10mph or so. Above that it goes away.
2) It is especially present when...
I've looked at a dozen charts, and still not sure...reading lean or with oil deposits?
I'm guessing these plugs have 10-15K on them. heat range looks OK? #3 looks the worst? #1 had oil in the tube. The rest were dry.
I have new tube seals.
Throttle body is now clean as a whistle.
What's next?
Mystery question.
There’s this little puddle on top of the power steering res every time I check the oil (every fill up). I wipe it dry, then it’s back next time.
Yet the actual PS fluid supply never changes. What gives? It’s like the fountain of perpetual giving, if only it dispensed...
OK team.
Because I really don't like my money, I bought as used boat. Don't get me wrong, it's a great thing. However, I need to replace the steering cable in my new yacht, and to do that, I need to lift the motor to remove the dang cable. Really, it's a 1.5 :banana: repair, but the dang...
kooking out here.
I just bought a boat.
I want to add some work lights, but I don't want a perm install. I'd mount them to a clamp, clamp them to a railing, plug me in and let there be light.
I figure I can source any number of cheapo cube lights that'd be suitable.
Ideally, I'd love...
