Cover shipping and it’s yours! This is the original windshield and frame from my ‘89 BJ73. Good amount of rust on the bottom. One crack in bottom left corner of glass, never bothered me driving.
Last summer I installed a battery equalizer system on my 24V '89 BJ73. This allows 12 volt accessories to pull from the first battery in series while maintaining an equal charge on both batteries. I won't go into the science of why equal charge is important on 24V series systems, but it's worth...
I believe I accidentally ordered the wrong windshield weatherstrip for my '89 Spanish Market BJ-73
I have 56121-90K01 (for 84-85 models) and it looks like I need 56121-90K03 (85-90 models)
Anyone know what the differences are and if it will still work? It looks like in some cases the K03...
I have one Old Man Emu CS017RA (+) rear leaf spring available for sale. It was purchased brand new in April 2021 from Cruiser Outfitters - only used for ~30 miles and then swapped for the shorter "B" version to fix a lean issue with my truck.
$100 , pickup only in Erie, CO

'89 LHD BJ73 w/ 3BII - I'm posting this to inform my fellow LHD BJ73 owners of my findings with OME suspension lifts.
Yesterday I finally managed to level out my BJ73 with a leaf spring swap on the rear passenger side.
The problem stems from being sold an Old Man Emu lift kit by a very...

Brand new, unused oil pressure receiving gauge for various 12V 70 series. Includes new washers and nuts for mounting.
In addition to the model year compatibility above, this will also work in later 1980’s clusters with a gauge of the same same style/shape. Only...
If other posts haven't showed how anal I am about these things, then this one sure will. Anyone know the proper orientation of this rubber hood seal (open facing forward or back)? I can't tell from the diagram.. My truck had it missing since I bought it.
Thanks!

Well my oil pressure receiving unit (in instrument cluster) fried after an emissions test. My guess is that it was on its way out and the higher than average oil pressure during high rev testing caused it to finally overheat and short.
Repair seems difficult...
My '89 BJ73 w/ 3B came to me with a side pipe exhaust setup and it's WAY too loud. I've had enough! I will be taking it in to an exhaust shop to bring it back closer to the stock configuration.
Can anyone share a picture which shows how the stock exhaust was originally routed? An undercarriage...
Looking for tips before I install my rebuilt rotary injection pump on my 3BII
1) Bleeding the system - any techniques? 3B manual just says to loosen the nuts on injection lines to nozzle and crank engine...
2) Regarding timing, I've got my dial gauge ready along with specs for travel at TDC...
Contemplating running an engine flush through my 3BII with 330,000 kms (~200,000 miles). To flush or not to flush is a debate that can go on forever, but my goal is to hear from any of you who have actually done it on the 3B and can speak the the results (or detriments). I don't want to wake the...
** 1989 BJ-73 with 3BII engine and rotary style VE injection pump **
I will be having my injection pump rebuilt in about 1 month. Upon re-install, I will be inserting a dial gauge into the distributive head to get the timing right. I would like to know the size of the adapter needed for my dial...
**Heavy rain last night, '89 LHD BJ-73** This morning, upon starting up my cruiser, water began to spit out of my blower motor (fan was on low when truck was started). Then, water cascaded onto the passenger floor... a lot. This made for a pretty hectic morning commute!
After searching through...
Doing axle work this weekend and I would like to have a bolt handy to pull out the axle shaft. Anyone know what size that bolt should be for an '89 BJ-73? (8mm? 10mm? 12mm?) See pic below for clarity;
Thanks!!
I'm trying to pick a grease for wheel and knuckle bearings on my '89 BJ-73. I'm already placing an Amsoil order soon, so looking at their selection. I can't decide between these two lithium-based products:
Synthetic Polymeric Truck, Chassis, and Equipment Grease
&
High Viscosity Lithium...
Hello mudders, I'm involved in some pump jeopardy at the moment. I have a Spanish market 3B diesel 1989 BJ-73 which needs a water pump replacement, but I'm not sure which one to order. Mainly, I have found two variations of pumps; one made up until 08/1988 and one made after. My vehicle is a...
