I am looking at possibly replacing my bumper with something more solid. I like the ARB but it looks too much with the bar. Wanting something solid but more discreet that I can put a winch behind. I looked at fab fours but wondering if anyone else has experience or picture they can provide...
I purchased a 10 report subscription from Autocheck a month ago and I found out tonight I cant use it because its expired. Grrrrrrrr.......... Can anyone who has a Carfax or Autocheck account do me a favor and run a the following VIN? JTEHT05J112005379. Im looking to replace the 80 with a...
I've been nursing along a sick exhaust system for a year now, welding here and a little there. The CE light is coming right away now after its been cancelled (po420) so its time to do the obvious. Everything after the header (except the resonator) needs to be replaced. I dont think the cats...
My truck has progressively gotten worse over the past weeks as it pulled towards the right. Searches in this forum did not reveal the cause of my problem.... I was sure it was an alignment problem because my passenger tire was wearing unevenly and my brakes were not dragging. But I was a bit...
I want to get a cruiser with low miles but finding it with lockers is pretty tough.
Q1) How easy would it be to take the locking diffs I have in my current 80 and retrofit them into a factory non-locked cruiser wit low miles. This question pertains more to the wiring and electronics...
The bastards are making record profits each year because today I was one of many who paid CDN$1.202 per liter (US$3.95/gal). Most of Canada is disparate, which means we burn more fuel to get places. We pay more taxes (and fuel taxes) than other similar countries... and our Prime Minister says...
ARB bull bar and Ramsey RE12000 fitment... DONE!
Well, I enquired a while ago if anyone here has ever fitted RE series Ramsey winch into an 80 series ARB bull bar. No-one had, and some people were interested to see how things would turn out if I were to try. Here is my account of installing...
Email me if you'd like more details.

Im looking to get another 80 but since Im in no hurry I can wait to find the one I want. So, what do I want? Well, a truck that comes from a region where there is the least wear and tear due to climatic conditions. It seems to me that extreme heat like in TX will cause things to...
Has anyone ever tried to fit an RE series ramsey winch to an ARB bar? I've contacted both ARB and Ramsey and they both do not sell parts for adaptation to the bumper. Basically, Im left with having to do the appropriate modifications myself.:confused:
For those that have the winch type ARB...
Well its pouring rain here in the Northwest where we average 2500 mils of rain annually. Im actually on vacation here so this problem cropped up and I've never seen it before... I did a quick search but it revealed little.

Hi all.
Well my starter hasn't always been engaging in the cold weather here - you know that grinding teeth on teeth sound like when grandma re-starts the car when its already been started - so I removed it to clean it up inside and even do the contacts. Well lo and behold, the side of...
Hi all. Ive got some big chrome mirrors for 60/62 series on eBay. See all the details on the following link...

Did someone pull my engine? Im doing a PHH check and I see lots of connections marked with blue and green paint. Ive never seen this on any other cars Ive had and this makes me wonder.
Later.
Ok, I’m a bit confused. I’m sure the cruiser’s AWD principles are archaic to today’s technology, which is probably the source of my confusion. But isn’t AWD supposed to be better on snowy roads than with CDL on because power goes to the wheels that grip and not slip? In any case, with respect...
... I drove around with it on. :doh: Please don't b***h slap me because my wife already has.
Im gonna yank the rotor in a couple days and take a look see as to what I'll need to do. If anyone has any experience with this would it be safe to say Ill need to turn the drum and replace...
I think this is the factory alarm for the cruiser but its not under the driver's seat and its not, apparently, the RS3000 that everyone knows about.
1) Can anyone tell me what brand etc this is so I can order a remote or programming instructions? This was found on the inner wheel well...
How steep of a sidehill have you taken with your 80? Ive felt a little edgy on a couple trails, especially when they are wet, and Im trying to get a sense of how steep I can go without flopping on my side. Since there are different variables that will dictate the maximum angle, lets assume...
Does anyone know of a link or ??? for a scanned copy of the FSM for the 80 series? I have one for my diesel 60 and its great because I just print the pages I need and then recycle them. I did a quick search and didn't find anything.
Cheers...
Hey. Im new to this list and this list ROCKS compared to others I part of. OK, enough flattery. Ive searched the archives and I havent found any thread describing my problem. Problem is this: When I hit the power door lock button on the driver or passenger side all the door locks sometimes...
