The harness connector is shot, but not an issue as I'm cutting it off and using my own. However he also bit the fuel float for the...

    Ozbar Rear Bar Installation

    I started looking for a rear bar for my 80 a few months ago. My goals were as follows; - Decent price - Dual Spare Tire capability as I drive on sharp rocks in Nevada and have had a lot of sidewall cuts and punctures. Even with patch kit/compressor always a stress point. I...

    The infamous winter Goose Honk.

    I have the cold weather noise/vibration, amazingly loud when it happens. Fortunetly this is once in a blue moon, and only last a few seconds. Other threads point this to dry bearings. I'm looking for opinions on how time critical this is to fix. I have a 1000 mile trip, with some off road...

    Drive belt tension Pulley

    I started getting a bearing noise from the engine area, and found it to be the A/C tension pulley, which I am in the process of replacing. While looking through the FSM I noticed there is a tensioner/pulley for the twin drive belts as well in the pictures. My rig has no such pulley in place...

    Hi All, While removing a wheel lug from the right rear of my 94 LC, I broke one of the studs. (Wheels were last removed by the dealer, I assume they used air to tighten....). After searching the forum it seems possible to hammer the stud out without removing the axle, then manuever the new...
