Ran across this old post of mine and figured I should wrap it up. After 2 years and having the burb at 2 different shops with no result to the surging idle, I stumbled upon the answer at a Ford site. Surging idle can be caused by a number of different problems. IAC, EGR, EGR controller, MAP...
Go electric and save yourself some money. Like most everyone above has stated, DA sanders take a lot of air. You need volume. Plus with an electric you can work where you may not want or have the compressor. They are heavier, but in someways that is an advantage if your removing paint from...
Makita is the brand to go with from the info I received.
I had recently purchased a Milwaukee 14 volt system. I was having a problem with the clutch slipping. I took to the local independent repair guy. He told me that Ryobi purchased the Milwaukee name. That Dewalt and B&D were owned by the...
I don't know about the glass. It could be more then you think. It is more then likely tempered. The cost to replace a 16"x24" of tempered glass in my small green house was 20 bucks.
I was thinking of buying one of those. I read several reviews and most were complaining about the wind blowing...
I did mine a number of years ago (1980s). I kept the 3 speed. It's paid for! I originally used the older Downey kit with the spacer and front saddle mount. I have been driving it for years and found it to work just fine. When I installed PS I switched out the front saddle mount and used the...
Hey, How about a few pics of the finished bumper/racks all installed? The last pictures were great, but if you have a couple with the entire set up mounted it would be much appreciated. Also would like to know approx what the entire assembly cost you to build? Any problems or design changes you...

Ok Here is the history:
1990 R2500 Suburban with ABS
Replaced the front calipers, hoses, rotors and pads. Replaced rear shoes and wheel cylinders.
Spent hours trying to bleed the brakes and get some decent pedal. Finally removed the MC and found it had been leaking in the rear. MC...
Wow, thought my post had gotten buried in the archives. Great stories and history. It's a testament to the durability and functionality of the Landcruiser, that not only so many fell in love with it, but continued to own and purchase them over the years. If only we could see such simplicity and...
Yeah I was thinking the ratchet strap trick myself. There is not a problem with the top setting down. In fact the top is currently all bolted down snug. Let me ask one of you with your hard top on this:
Does the inside door jamb of the top (hatch) line up flush with the jamb of the tail gate...
I finally got around to putting the hardtop on after many years of running without it. For some reason now the hatch and opening do not seem to fit correctly. The opening on the hardtop looks a bit out of sq. It seems as if the back sides of the hardtop should move in so as to narrow the hatch...
The first cruiser I drove was a neighbors. I was 17. It had the 3 on the tree. I just loved it and had to had one. Put my MGA up for sale and started looking. Oh the memories.
D'Animal - I have had good luck with some of CCOT products and then some didn't work as well as I had hoped. SOR is a good source for hard to find stuff. If I go OEM, I will probably use Mark's.
40sRock - What did you use for around the tubular posts? Did you use the OEM? I may need the...
