This is probably common knowledge for y'all 80 folk...

...the Duralast brand tie-rod ends at Autozone are re-boxed Made-in-Japan 555 parts. $25 apiece with lifetime replacement warranty.

The parts distributor sales guys of the area do that. It may or may not be the same in every area. They literally go back there and re-box parts.
Which is actually how come you can get a different part if you buy two of the same box. Hate that aspect of parts sales.

What's the latest in Dat Ass Chris?

My team in Crosset/Hamburg Arkansas are working on Ele issues with rear locker. When BMF calls I'll pick it up and get it in the que at my good friends at Jrobs garage in Florence.then to 49 Tire for maintenance work.

On schedule.
 
I'm the laggard :(

Between my daughters roof leak problem, the unexpected bathroom remodel on my in-laws bath, and my own laziness I have completely let this project slip. I'll do better:whoops:

time we got. money we aint.
 
Cloth 80 seats wanted

I know it's a long shot but it looks like we are going to do another Alaska trip this summer and I would really like to find a set of cloth manual seats for an 80 before the trip. Gray cloth preferred and really only need the front two but would take first and second row if I can find them. Would y'all help keep an eye out for a set for me? They dont need to be purfect -just servicabke. Thanks-D

there's some pretty leather coming out of an 80 we bought in AR a while ago . . .

sometime this spring . . .

just sayin' ;) :hillbilly:
 
not too bad at all when we got the truck from you :cheers:

but by now the driver side seam is ripping up - the passenger side seat gear is no longer working, either, and it needs a new switch - and since the seats need to come out and the leather needs to be taken off the seat even if I just had the seam restitched or replaced the switch on the other seat, I figured I support a well-known cruiser business and put some new leather on :flamingo:

in turn, the truck now has a "Tools" interior tire carrier with a Puma air compressor, and a 12K winch :D, and we just bought the used Short Bus in Lafayette :hillbilly:

and thanks for the radiator shield :cheers: (gave us an opportunity a drive into the countryside where we hadn't been before :D)
 
I own the rig that bhmmapping threw the H42 manual tranny in and made P/T 4WD... While awesome, and very cool to drive... it ain't me. I miss my auto. It's just me.
I wanna trade it. I'd even take stock 3FE... but would rather trade for something RTR, ready to rock.
