Hmm.
Had my "new" '99 UZJ100 on a lift at the dealership yesterday, and had my first unimpeded inspection in strong light.
Everything looked clean and tidy, but I noticed one bolt still holding a small bit of stiff material with an old, broken-off edge. ???
The mech said that was from the fiberglass "cover" that is missing on most of the two or three-year-old cruisers. He said the material gets brittle after a couple of years and starts to shred. They don't generally replace them, he says. :-\
Does anybody know the part and its purpose in life? Is it worth replacing?
thanks
