Glove-box grab bar?

Hi everyone I have the grab bar on my 93 that I purchased from SOR. Installation is very easy since there are tabs already in the dash from the factory. If you open the glove-box and feel around you will feel the tabs right above the glove-box. The one I got from SOR came with nuts that bolt on to the grab bar its just the matter of finding the tabs and drilling into the dash.
 
Navid,

Thanks a lot for chiming in.

Now those Doubting Thomas' can go to bed. ;)

Now if we can get similar level of comfort from the post-'95 owners. ;p

Thanks again!

Mot :)
 
OK,

I've heard back from my guy (it was a national holiday yesterday) and he told me that "sable" was indeed tan/brown. :bounce:

So that settles it (I hope).
He stated an ambiguous(sp) statement in his message concerning their availability, so I'm double-checking with him to make sure that we can get both colors for any year.

Also, if you have any interest in any of the other garbage I have, I would be willing to give you maybe a 10% discount (clear lenses, fog/driving lights, 2nd-row reclining hinges, rear ladders, rear license plate relocator, etc...) You just let me know (sorry for doing this here :grinpimp: ). Let me know.

Anyway, I'll let you know what I find out about the "bars" for sure and get going on it soon.

Hope you have a good Friday/weekend!

Yours,

Mot
 
I'll bump. What's the pricing on 'the other stuff'? Specifically the hinges & lenses?

Thanks again Mot!
 
tiorio,

You can check this old thread to give you ideas:

https://forum.ih8mud.com/showthread.php?t=37342&highlight=OEM

The thread is somewhat old and I need to update it (I've got some more stuff acquired since then).

To ship the "bar" (assuming 1kg) via air will cost $24 and shipping the 3kg-hinges together with the bar via slowboat, for example, will cost you "only :rolleyes: ) $10.50 extra. ;)

Anyway, you can PM me if you are interested in any of the items, or anything that might not be included in the list.

Thanks! ;)

Here's my RHD 1997 80 with the grab bar. By the way it is still rock solid after 202,000+ kilometers of the PO's and my family swinging from it...

David,

Is there the "vent" that Rick (landtank) is speaking of behind where the bar is attached? Or perhaps because your rig doesn't have the passenger side airbag it's routed differently.

No biggie if you can't get to it. ;)

Mot
 
I'll check it out in the AM. My glovebox has been flopping around, need to get up in there with some loctite anyway.

I know my AC is port installed, likely even dealer installed, so things may be different back there...(better disconnect the batteries before I go fishing around!)

David
 
Thanks David!

If you don't get around to doing it for a few days don't worry about it, OK? Please don't feel like rushing. :)

Good night! (We're in the similar time zone, right? ;)

hobbes,

I've been meaning to start a thread about my stuff, including ladders for the 80 (and 100) series Cruisers.

I have the pictures of them taken already. But I need to take pics of the other stuff I have.

Please stay tuned!

Mot :)
 
Just an update (or lack thereof).

As the list on Page 3 indicates, about half of the people have paid. So I am thinking about placing my/our order(s).

If you can PayPal the amount to: motoomi@yahoo.com that'll be great. This method will allow me to charge you a little more for shipping IF it weighs more than 1 kgs (hope not). But I will take checks and money orders.

Also, if you have requested me to quote you on other items I am offering and I have ignored you, please let me know (I didn't mean to...).

And lastly, absurdum80, please clear your PM box, I tried to send you a PM asking your interior color. You can just post here or PM me the info if you are still interested.

Thanks guys!

Mot
 
My apologies if I've made you feel like I've forgotten about you. :frown:

The list on Page 3 has grown to 18 guys altogether :eek: and one of you have asked me to pick up the pace since he has taken his dash apart ;)

So although I have received about only half of the payments, I have decided to pull the trigger and order them. So if you back out now I'll curse you forever!!! :grinpimp:

I might have stated this before, but the non-airbagged dash bars are out of stock and will take 2 weeks or more to get in. So I should be getting the airbagged dash (post Jan. '95?) bars first.

The above-mentioned individual was generous enough in shelling out the extra $$ for my shipping so those of you who have dual airbags should get the bars, I'm hoping, by the end of next week. (Don't quote me on this though).

Anyway, I know that some of you are intersted in getting other parts too, such as the OEM side-marker assemblies and stuff. There are two types listed (pre/post '92). Post '92 are cheaper, but don't know why.

So I've placed an order for each of them and see what the difference is (if there's any), before ordering more.

If I am supposed to get back to you with quote on other items and their shipping, along with the "bar" please remind me kindly. I've tried to go through my PM's, but I'm not the best-organized person or anything. :crybaby: My intentions are good, but... :frown:

Anyway, I will let you know of the progress here.

Thanks again!

Isn't this exciting??? :rolleyes:

Mot ;)
 
Woohoo
Im the only one with a gray interior 95+ truck
I'll be the only kid on the block with a grab handle for the Cruiser :princess:

Thanks again Mot for putting this together :cool:

Todd,

As always, it is my pleasure to take your hard-earned $$ from you. :grinpimp:

Mot ;)

BTW, if you guys are PayPal-ing me, please include your Mud handle name and your phone number, along with your address (No. PO box as it probably will not fit in one).

Thanks again!

Here is an update!

I am expecting three bars to be arriving on Tuesday (two gray and one tan for the '95 and after dash), along with some other garbage.

One of you have your dash taken apart and have paid extra so that's why I am having the two separate shipments come in, instead of having to wait for all of the bars/parts to arrive to my parts guy and have one shipment to save on the shipping charges.

Anyway, so three of you (including the aforementioned eager beaver) should be receiving your "bars" either later this week or the first part of the next week.

Anyway, thanks for your patience and let me know if you have any questions or (nice:rolleyes: ) comments.

Thanks for your patience!
