I was able to tap the plug in with no problem. That was a relief. There is an explanation in the split case thread.
I also got the passenger seat mount modified so I could get the seat belt mounted to the original mounting hole. The paint is drying on that.
I discovered user error on the electronic speedo so I think that is sorted out
I found a buddy of mine is off next Wednesday so he is going to help me get the truck down to the exhaust shop.
So it looks like just putting the seat mount back together and bleeding the brakes again this weekend we will be hitting the open road!
Oh, and the resistor for the heater is back ordered until January

Where did you find the resistor? I thought the factory one had been discontinued

Yep. I did not ask Beno since I heard it was discontinued so I turned to MUD.
So I looked at this thread:

Which lead me to this one:

All of that led to the purchase of THIS

Bleeding my own brakes

She did exactly what she was told! She is good at the pumping.
I had forgotten to adjust the mechanical adusters on the rears and could not figure out why the brakes were so spongy
In other news, the Michigan doors have been disassembled for refurbishment.
The driver's side is going to be a challenge.

You must have missed something. I re-did the doors fire the Mule a couple years ago. They were red.

The part around the lock was much easier to fix than I thought it would be. Since it is a soft top I am not going to bother putting a door lock on there.
That other spot is oil canned like a bitch and I am not having success in defeating that.
