I’m replacing calipers, rotors, brakes and e-hubs and have question about packing the spindle around the edges before putting everything back together. Would I pack this will moly or red bearing grease?

When ripping all my stuff apart it had been filled with red grease.

On the outside of the spindle you should have red bearing grease. If you pulled the spindle off however, or looked on the inside shaft of the spindle along the outer cv axle, you would see moly grease.

Watch this video. It is on an 80 series so I referenced the FSM for potentially different torque values and differences when you get to the freewheeling hub, but most is the same.

For the record, we recommend gear lube

I'm guessing Aquaphor doesn't supply that?

That's a great use of a pillar pod!

I couldn't fine a suitable place to install the gauges, and had the pod laying around. Luckily it fit in the space.

Are they clocked at a small angle for better driver 'at a glance' visibility?

Installed seatbelts in the back seat.

Not on purpose. The clamps that hold them in place would only fit in two positions, due to the shape of the pods. I'd have to glue them if I wanted them mounted "correctly".

not recent but forgot to post, fuel injection pump was rebuilt, replace fuel injection lines, replaced timing gears, timing gear cover, timing belt, water pump, radiator replaced along with hoses, speedo cable, Valve cover gasket and a bunch of other little parts + extra parts for current things in the works.

Wdyd today? I used it... for the first time since mid December. Fired right up.
