Today I went after it. Total nightmare.
I've got all the nasties separated at this point, and will be replacing a whole bunch of them.
I will also be installing some extra fusible links to avoid this in the future.
The only upside is that the wiring (from the po) has always been the weak link on this rig.
Time to set that right.
Oh Man! I wouldn't know where to start. Good luck with it.
Oh Mylanta! I know JMack is preparing for some heavy rewire work. Check out his build...
here is the video of it alittle long
it was beautiful up there very hard trail through but worth it to go.
So....I'm fixing 3 of my broken window gears, and brought one I suspected was the early type to work...only to discover it was the later type once I opened it up.
The structures guy at work took about 10 minutes to model the part. He had the new one on my desk this morning. Apparently there is a carbon fiber filament that he is hoping to use if this one runs the window without binding.
I know the brass is a better solution. I just wanted a fix for the early gear.. Thinking that was all I had.

LC Nut,
Nice, Did you clean and grease everything in the tailgate? I have a parts wagon and it was so gummed up and dirty, I don't think the brass one would of survived.

Just gathering parts right now. I'll clean everything out before I test it. I have to order some grease that is compatible with the new plastic.
He said it is about 35 cents in material, and the carbon fiber would be about twice that...somewhere near 75 cents.
Out of everything I have only one that still works.
I just assumed that all of mine were the early type, and I figured I'd be screwed if I didn't find a solution. I was surprised when I opened it up and it wasn't.

I got it fired up for the first time (for me at least and most likely in 12 plus years at least). Reading up on full tune up and timing again for the millionth time and then going to do said tune tonight and maybe even drive it around the block. So excited
Pugslybell,
Good Luck Man! Must be a nice sound, to hear it running.

Pugsleybell, congrats. It's a great feeling isn't it. Taking it around the block will have you smiling from ear to ear.
made some videos of my trip a couple weeks ago
cant get my 3rd out grenaded my spider gears on my last trip but bolt holding in the center section broke inside carrier. Any ideas?
You have to rotate the carrier somehow to get the center-pin free, have you tried a drift on the spider to see if they will rotate?
Tucker
it will rotate i unscrewed the bolt holding the pin in but it broke off in the carrier so the center pin wont come out ugh
