Get some weed eater refill wire as stiff and thick as you can find and open the sunroof and run the wire through the drains to push crap out. That's what I did and it fixes the leak I had.

Thanks. I searched around on MUD and took another look and came to the same conclusion.
 
McCain Spring

I took the 80, dog, and my daughter camping with some friends out in Anza Borrego last weekend at McCain Spring. This location is upstream from well-known Fish Creek Canyon. I apologize for the mediocre pics.

Rolled 293k.

Did the oil and diff fluids, then got a new toy and some drawers...

I loved the OBA on my troopie and had to have something for the 80.

Plans are to eventually divorce the compressor from the tank and find a sexy way to mount them in conjunction with the drawers.

Anyone have this type of tank mounted externally while retaining the spare underneath? Not a fan of tire carriers.

I just put the HIR bulbs in the headlights and the difference in brightness and whiteness is instantly apparent and rather stark. Great upgrade. I also put upgraded brighter bulbs in all tail light positions, plus upgraded 6w 194 bulbs in the front markers as well as in the doors. The 6W 194 change gives about double the light output of the stock 5W 194 bulb. Below the door it comes in handy when you're out in an unlit area and drop your keys or something on the ground. I got the HIR's from Amazon and the rest from Daniel Stern over at Candlepower. I put the "Stage 2" 6W 194's in all my cars that take the small wedge bulb - 194, 168, W5W, etc.

If you send D. Stern an email stating what car you have, he'll send you back a list of anything he has that will work in your car for higher light output in each position.

Brought my 96 TLC (and a service special coupon :clap:) to the dealership for front and rear brakes service. Once completed, tech drove it to the waiting area and I got in and drove off. Drove 100 feet and...wait..wtf?!...someone bent and broke my power antenna :mad:...guess who washed my vehicle and forgot to lower the antenna....guess who is buying me a new antenna? Pain in my a**.

I tore my Puma apart last weekend and started mock ups to mount it in the pass rear quarter panel. It's going to require a good bit of modifications and will be extremely tight!!!! If it successful I plan on doing a write up.

I plan on mounting my tank on my MetalTech slider bracket.
