Very nice, which compressor did you go with?A major milestone in the life of my 80. I installed my new third members, replaced the birfs, rebuilt knuckles, installed high performance rotors and brake pads.
Thirds were upgraded with Harrop eLockers and 4:88 Sierra Gears. Brakes, birfs and knuckle kit were Terrain Tamer.
Thanks to Cruiser Brothers and Valley Hybrids for the parts and to Ken Francisco at gearinstalls.com for doing the setup on my locker and gear install. He even posted my project on his website. Harrop 488 Sierra Gear

I love the fact that I don't have to deal with a compressor on my 80. Next week I'll install the factory OEM locker switch. Clean install, no need for three more toggle switches.![]()

Last time I saw water crest the Glory hole was probably 93 or 94. If this rain doesn't let up soon and for a long while, there will be a market for bolt on pontoons in place of sliders.This hasn't happened in decades...

Well, Castrol super clean and hot water pressure wash, because A) head gasket time and B) it was +9C today, and it's February, in Canada.
Little cleaner now.

Then proceeded to tackle a "simple" start. Pull the plugs. Yeah right. Notice what's missing on the left? Two of them - guess where they are. How the F%* do I get those out so I can get the plugs out??

-(Tried crazy glue, didn't work)
-Kelly clamps are not long enough.
-compressed air doesn't pop them out.
- cursing doesn't have any effect
Gave up. Pulled the hood off and then went back to welding the megacheap turbo manifold for the BJ70.

Had the same thing happen to me on #6..Took me longer to realize this than I care to admit. But what works well is a long angled pick.jab it into the rubber and twist it out.
If you're willing to drive up from Portland(?), I'll definitely keep you in the loop. Heck, I'm sure we can plan something before that too. Plus we need another 'Jason' to take @Ridgemaster place since he's moving to Texas. I forgot, what are your thoughts on Texas @LS1FJ40?
Cheers,
