Did you do the other little hose under the throttle body? If your PHH needed changing then chances so did the other one..I have yet to tackle that on mine but by all accounts it is worse than the PHH.
 
Attempted to go ice fishing. Saw tracks so thought the ice might be good. It’s been below zero with no snow for a solid week. Drilled a test hole by shore. 3.5”-4”. Then looked closer towards the middle of the pond.

Exercised the lockers instead. Played a little in the snow.

You can see the borderline open water in the distance. No thanks! Plenty of Winter left to ice fish!

I don't think MB USA ever officially imported the diesel one. Never heard or seen an official one here. Gray market, yes.
I would love an old school diesel, no DPF, no SCR.
Any pre-'02 gray market G-wagon is an incredible off-road vehicle. Arguably one of the best 4x4's of all time. Too bad to get one in the US now you have to pay out the ass.

Super easy when you do your head gasket:grinpimp:
 
OK.....Where'd you get the visors? and How Much? Used I assume.....or reconditioned?

My wife got them for me from parts.Toyotaofthedesert.com. They are factory new originals and she paid big bucks. 190 bucks each. But she was tired of the passenger side falling down. Get really good pricing from them and service is awesome. They're in California so shipping is quick and cheap for us too.

I'll buy your old ones if the DS stays up. My PS stays up, but the DS is at half mast. It ends up right where I'm looking all the time, so I took it out.

PM me how much for your old ones. But if the DS falls down even a little, I'm not interested.

The drivers side one is still good. I'll PM you.

Got the @pfran42 Leds put in, and I will have to find time when I get after this next trip to do some proper wiring to the rear. Maybe @NLXTACY has some quarter panel inserts by then because the more I tear into the back the more I see I could use the room.

If all goes according to plan it'll be end of Jan/beginning of Feb.

*Note: it NEVER goes according to plan. :(
