What Did You Do with Your 80 This Weekend? (70 Viewers)

[bmac1996acc]

Easiest and fastest tent ever, and more durable than any I've had, meant to withstand 80mph winds in the arctic and the tubes have a thick skin to prevent popping.

Awesome! Now you can wake up to a deflated air mattress and a deflated tent.

Loaded up the Wife and the dog, and tried to avoid pavement for several hours on a beautiful Pennsylvania Sunday.

I put yet another Quick Steel patch on my y pipe. This time at the base of the O2 sensor bung. Replaced the O2 gasket too. Buggered one of the studs. Had to replace that too. But no more exhaust leak. For now anyway.

What sort of surface prep did you do before applying the putty?

I believe the radiator to be an original.. but don't quote me. The PO may have had it replaced, I can't be certain but here is the number you asked for: >PA66-GF30< Hope that helps.

used a cutoff tool with a wire wire too clean off the rust then hit it with brake clean. I used it before on a small hole in the cat. So far so good.

Drove to 8000' and slept under the stars.

Lots of them...

Well crap. I'm trying to figure out what radiator is in my rig. It looks similar to yours but #'s are slightly different. Mine says
<PA66 GF35>. Thanks anyways!

**ETA*** Just found out those numbers are what it's made of!
Apparently it is made up of: Polyamide (nylon 6,6), 35% Glass fiber. Its very strong and is easily bonded and welded - ideal for use in car radiators!

I will look for more identification tomorrow and get back to you. Sound like a plan?

 

[LFD2037]

I appreciate it but no need. It's apparently a different brand than mine. I appreciate the offer anyways!

Chased the cool weather down the cost to Big Sur riverside camping.

Spent the weekend up on the Rubicon with my sons recently graduated buddies. This trip proved to be harder than usual on the ole '94. The damage buffed out pretty well in about 90 minutes with some basic tools. I still need a couple tail lights though. One of front sway bar brackets tore loose from the axle. Never have a problem wheeling with it on but now I think it will always be removed prior to trails of the Rubicon sort. Next up is bed liner and some serious armor for those rear quarters. She ran the little sluice three times with out much drama. Sorry, no photos in the sluice, still waiting for them to be emailed to me by the guy who shot them.
I Spoke with three fellow Mud members. Was the first time I had seen 80's on the Rubicon besides mine. Obviously, I have never attended Rubithon. That's next year.

 

[AutoCraft Aus]

Fixed this after the CT26 let go [No 3]

And installed one of these gold things after modding the pump, Safari intercooler and 3" exhaust.

Where about in Pennsylvania did you go?

I spend a lot of time in the PA wilds (near State College), but this particular trip was backroads in Susquehanna County

 

[vapilotda]

Went dirt-roading with my kids and @vapilotda and his fam. Checked out some USFS roads, hiked in to a cool overlook, and hit Parkway Brewing on the way back into town.

My daughter thinking about the fact that she starts 7th grade in 3 days
