What Did You Do with Your 80 This Weekend? (45 Viewers)

[OffRoadScott]

New forward o2 from a vendor. Went in perfect on my 95’, i soaked my studs/nuts 3-4 times in the ladt week with “screw-loose” and it came off without heat or stress. Seriously easy..... hope it improves my mileage.

Why didn't you replace both of them?

 

[NLXTACY]

You put those mirror tiles under the truck when you go to SEMA don’t you?

wait, is that wrong?

 

[on3i11s]

Hauled the dirt bikes for some trail riding. If the bikes break down the cruiser is always ready

 

[mulchiro]

Replaced some leaky brake lines and decided to do a full fluid flush while I was at it...glad I did. One of the bleeder valves seemed like it was still closed even though it was loosened. Then a bunch of debris from god knows what finally came spewing out with the fluid.

thanks man. I'm looking at it's twin, Bowfin. And I started out looking at the IKamper mini but the price is a bit much for what you're getting. The torro has a deal for 3k and that includes the annex, the awning, and winter insulation. Plus they almost look identical, inside and out.

You might want to look at Bush Country RTT

I sure hope you are being forced to come up with a dual filler neck solution since they are so hard to find

I think @OTRAMM is making something like that...either a dual filler neck or replacement for the original filler. He's got it jigged up so even if it was only the main filler he should be able to whip up the dual option.

See if one makes a difference

I was but I can't justify spending $5k plus after taxes on a tent even though I love everything about that alpha.

@GW Nugget CUSTOM ORDERED 2" Front 80 tapered wire coils.

585mm/575mm 12 wraps 12.5mm to 16.5mm 250/190 rate

I've had that happen to me as well. Removed the bleeder all the way and let a few ounces of fluid pour out of the caliper to flush it out while i rinsed the bleeder screw.

 

[TRAIL TAILOR]

4" tapered wire TourFlex coils arrived for testing.

@TRAIL TAILOR ...what are you doing for shocks?

@TRAIL TAILOR ...what are you doing for shocks?

I'll run a 6" TD shock with the black coils. They are going on my 100 SAS conversion. I'm not playing in the rocks and I don't need every bit of travel that most guys try and get out of a shock. I'm after ride and handling on medium trails.

Ride and handling are exactly what I am going for too...but I only need a slight lift about 2" on my 80. Interested to see how these work for you.

I have the 2" and 3" 80 series TourFlex tapered wire in production now. I've sold around 340 pair between the 80, 100 and 200 series (mainly 100) I have a total of 140 pair finishing up at King Spring in Australia soon.

2" ( since this pic I added approx. 1/2" on the front free height)

 

[NotSoFast Lane]

Little Stuff, but its the little things that count. Found a guy up in Prescott parting out a 94 and picked up what I needed to spruce up the interior and a front bumper.
Finally installed the pioneer 6.5" in the front doors.
Replaced:
Front Door panels and handle cups
Passenger window switch panel now MATCHES!!!!
Speakers are surface mounted and have plenty of clearance - Pioneer TS-165P (not a fan of the grates)
Drivers seat belt
Front Bumper
Here's some before and after:
