What Did You Do with Your 80 This Weekend? (53 Viewers)

[goshenite]

Thought I'd try cleaning my O2 sensors before throwing $$$ at new set. The 93 threw a code back in July. First did the fire & water method now soaking in O2 safe cleaner overnight. I will check before reinstalling to make sure they are in spec.

Pinion angle adjusted....no more driveline vibrations....View attachment 1145580

Did you set the pinion parallel or a couple of degrees lower? I did mine parallel and need to re do it after removing the spacer from my front.

Do you make it longer or shorter?

Installed a set of manual hubs. Then clearanced the center cap so it could be re Installed. I'll leave them unlocked until i go out then just pop the cap and lock them in until the run is done.

I changed the oil.

I never been off-road so I decided to do so.

I saw mud and was like I GOTTA GO IN THERE! I've seen people drive in mud on YouTube and thought I could do it! You know if you get stuck just turn left then right, drive the reverse. NOPE.

I got stuck no one was there with me to help pull me out and no cell phone reception! After 10 minutes (and thank god only 10 minutes) a Ford pickup appeared! He saved my ass. I got mud everywhere and cleaning is a ***** I now truly understand woody.

Tires. You need better tires to do what you attempted to do. IH8MUD for a reason......

Funny you asked. I've been following your posts. Same problem as you. I sit at 3.5 inch lift. And had some driveline vibes. I did caster plates in the front and a dc. Then rear dc and now the uppers. It's within one degree. With a load should be parallel. It rides smooth now. Plan is to go to 4 inch springs and I will adjust it again.

You probably have a different edition of the FSM. I do it differently than you do.

Nice work. I still have front vibes. OEM and DC are out of spec. Still fighting the good fight. I'll reset the rear to 1* less to level out under load. Thanks.

Did they weld the hanger to the cross member? Might be a pain to remove the tail section should the need arise.

Or you live in CA where nobody pays attention.

It's barely a "while you're in there" thing. The valve cover was leaking and I was frustrated so I figured there was no time like the present.

started to replace my front control arm bushings. dropped the passenger side anchor 1st.

bushings are toast.

i already have OEM bushings from Beno ready to go in once i figure out how to get the old ones out. i think i'll cut the rubber around the inner bushing sleeve and then make a cut in the metal outer sleeve to aid in the removal process. my 12 ton HF press cannot get them out as is.

 

[TDavidson]

That's how I did mine.

I drilled the rubber, knocked out the center, sawzall'd the rest of the rubber out, cut the outer sleeve enough that I could pry it inward & it fell out.
