I had never heard of fluid film until about 4-5 years back & even then didnt believe in it. changed my mind once I used it, bolts no longer fuse together with rust.. paint doesn't flake off when corrosion gets behind it. just stinks like a farm for a few days but other than that its good stuff...

company truck went to the shop to look into the 6.6 duramax head gasket problem. drove my rusty beater pickup during the day for work after dropping off the work truck. my truck lasted about 6 hours before the exhaust manifold to catback triangular pipe flange bit the dust and left me with a...

been a work in progress past two weeks or so, all started with the common soft top rear window zipper pull being worn out and pulling apart in my hands. so much for the use of the bristle brush/zipper lube from bestop. so the soft top is useless once again... I have two fabric tops from...

Its only fun until your back home underneath and shits falling in your eyes.

🤷‍♂️ they happen. wouldn't be as much fun without them. possibly within the next few weeks we may be up around the area again, could let you know. were just idling around on the sandy two tracks avoiding the muddy spots.

Met up with @matkal and putz around southern west branch for a few hours today, fall colors are in their prime. gained several pinstripes in the paint.

not sure to answer your direct issue with the clicking, but I can confirm I have had clicking and the intermittent sense of something binding then clicking when pressing the clutch since replacing the clutch master and slave on my NV3550. some days mine is silent other days I might get a click...

Been getting a clicking when turning past few months, knew there was a little play in the front universal joints though. Recently moved to a new place with a 33’ wide by 23’ deep garage and have the room to work on the bigger jobs vs the old place with a garage barely big enough to get the jeep...

dorman 21158. my local oreillys & auto zone HUB location a few towns away shows it in stock

Todays pickup. nothing special, but always handy. some small jewelers files, feeler gauges and a Japan special tap and die set.

Bad news on the vise, its been well used and abused. spindle nut threads are nearly non existent. not a common brand nor common spindle nut type. looks like im gonna have to cross my fingers and talk with the machinist down the road.

figured id start a thread on what tool you just picked up. dont know much about it other than its been in grandpas barn for as long as ive known. gonna do some research tonight. grandpas at the unfortunate point of realizing he has have junk.. but its good junk. took a little persuasion to...

I may have misunderstood but I have not seen any mention of trektop. "straps and hooks" im under the impression of the sails and plastic wedges that fit under the tub lip. your probably correct. I hear soft top and I assume the typical oem style.

worn out notched pad slides on the steering knuckles causing the pad to hang or worn brake hose? id agree with the temp gun approach.

lord, took me the whole day to just to strip the interior and put it back together. was wishing I had my spot cleaner to get the seat fabric which is at my dads place a hour south. figured out I could pull the seat fabric with the foam but once I learned the fabric was held on with hog rings I...

I’d kindly have to pass on that offer 😂 I’m hesitant to even take a dirt road for a few weeks.

I have the same issue when folding back the front portion. I have since ignored using the "sunrider" position, roofs either all the way on or all the way down for me. one thought is to adjust tension on your roll bar pivot point for the soft top by moving it away from the roll bar one hole...

im betting your due for a replacement opda. if you were to remove the cover and wiggle on the shaft im betting it will rock from side to side due to the retaining bearings in the assembly being shot from age/wear. its a easy repair that for whatever reason some people think its a difficult...

doesn't hurt to ask, some people jumped the gun because a starter is pretty basic. you gotta start somewhere though & to understand you gotta ask. if I didnt grow up under someone who searched for old fixable broken junk at yard sales id probably have no idea what it is either. little by little...

stripped the interior to clean.. in a narrow small car garage. washed the tub with soap water, tossed the roll bar fabric in the washer with warm water and tide which cleaned up like new. reinstalled the roll bar fabric while damp. vacuumed carpet and reinstalled. cleaned the seat mounting...
