Bench testing (indoors, warm/dry, good lighting) with a 24V source and drill hooked up like you said. Great idea.

Two possibilities come to mind. 1 - is the sender drive off the block working? Does is spin when the engine's running? Not 100% sure how you'd test this, but I don't think oil's going to spray out under pressure if you run the engine without the sender connected. 2 - something's wrong with...

My sender was toast. Before buttoning everything up, I ran 24 jumpers to the tach, and jumpers from the plug-end of the new sender. TNriverjet was kind enough to send another tach on the suspicion mine may have been faulty - it wasn’t - I offered to send it back, he asked me to “pay it...

Not going to name names, but there’s a guy on epay who sells under a name very much like the common name for “Canis lupus” who sells a lot of Chinese crap. I got stuck buying some. Many hours of filing, fitting later, the parts worked after a fashion. He sells it all - generators, starters -...

Almost digital multicam. I like it. Would like it better if it were greener (less sand). Kudos to your efforts. After all those years of painting the bedroom, the kitchen, dining room, basement, etc., based on just one little playing card size color sample and hating the color after many...

There are tricks to getting freeze plugs out - I don’t know them or I’d have put a block heater in already. My brother was a jack of all trades, welder/mechanic among them. I watched him pull drain plugs by welding a bolt to the center and use a slide hammer - expedient if you don’t have an...

Schaefer Manufacturing Penetro90. https://www.amazon.com/dp/B00JF2LI28?aaxitk=QXarrNA0mZbl.icq6bZWNw&pd_rd_i=B00JF2LI28&hsa_cr_id=8130685170201 Neighbor of mine in Tennessee swears by Schaeffer products. He buys 'em by the case. He also leaves all his farm implements, tractors, tools out in...

Try buying a suppressor or other class III firearm sometime. Can you wait a year after plunking down, say, $25k for a late model Thompson SMG? NB (and, yeah, I got your sarcasm, just illustrating there are far worse hobbies wrt paperwork/entrenched socialist bureaucracies).

Improvise. Adapt. Overcome.

??? I’d love a 4-speed if for no other reason than to lessen long-term wear and tear on the engine. But if I were to go that route, I’d look into a 6.5 NA powerpack (engine, 4-speed, controller, 242 TC) first for “plug and play” (plus wiring harness), but I don’t have the desire, the time...

Faria. Faint "meniscus" at bottom of gauge comes and goes.

Two of mine are doing that with much less vapor. Bought a few months back, spoke with seller, just watching to see if more „dew“ shows up. Only there when I‘m driving, fades quickly.

never mind. copied/pasted the wrong number. Found ‚em, but for the same price as three hoses I can get an entire kit from etrailer - I‘ll call in the AM.

Just about to install a new(ish) wiring harness (looks like a chore), most all the packard connectors are rotted, broken down. Brake hoses aren‘t in much better shape. I‘d like to keep this trailer for a while. Anyone know who‘s got a set? Etrailer?

No joy. Can't get there from here (where I'm at). Odd. But I DID pull the caps, jack up wheel and bearings feel FINE, grease is clean, white, like it had the job done before being sent off to sit for a couple years before auction. Looking for brake HOSES now (all three rubber), and that's...

Macmotors has ‘em. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

I‘ve got a strong sense that the inside locking models are a local design. By looking closely at photos of them from epay it really looks like it‘s just something like a 1/4-20 wingnut and some washers. Maybe held in place with a rivnut or spot-welded nut. I might be wrong, too. Keep us...

Night of the living dead thread resurrection... How many of these kits does it take to seal all four doors? I‘m finding the rolls of foam, an occasional kit. This seems like it might be a better way to go than the OEM weatherstripping to cut out wind noise and/or reduce water intrusion...

Beauteous. Love the hard top. Drive on.

Gotta ask, 'cause I'm about to do the same with my Tacoma (pintle plus riser). There are a LOT of mfrs out there, reading similar complaints on some available through amazon and epay. I'm thinking - based on measuring at least twice - I'll need about 8" of rise, or the many-holed plate you're...
