some of these are crazy impressive! stopmotion isn't dead! https://www.youtube.com/c/JDBrickProductions/videos

if they sold that as an AX-15, I'd go get my money back. but yes, you can swap it in too. fingers crossed that it's not bad. just don't waste any money rebuilding a peugeot.

the glass sits in the window frame, the frame is glued to the truck. the rubber trim needs to be removed first. and the interior trim pieces like the B-pillar panels can get damaged accidentally if you don't pull them first. it's all pretty easy for a pro. kinda a pain in the butt for us normal people. plus the consequences of screwing it up are kinda expensive. do you have the removal tool? (essentially piano wire with handles)

4bangers were always 21 spline. the peugeot was always 21 spline. the AX-15 was always 23 spline. the AW4 was 21 spline 87-90 and then 23 spline after that. if the AX-15 started out as 21 spline output, I'm going to need some hard evidence to believe it.

that might be a hiccup in their system. my 87-90 factory parts manual doesn't list anything like that that I can see.

um, looks like we're planting a crop of box turtles in the backyard.

did you bench-bleed the master?

generally speaking, they smell different. and they feel different between your fingers. but I'm not sure if that's something that an owner can determine from a couple drops. the important thing is that the leak is fixed.

silver shortbed $600 easy fix for a body shop to pull.

Red shortbed. not a lot of pics because this one apparently got stored before I snapped any. or I misplaced them. who knows. I'll work on that (it's kinda buried). this is the bed that fell on me and tried to kill me. bedliner not included. $500 a body shop should be able to fix this, or you can wait for Key Parts's patch panels.

dark blue shortbed. excellent shape save for the dent. any body shop can pull that back to straight. $500 if I remember right, a tree fell on it. I should be able to carve a patch panel from one of my wasted beds.

White longbed $600 definitely some bondo on the lower rear pass side. Key Parts is developing patch panels for the lower rear bits.

take your time and you'll be fine. working on your truck is the best way to get to know your truck. just don't put the grille back on upside down.

which tools are you missing? because if you don't have a torx bit set, you should go get one. there's a lot of the little buggers in your truck.

pull the stuff out of the way and have someone rev the engine a bit while you watch the suspect area. but on the other hand, a new radiator is never a bad idea. you don't need anything fancy, just one that's well built.

it's amazing what some hot glue and paint will do. these are the busted up tails I've had on the trailer this entire time (I'm not putting nice things on the back of the trailer until I get it to a car show). inspired by a painted pair I just sold, I bought some black and clear and started gluing them back together. after bringing the tails into the house I discovered a wasp in one. she was unhappy about that, but I took the housing outside and she flew off. her nest was not so lucky. they look fantastic from 20 ft. I assure you, these are horrible tails. but regardless, weather permitting I hope to get them installed in the morning.

---------------------------------------------------------- this time around I'm putting all my beds in a single thread with a basic pic and then a pic of the worst damage spots. if anyone is interested in a particular one, I've got many, many more pics of each I can then email you. CC shrinks the quality on everything anyways, so email will get you the maximum detail. prices include delivery. there are 2 longbeds and 2 shortbeds up for sale at this time. a minimum $200 deposit is required via paypal. $100 of this is NOT refundable should you back out for any reason. None will be returned should you back out after I load up the beds on the trailer. all will be refunded if I have to back out for any reason. unless I die... then I guess you're kinda screwed. (sorry 'bout that in advance.) the remainder can be paid in cash or paypal and is due at delivery.

oooooooo..... lots of good stuff on that page!

@eaglescout526 this part number is a renix era, right? sure looks renix to me but is listed as a 91-96. https://www.ebay.com/itm/195175113894

I win. the winning move was to just sacrifice as many drill bits as needed. the sale of a tail can buy replacements.

holy crap does this photo take me back. don't even remember how many went through my hands. 20? more? I had like a dozen in the garage at one point.

a lot of recycling/junkyards will sell used cars too. especially if they realize it's worth 4-5 thousand bucks.
