:idea: If you and the Wife get good at this DIY stuff , here's your next project

Just a hint for DIY project , the front is held in place with an aluminum "C" channel ( the same used to hold awnings on RV's ) which is fastened to the box front . The cover has a full width loop sew in with a plastic rod inserted in the loop . To install , just feed the front loop into the "C" channel , then attach the sides & tail-gate velcro strips . Speaking of velcro , let the strips set for no less than 48 hrs. at room temp. or you will be doing it again very shortly , I had to learn the hard way , just to impatient . :cheers:

too late, I'm in full Black-Ops/Ninja gear, creeping back home, with it in my duffel bag right now :wrench: Nothing to see here folks, move along please. :yes: :clapping: O K whoever swiped my bumper ,please return my spare keys & license plate Please :rotf:

:brows: "SURE-TRAX" bed mat/ bladder ( with baffled anti-surge compartments ) adds up to 300 lbs. of water for great traction , pull the plug when winters over , yur done. BTW there is room for freezing expansion and you can put up to 500 lbs. on top with out damaging the mat . :thumbsup:

Oops , I thought the shot was of the main glass :doh: The vent glass does have a small amount of adjustment at the 2 screws on the outer door .

:wavey: I bought the tonneau for my short-bed back in 2006 @ " Canadian Tire " they have a general listing based on box length . I'm sorry I don't remember the mfr. , but I imagine you could find same & J C Witney or the like .I made up 3 cross bars from elec. conduit pipe to avoid having a duck pond in wet weather :thumbsup: Gord

Here's an economical tonneau cover , attaches with velcro , about $ 100

:huh???: My '90 has separate horizontal & vertical pieces , could you do another shot panned back ?

:agree: That's the brand most trim shops use ( remember " Unique Whips " :rotfl2: ) It's pricey though .

Common sense

As a romantic old soul , I wish you happy times , peace & fulfilment :thumbsup:

:thumbsup:

Been there , no fun.....Drilled a hole carefully next to the flat side of the nut on 2 sides , then PB'd into the holes and punched inside the outer loop , more PB . Then it was tighten , PB , etc. until finally a small movement , wire brushed the threads , PB and work in & out until nut was freed . You could also buy/rent a "nut-splitter" . Good luck

Yes the speedo hook-up is the same . Easiest access to adjust the tach is by removing the speedo from the cluster , you can then access the adjuster screw with the engine/tach running easily :wrench:

Can you elaborate? I have the 2.5 and someone swapped the cluster and I think the tack is off. What to look for? :idea: Hook up a hand-held tach and compare readings ( Adjust potentameter as required ) to state the obvious :hmm:

It's not really that hard ,forum search for all the info ,buy the parts , give yourself a time-line and just do it . After all you still have the shade tree mechanic fix( current situation) to fall back on , owning a MJ isn't for the faint of heart......" Cowboy up "......enjoy the the ride :cheers:

I think the early S-10 is the same as the MJ :cheers:

Trans fuse , connector plug , ground behind L tail are the usual culprits :brows:

:yes: Absolutely , I do 80km daily :thumbsup:

Check under your floor mats , could be wind whistling through MJ's famous rusty floor panels :yes:

:agree: The best device I know of is at the end of your right leg :peek: ( ps , born 1947 )

I'm not really set up to do this job myself . So question is ,best parts to use & shop labor time to install all 4 ball joints ? :dunno: Any and all advice welcome...Gord

:agree: I use a "Trax mat" water bladder in the bed ,filled during winter weather & a little common sense . Gets me through pretty much any kind of foul weather back road conditions . Although chaining up early before you get stuck is a good precaution as well . :thumbsup:
