  1. A couple recomendations for sunroof DIY # 1- mask the perimeter before sealing ( no messy clean up ) #2 do not use RTV silcone sealant / use polyurethane " Marine " sealant ( made for under water and much stronger adhesion ) Thats my $0.02 :cheers:
  2. Nice to see OPEC racing for something other than our wallets :rotfl2: :rotfl2: :rotfl2: :rotfl2:
  3. A better solution to staying warm at work ......Buy a re-chargable battery heated vest , I have one and it works amazingly well . 3 heat settings , warms up quickly then lower the setting , it will last about 10 hours . The distributor is in Calgary . It will cost you about $200 :thumbsup:
  4. The Hazards use the brake light circuit , so the over-ride is normal :thumbsup:
  5. Winter fuel has higher % methanol which also kills gas milage Too :smart:
  6. I used to work ranches a little south of that area , still go back a couple times a year to visit and ride with old friends at O.K. Cattle ( southern 1/2 of the original Gang Ranch ) in the Big Bar area. As a matter of fact , the avatar I use was taken at the Old Gang Ranch Corrals which is on Big Bar mtn. @ the O.K. summer cowcamp . The vistas from there are amazing . :thumbsup:
  7. The waggy front actually looked very good , The truck looked freshly painted , all red with black Eliminator side mouldings and aluminum Waggy grill/lights . Didn't catch what wheels were on it . We just gawked at each other at a 4-way stop ( 'til the horns began to blare ) :oops: Ya I've seen that ad , Currently looking at a couple 97-98 XJ 2 drs. as I need rear seats for twin grand-daughters car seats , planning to get them up on horse-back by the fall . There's no way Wifey will let me take her 4-motion on those Cariboo back roads .
  8. Practice at the Junk yard :thumbsup:
  9. Ya , they are few and far between here . More on the Island and Interior areas . I'm going to search the B.C. 4x4 club forum ( or ask Shawn up in Powell River) :cheers:
  10. On the weekend I saw a Red Eliminator with a waggy nose , moderate lift , super clean MJ . Any body know if he's a member ? Great looking truck :thumbsup:
  11. OK now I'm confused , which is the real Don ? The guy with the cigar or the one with the Bud' Bat ? :dunno:
  12. " Road Trip " in style , gotta luv it ! Congrats on MJOTM :cheers:
  13. Brake light switch bushings worn ? Insert a narrow screwdriver between switch and booster push rod , if you get lights that's the problem . A narrow thin shim ( fold to a " c" shape) will fix it :thumbsup:
  14. Yup , you can , doesn't fit perfectly , but pretty close
  15. :agree: Somewhat confusing ( versus "B/U" lamp fuse ) but true
  16. Here in B.C. we have "Air-Care" testing annualy / bi-annual for '97 and newer ( B.C. uses California Smog Spec.s) . Ever year I have the same situation during testing , they run it on the dyno , then another guy gets in and runs it again , the finally the Supervisor has a go .I ask him "what's the problem " , he replies the software must be defective because your truck's reading are way lower than factory spec.s for this model .......I patiently tell him the replacement catalytic converters are more efficient than the ones built 20 years ago , thus the lower readings . That should be a good thing , but your dealing with beauracrates ( no common sense allowed ) :fs1:
  17. Always tough to lose a partner .....but if you love them , let them go .....you did the right thing .
  18. :idea: Do your back-up lites work ? ( Also check trans fuse )
  19. :clapping:
  20. And yes the paint job on the truck looks good , but why would you paint your lady's chest army green 64 Cheyenne ? :wall: :wall: :wall: :wall: :wall: :wall:
  21. :???: By any chance , did you piss off one of these nieghbors ? Not to say that kind of vandalism is warranted under any conditions . FWIW Hot wire fencing circuit is cheap, relatively harmless and gets the point across :thumbsup:
  22. A real " Woodie " kit :yes:
  23. Well " Miser" your the author of your own dimise it seems :shake:
  24. Way too little info (lotsa guessing ) , hope the dice roll in your favour :huh???:
