  1. A waterfall of diesel wouldn’t feed that thing 😳
  2. Sounds like your batter is dead or you need to clean the positive and negative terminals first.
  3. Could the speakers be wired backwards or one of the speaker wire backwards? This wld cause distortion
  4. Installed dirtbound off-roads front fender protection
  5. Luckily it cleared up after the valve cover 😳
  6. Valve cover gasket seams to have fixed the leak. Gonna drive it a bit and see what happens.
  7. Had an oil leak that became worse when the temps were around 80-90 degrees. I replaced the valve cover gasket and will be working on the RMS and oil pan as well. A lot of RTV was used previously 😳😳 was tough to remove. The oil pan looks exactly like it. Also replaced the missing oil plug seal. Hopefully this will remedy my leaks. Drops around a basketball sized area of oil on a hot day.
  8. I'm debating the drive up there, may speak with you about camping?
  9. Thank y’all for the recommendation! I live 45 miles from work. I’ll drive local a few days then take it to work for a week or so.
  10. First day driving it again. Have a few leaks. Will be pulling the valve cover and oil pan this week. It drives nice!! Seams to have enough power so I’ll be wheeling it soon.
  11. Two of my previous attempts at Moab when I was younger. I built the Scrambler when I was in my early twenty then moved to Charlotte. Sold it not long after moving. In my early thirties I bought a 77 landcruiser. I was about 70% done on the land cruiser when my son was born so I lost interest and sold it. I regret selling the landcruiser due to all the work I completed. Lost my tail on it!
  12. May have been discussed but I was having issues with my drivers side turn and parking lights in the front. My rear turn signals and parking lights worked. This weekend I pulled the C101 connector and the connector that attaches to the fuse box. This fixed both issues.
  13. Worked on the dirtbound off-road sliders this weekend. Also pulled the C101 and fuse box connectors. I'm almost ready to drive it again. My final pieces will be installing the axles and decide if I should rebuild the engine, possibly an exo cage at the cab 🤔. Hopefully the axles will be installed by winter. On track for Moab 2020 🤞
  14. UV doesn't damage POR15 other that fading it gray. That stuff it tough!!
  15. Nice Comanche!
  16. Fairly easy to complete. I did mine with a plasma cutter and followed up with a grinder. You've already clearance d them by the looks of it.
  17. Having issues with my front parking lights and turn signal on driver side. Rear lights work 🤔. Checked the fuse and it has me stumped. I switched to the newer front end and replaced the light sockets on headlights. Haven’t changed anything on the park/turn indicators yet. I added wire to the marker lights on each side. One bulb is missing on drivers marker light. Could it be that 😳
  18. I had a similar problem, kind of strange, I have an 88 with 4.0. Mine wouldn't crank (turn over but not fire) so I replaced the CPS, it cranked then but wouldn't run for more than 5 seconds. The CPS was a portion of the issue but the Fuel Pump Ballast was the issue once that was replaced. I'm not sure if an 89 has it but on the drives side fender look for a rectangle shaped white piece (in front of the airbox) with two connectors. pull the connectors and use a 15amp bus fuse to jump them. After the fuse was installed mine ran perfectly. I'm getting ready to delete the Ballast when I have a chance.
