Ok cool. Sometimes I forgot to check the supplier on amazon, it's so easy to overlook. The parts are coming out looking great otherwise . Keep it up! -

That's one excellent method to paint bolts! The United States Postal Service, If it fits it ships a proud sponsor American vehicle restoration. The seller on that amazon link is: There is a good chance that kit is import rubbish that might not meet your expectations. I've used these cables below on my longbed and they fit and work well. Granted, I don't know if raybestos quality is any better than the link you posted, but just thought i'd let you know. One of these cables is for longbed only. There is a shorter shortbed version of one of the cables. I forgot which one. Parking brake cable cabin: RAYBESTOS BC93589 Parking brake cable rear: RAYBESTOS BC93591 -
92 The TowManche

That must have been fun to fit in the large head unit. Nice job. I was considering doing the same, but opted to go with the stock unit for now and later move onto a simple boat/marine based radio to keep the plane-jane look. One thing to note. If you used electrical tape on the steering wheel, I'd highly suggest wrapping it in bicycle handlebar tape instead. Something like this: https://www.trekbikes.com/us/en_US/equipment/bike-accessories/bike-handlebar-grips-tape/bike-handlebar-tape/bontrager-gel-cork-handlebar-tape-set/p/23110/?colorCode=blue I wrapped a bike handlebar with electrical tape once and majorly regretted it. Handles become a gummy mess within 30minutes of use. I did not enjoy this so I switched back to a rubber bike handle.- 129 replies

That is a genius way of moving the bed. I'm going to copy your methods when I get to cleaning and undercoating the back end of my '88. Excellent, excellent work. Keep it up! -
Oh boy. It looks like I purchased the Standard Motor Products DL-22 locks for my '88 comanche. I have to stop trusting rockauto on part compatibility. Now to check if mine have the tabs on back....

The Silver Bullet

Looking really good, especially with the extra rare louvers. IMHO turbines are the correct and only choice for the comanche. Can't wait for more of the restoration thread. -
Oracle LED tail lamp harness
Salvagedcircuit replied to eaglescout526's topic in MJ Tech: Modification and Repairs
Are the mating connectors still available on sites like digikey / mouser / newark / arrow? If so, I can imagine having an adapting harness would be beneficial. -
Oh yeah, that's it! Go Jeeper! Jeeper!

I'm digging the white walls on the turbine's. Nice. Looks pretty clean for the age! -
SRT Comanche build
Salvagedcircuit replied to ghinmi's topic in MJ Hardcore Tech: Epic Journeys to Greatness
Looking extra fly. Very nice color indeed. -
Just to confirm, this part is designed to replace the 4 way flasher, and works well with led lights? If you can elaborate on what it does and it's benefits that would be great Thanks.

Oh man, same color and length as mine! Nice!

Excellent work! A good reminder that I need to sort out my rear suspension and undercoat this spring. -
Oh man this is great. Did not know rockauto had promo codes.

AW4 Transmission Line Condition
Salvagedcircuit replied to Salvagedcircuit's topic in MJ Tech: Modification and Repairs
Here's a better photo. It definitely seems that my radiator was replaced and the captured nut was not free spinning on the transmission cooler line so the previous owner did what they could to remove it, but they bent the cooler line. -
Oof. Dude that's rough. I hope you're doing ok

It could be the steering gearbox bracket / spacer. For some reason, the triangular shaped bracket is a thin cross section cast part. When cast iron fails it usually creates a fatigue line and then snaps. Sometimes it releases stored energy and makes noise. Here's the direct link to what I'm talking about:

Yeah I really hope keyparts makes them available. I think it's fair to say that most folks had to fabricate something to make the seat work. One of my driver seat studs snapped off so I had to weld a bolt in it's place. I also had to weld the flange on the bottom of my bench back because the bottom flange dissolved

Yes indeed. Salt absolutely kills east coast trucks.
