Yeah I can understand that. But no truck will get the gas mileage that the suby can/will!!! And it's an old suby, you'll be unique, especially on this side of the country!!

That all depends on how much he wheels it!!

That's awesome! I wanna do it!!

Yeah I religiously check and fill my coolant!! I don't let it get low enough for that to happen! But I will definitely be doing something to fix it when I have more money!

Can't say much, you're more than welcome to search. But here is his old suby... http://www.cardomain.com/ride/3047150

I don't know if posting dead animals is allowed or not? I would maybe ask one of the mods or admins first. But I would like to see it! Thats a big one!! My dads a taxidermist so I get to see a lot of nice animals!

Yeah I wouldn't continue to drive it. Oil smoke is not good to be coming out of the engine. There is a chance that the turbo went and that it's leaking oil down onto the exhaust, but still I wouldn't continue to drive it. Get it checked ASAP

Heat shield on the exhaust rattling and the whirring is most likely a rear wheel bearing

Yeah I tried a cap off of another car and it still did the same thing. And the cap that I tried still works fine on the car that I tried it from! So I'm guessing mine is all head gaskets:-\

It should twist off

I see nothing at all now

I'd stick with the EA82 radiator! Thats what I have and I love it!!

You'll be able to get most parts from the store. I still go to NAPA and get any "new" parts I need. But obviously when it comes to body parts and trim etc. you'll have to search for that.

Yeah my step-dad comes to Texas every year and goes wild boar hunting! Really good meat!!

When and if your brake lines fail always remember that your e brake is mechanical and will stop you very well!

Nope I think the lengths vary, it depends on where they bolt through the water pump.

or I bet if you even tried sealing it up with some exhaust sealer stuff that might work

I have the same thing happening in my RS. I guess it's has something to do with the headgaskets. But also check the radiator cap

I've used bars leak with good results. I wouldn't use it as a permanent fix but it seems to work pretty good

Looks pretty good! You gonna paint it? The lowrider graphics are cool!

Nope it's just straight back and forth. You might not have it. If you have the EA81 motor, it wouldn't be too difficult to swap a dual range in. A 4 spd dual range would be a direct swap, but with a little more work you could put a 5 spd dual range! Take some pics, maybe we could tell if it's dual range or not.

I'm sure someone can get you one. If I had one or could get one, I'd hook you up.

That's ok it's all the same shifter. If it has dual range the first "click" will be 4WD hi and then the second will be 4WD lo, or something along those lines(I know its a little different in Gen 1 cars)

There would be a sticker next to the 4WD lever that said dual range. I think if you have the 1800 motor than it should be dual range. Not positive though. If you only have single range than you will have a very hard time on trails especially if you put large tires on.

my idiot light doesn't work either
