  1. I have discovered that the leaks are specifically engineered to stop components under the hood from rusting! Tha being said, its guaranteed that I will never have any rust under my hood.. I call it my custom protection coating:D
  2. Hmm . thanks for the heads up on the EA82 stash.. I was just down there a couple of weeks ago. Must have missed that yard(it was a sunday. They were probably closed).. Is that on the same strip as dismantlers 2000? I just noticed that Caboobaroo has "electronic ignition" listed as a mod on his 79 wagon.. you might want to shoot him an email and see if he has any info for you.
  3. That sounds like lotsa fun.. Pic page doesn't work though:( We need a good multipurpose ORV park somewhere near Dallas.
  4. Thats great Todd! Sorry to carry this OT, but what yard was it?.. That is, if you can divulge your secret... Oh yeah... Bump!
  5. I paid 170 for mine.. disc, pressure plate, TO bearing and alignment tool.
  6. Well mike, we are very glad that you don't have a trip computer to deal with. all of that terrible storage loss would be tragic:brolleye:
  7. Thats right bradd. Its all about the value of your word. I have had great dealings with board members. Buying selling and trading. All because the word of both parties involved were solid things which one could count on. I have noticed that the person ( Out of respect for the mods, I won't say his name) that cole98 was referring to has only been back to the board once since he completed his deal.. and that was just to inform everyone the deal had been completed. The unfortunate lesson being, be careful of short timers and fly by night members. Watch the other dealings of people you're considering transactions with. Someone like Qman or XSNRG.. they are the ones that do a lot of business on the board, so their dealings have to be on the up and up
  8. Sooo.. uhh .. that was priceless secret information.. at least worth one roof rack
  9. It will bolt right in, but you have to cut out some of the back of the cubbyhole for clearance for the box, or use the console piece from the 88.. also, the wires a little too short to just move the box down, so I had to reroute the wires a little, and relocate the actual control box under the dash(behind the glove compartment.. sounds a lot more complicated than it really is.
  10. Ok.. I have to ask.. How much would shipping be to 75070?
  11. One possible way to check if you are running lean is by pulling your spark plugs and checking their condition.. all white and crispy indicates a lean condition. One of the most common causes is an intake vacuum leak. The absolute best way to tell is by hooking up an A/F meter.
  12. Thats the beauty of the way I did it.. all the parts are stock soob.. 88 GL-10 trip computer was mounted down below.. so I just got all the mounting stuff from an 88
  13. Actually, thats not true.. there is at least one other stupid question.. goes something like this.. "Does this make my rump roast look too big?"
  14. Are you talking about the part with the buttons or the part under the dash that actually makes it all work?
  15. Nope. 14 inchers. i checked.. I thought they were metric at first glance.
  16. The only whining I hear when driving is usually from my wife because I am going too fast Usually front wheel bearings will make a noise when pointed in a specific direction.. the noise will cease when the wheels are turned the other direction.
  17. Hey .. uhh . just in case no one told you, those things are supposed to be round . Glad you are all ok.. Meeky. Good show on not hitting the dog.. If he isn't claimed at the shelter, take him home
  18. Having that rear sway bar makes a big difference doesn't it? My last wagon didn't have it.. This one does.. even though its a little higher off the ground than the last one, it still handles better.
  19. Sorry brian.. the LSD's are 3.7 for 80's ea82 soobs.. I believe( not sure on this one ) that the FT4WD 5 speed XT6 had an option of a 3.9 LSD.. but I could be wrong.. I do know that the RX's and GL-10's and such that came with an LSD were 3.7 though
  20. Just pull the little black trim pieces off from both sides of the glass, then there are 2 or 3 nuts, 10mm I believe, on each side. Just be sure to put the shims back in the same as they were before. While the glass is out, that is an excellent time to clean all the crap out that accumulates in the sunroof area and can stop it from sealing.
  21. Those are cool.. you should give it a good home before it gets crushed
  22. it should be right under the steering column.. I have had 2 87 GL-10 wagons and they were both there.. Your car wouldn't perchance be a carbed GL would it?.. maybe one without a computer?
  23. Peugeot.. in reference to the peugeot wheels.. The only readily available / straight bolt on wheels for old soobs that are bigger than 13 inches.. Theres a couple of odd ones I have never seen at the yard in dallas.. may have to give them a good home
