this past Sunday and Monday I installed new coolant hoses thru out in conjunction with a repaired bleed nipple on radiator. New water pump and crank seal while I was there. Found a few bolts missing and a leaky water pipe o-ring behind the alternator.


3 drain and refills on transmission with a new filter on final refill.
Transmission shifts much firmer now.


Still have two dead O2 sensors even though I replaced all four. Assuming I have a faulty ground on the two DOA's. Anyone know what color the ground wires are so that I can test that?


A/C condenser fan on order and fixing the A/C is next on the list.

 

You might also try bench-testing the "dead" O2s to help the diagnosis.

Based on my read of the electrical diagrams and RAVE the O2 ground wires are red with a black stripe.

 

New steering guard and front and rear diff guards.

 

Info on the steering guard please?

 

For those asking:

It is a BRITPART model DA2249. At LR Direct https://www.lrdirect.com/

Nice. Will have to look into them. I dropped my headliner off at the shop today and having it recovered in black instead of tan. If anybody is in the bham area, they are located in Pelham and it's only $280 for the standard d2 headliner with dual sunroofs and standard colors. I can give the number if anybody is interested.

 

Can you post a photo from the front of the truck, looking straight at the car? I'd also like to see a shot of the terrafirma one. Can't decide if I want one. I like the 'naked' look from the front.

 

 

Working on putting my extended brake lines in. Are the longer lines for the front?

 

Front disconnects installed. Rears next.






Need to figure out how I'm going to install the strap on the driver's side still. Frame hole I used on passenger side is in use on driver's side. Can't just attach it to the plastic dust shield as the straps support the sway bar and hold it out of the way when disconnected.
