Restored the grab handle bezel. New padded handle. I also tried using Velcro to attach the panel. Jury still out. I’ll probably use the clips on the other side.
I like that it's all oe based stuff thats easy to service or replace when needed. But, how does it compare to doing the Disco Tech conversion or buying said package from Dr Diff which is all oe Mopar based stuff. Same price, less, more?
Considering the cost of the door panels I decided to make them impervious to water damage. I sprayed the backside with Flex Seal spray. Then after it dried I glued a vapor barrier to the backside side.
Here is a thought I would like to throw out. As a former subscriber to the TDR[ turbo diesel registry], which is a quarterly publication that ONLY deals with Cummins powered Dodge trucks. One of their benefits was a separate listing/publication called The TDR Travelers guide[ may have that...
you could do a Dye penetrant test on the block and in the cylinders to see if it has a crack. You can do a DP test without having to take the whole thing apart.
It may be beneficial for you to install a PWM[ pulse width modulation] type of fan controller. Your current fans have a 30 amp rating. But...when they light off the load is probably closer to 50 which causes problems since its instant on. The PWM unit will make the fan/fans ramp up slowly so the...
Mine were leaking at the back inside corner of the right head.
I was using steel shim gaskets that had some rust after a couple of years and the block deck surface was really ruff.

Back in the late 80s I drove my buddy's early 80s Power Wagon from Vancouver, WA to Austin, TX. He had moved there and left it with me to sell. When it didn't sell right away, he asked if I would drive it down to him. He paid for fuel and bought me a plane ticket home. I made it without incident...
Thats another thing. These panels are not flat. There is a prominent angle in them at dead center from side to side
Most of the redone panels Ive seen it flattens the panel out. Thus, when u bolt one side on. the other side sticks up quite a bit Depending on the severity, it could crack when...
I think a pair of these gold plated billet wheels would look good on my part time ride, but they would cost more than my daily driver. I'm guessing the manufacturer provided them for free as a marketing move, when the actress was starring in a reality show. Now, she only uses them for red...
Mikey, another way of doing it is to use this if you need to extend the rod length. This is what I've used over the years. A lot of guys don't even know you can buy this part from Edelbrock.

Bill, I'll snap some for you later today. I had one of the Metro pieces on GTX number five, and the panel fit to the trunk lid was off as well. I'll dig out the 5000 mile original that came off the car for a comparison. I'm guessing the ribs got ground down because of pits on redone examples.
