10 mm on the battery is really a lottery, one of the weaknesses is the battery loom, if it hasn’t been upgraded already, those thin slip terminals should be chucked., and whilst your there, the power steering feed hose from directly below the reservoir, after 25 years, the rubber has deteriorated to the point, that it perspires steering fluid, if yours feels gummy to touch, it’s most probably the reason your pump area is wet. Took me a while to figure it out, a quality hose returned that side of block and hoses dry again.
As a long time fan and follower of yours, this video was particularly special. Some of my favorite videos were of you testing out/practicing with your pew pews. Seeing some of your current stuff is cool, and hearing about your stories from encounters or experiences you had in your life is awesome. It's like listening to an older brother talk, and it's so enjoyable. I wish RU-vid wasn't as suppressive, because it would be so cool to see what your irl loadouts would be if certain video games happened in real life. (COD zombies, 7 Days, Days Gone, etc.) Keep being you Meaty. You have a life long subscriber and fan in me.
hey Chris big fan I'm just starting the process of learning how to be an automotive mechanic I love off roading and putting my time and effort into learning more about making vehicles with off roading capabilities. love from WI
So question for you, Though I live in Iowa, I'm working my way around to different states and do overland trails, if I made it to your neck of the woods in Arizona would you be willing to make a trip with me on a local trail?
I find Backpackers pantry is above all other freeze dried meals. The stroganoff and lasagna is phenomenal for a quick meal. Mountainhouse is a solid 2nd choice.
Excellent video, you made this look easy. I have a diesel 80 so a bit different set up. The diesel FSM references the “No.1 crankshaft pulley” which I think is the same thing as the harmonic balancer. The crankshaft bolt on the diesel per the FSM is torqued to 362 ft/lb 😮. I haven’t done and lower end seal replacement yet but your video makes it look easy! Thank you for posting.
