RedPath88 Posted September 4, 2014 Share Posted September 4, 2014 Gave it an oil change and discovered that the Napa Gold filters that they sold me in place of the normal Bosch 3402's that I normally get, had the wrong thread... after I prefilled them with oil Had to run down to O'Reilly's and get a couple of the Bosch's.

Nefarious Posted September 4, 2014 Share Posted September 4, 2014 Fixed an open wire causing my keyless entry to cease locking the doors. Easy fix. just finished pulling most of the wiring to retrofit heated mirrors into my 92. Ran a conductor from the defrost relay normally open contacts and have it running up to the front to power the mirrors. I soldered on the factory connectors inside the doors so it plugs in like oem. Just need to finish pulling wires through the passenger door and it's all done. Yay defrosting mirrors! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rebelord Posted September 6, 2014 Share Posted September 6, 2014 Received my new intake parts from Alkorahil. Put them on this morning. Much better, the old intake rubber parts were broke, cracked etc. Plus hard as a rock. Here's the obligatory pictures: Old Parts New Parts: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Manik Posted September 6, 2014 Share Posted September 6, 2014 Fired up the Pathy to move a dead '92 Dakota around the yard to prep it for rebuild. The Pathy, in 4-low, drug the Dakota around like it wasn't even there lol. I've got to get time and funds to get back to working on the Pathy again... Pathy's have got some "grunt" for sure in 4-L!!

Quaintbucket Posted September 7, 2014 Share Posted September 7, 2014 Wheeled it a little yesterday. Topped up the coolant. Topped up the oil. Gave it a little gas. Measured my gas consumption. 12.7L/100km (18.5mpg). That can't be right.... Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

lerch641 Posted September 8, 2014 Share Posted September 8, 2014 *demands* I put it back on too early and smudged it a bit, so I'll take it off tomorrow for touch ups. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SkiBumBrian Posted September 8, 2014 Share Posted September 8, 2014 Very ingenious..... I knew there was another use for 4" ABS than, well, you know what I mean.... I take it you fed that into your airbox/filter? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kingman Posted September 8, 2014 Share Posted September 8, 2014 Nice Found a 1-1.5" around rust divot in my LR fender well. It's over 1/4" deep and I'm pretty sure there's more under what I can easily pick away. Think I'm going to prep the rust areas I can find and swing it by my step dad's so we can fix it all up. He's stellar with body work. Probably going to end up filling in and re-painting all of the fender wells. I now there's one minor spot under the rear seat and a bubble in the hood. Not bad for an '88 but still frustrating... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I take it you fed that into your airbox/filter? 3" PVC actually, only has a 3 1/8" OD so I can squeeze the flexible ducting over it. And I removed the airbox and put an inline filter (3" disc sorta thing), so I've actually got space for a second battery Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
stovanovich Posted September 8, 2014 Share Posted September 8, 2014 Finally got rid of the factory installed A/C Vents that were long busted and replaced em with some good looking bodykit grille. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nefarious Posted September 8, 2014 Share Posted September 8, 2014 Hey that looks really good. I like what you did with the vents there. How did you make the edges look so clean? Looks like you removed the vents and the surround trim. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lerch641 Posted September 8, 2014 Share Posted September 8, 2014 Agreed, looks slick with the steering wheel. I'm guessing the vents aren't directional anymore too? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Looks like you removed the vents and the surround trim. Yep exactly that, both the surrounds and vents themselves were pretty busted so removed the lot. I then cut out the shape to be slightly larger than the hole and bent the edges over so they just slid in tightly at the perfect size. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
