THE PORTAL HUB - Pinzgauers, Haflingers, Volvo 303s and more!

Yeah, I am still around but mainly on the dreaded Facebook sites. I, like many have used a variety of seats. There are very few direct fit so you will have to fabricate a bracket. I have recently come across several that fit and keep the slide in operation. My go to seat for folks looking were the H...

Would love to see how far you are installing the key in the switch. So many owners don't push them on fast enough.

I second just getting a new master. When I went to rebuild mine the bolt that hold the two halves together was busted. Of course no replacement available so had to buy as whole unit Brake light switch is just a VW brake light switch. Take with you tell them vw brake switch and they will match it onl...

Was another good time. The Tall Texan R V Resort was a fantastic base camp. Weather was awesome as would be expected. Great to see folks again. Next year we (the AZ guys) are hoping to make a substantial showing. Already starting to get newbies ready for the trip. Can't wait Until then, see some of ...

While I am on the subject of pinz outings. The calico mogfest is just around the corner. Check their website for details

It is that time of year again. The Rocky mountain pinzgauers are hosting their annual treffen. It is in gunnison Colorado this year. August 4 - 7. Check out their annotate for details

Look for "grip hoist" much better results. I have a jet brand that seems to work fine but the black rat unit gets far more use. With the number of vehicles and the circumstances around recovery I prefer the grip hoist to a vehicle mounted unit. Takes a bit more effort but has a ton more fl...

There is no tumbler in the pinz ignition switch. All the detent does is retain the key. A couple of scenarios, one you are not installing the key in all the way. The switch is worn out. The key is worn out. Some folks have way too many keys or items on the key chain for the detent to hold.

I lost one on mine some time ago. Found a suitable plug and all was good to go. Later when doing some work I found the original plug on the engine, how lucky

So who was KD. He made at least 2 front 2" receiver inserts. I have come across two just recently. Been in the community a while now and don't recall anyone going by those initials.

I first ran the Samlex converters when I got into the pinz. After replacing far too many of them I went with a few of the cheap chinese knock offs. My oldest one was installed in '06 and still going strong. I chose to tie into the power box behind the passenger seat as it is switched with the trucks...

I went to a smaller diameter years ago. Only requirement that I found is the pinz preferred a restrictive muffler over a free flow. No change in performance and no adjustments needed because of muffler change

behind drivers seat has served me well for years. mounted a tank on passenger side just in front of brake light mounting plate. Have even made a tank for one pinz that holds a bit more then my tank and placed in same location. Folks have mounted compressors in tight spots and have overheating issues.

the only reasonable answer I have heard for the Y straps is to help with canvas slapping. Not sure that it helps but it is the only answer I have heard.
