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

SOLD!

It was a tough decision to list it, trust me, took me about 6 months to decide. I just feel like if I am not using it let someone else enjoy it.

SOLD!

Recieved my muffler in the mail the other day. Its a really nice unit and looks like it will fit nicely.

Hoping to install soon, cant wait.

It had a slight bit of stick before doing that which has now been eliminated. I also found that the choke can be quite ...

I have been thinking about going and Im only about 2 hours way so I will most likely meet you there. Just need to check my calendar at work and see if anything is planned for that weekend....

In for 1, nice post. Now how do I mount this thing? Does anyone make a reciever for the front so I can get the reciever mount for it?

Also, are you just running 24v to it or stepping it down to 12v?

I changed the fluid in my rear diff yesterday and when I pulled the plug I found some metal shavings and a small metal chip on the plug. I had wanted to get a pic of the chip but somehow I cant find it anymore. By the looks of it, it did not appear to be off of a pin of any kind but rather it looked...
