Nice. For $15.71 I'll try the haffy one. Of course it lacks the pretty chrome ring. :roll:

Mine just gave up too. Anyone know the measurements on the Haffy one? Not sure I want to go through the hassle of wiring a pump and switch. But I'm sure not going to pay $150.00 for the original one. :roll:

Wow! Those Volvo's are beautiful! How much are those going for, I wonder?

I LOVE driving my truck. I drive it hundreds of miles a weekend in the summer going all over the mountains. Initially I went nuts trying to fix every single drip, rattle, etc. It's a 35 year old military vehicle! All of my electrical glitches were just dirty connections. I live with the minor leaks ...

Wow, it looks really nice in the pics. That's a great price if it indeed is that nice. I went from a really built 2003 Rubicon to my 712M. I'm still amazed at what it will do! Parts are not that hard to get. Kind of like any other imported vehicle, some things are pricey others not so bad. They are ...

Mark, that looks great. I'm thinking of doing that too. My clamps are always working themselves loose. I have noticed a small leak starting where the flex-pipe goes into the steel sleeve. I'm not sure what to do about that yet.

I installed the SAV kit too. Made a huge difference in the noise and odor on my rig. Hardest part was grinding the rings off.

Scott (Expedition Imports) has a similar item with a slightly different design.

I'm a Glock certified armorer. Been using them on duty for years. I have a model 36 that I own. I carry a model 22 when working uniformed duty. I also have a Glock entrenching tool I keep in the Pinz. I always compare Glocks to a carpenter's hammer. They are a tool. Not pretty, but they do the job v...

I do think it's about time we guard our borders the way the East Germans did. Only instead of keeping people in under penalty of death, it's to keep people out. Just a matter of time before the violence jumps the border in a big incident. Then we'll have to have the border secured NOW. I feel for th...

After my stock muffler died, I had a custom exhaust run all the way out the back of the truck. Made a big difference in the exhaust smell. I think the stock location has alot to do with the odor. My header bolts loosen frequently too. I usually notice the change in the sound when they do. Obviously,...

It is a great place to go, kinda off the beaten track, but still a great place. In my mind the key to repeatable event is going to be to find a place we can all get together (the camaraderie thing) and have enough of a variety of trails to make it worth the drive and time expended. Amenities are in...

See if you can wiggle the upper part of the carb. There are 4 screws that come up through the bottom of the throttle body. Mine are always coming loose. It's a pain because you have to remove the carb from the engine to tighten them.

We've got pallet containers of those mirrors. I'd be thrilled to sell them at $9.99 each. I would be curios to see the "clamp mechanism" that was provided with your mirror's as that has always been the drawback to fitting these to a mog/pinz. Cheers, Scott Hmmm, Guess if they don't mount ...
