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

Thank you very much for your input. Time to buy 2 batteries and listen to the wife complain for a couple of days. It's worth it, I love my Pinz! This will be the third time in 21 years I've replaced the batteries.

I'm running the optima 3478 batteries. IF the back battery is dead, can I run a new AGM optima with the other lead acid battery? Or is this a no no.

Lead acid batteries with PinzSSI. I will try to trickle charge the battery closest to the tool box that's at 11.5.

One of my batteries is 12.7 volts and the other is 11.5 volts. The engine cranks but won't start. Will the battery under 12 volts prevent it from starting? Thank you.

She started yesterday, ran for about 10 seconds then stopped. I tried to start her up again but she just cranks. Any suggestions are welcome. Thank you. ZIg.

Does anyone have any ideas how to get rid of that yellow build up on the windows of the vinyl tops. It's on the outside only. Thank you.

I believe I had a ball joint or spring failure in the shifter linkage. Group 02-30-14. Input appreciated. Thanks

Yesterday I was riding behind my house in the mountains. I had all the lockers engaged and was in low range, 3rd gear. I depressed the clutch to go into 2nd gear and it immediately felt different. I couldn't get into 1st, 2nd or reverse. I have 3, 4 and 5 only. What part/parts broke? Thank you for ...

The oil pan gasket is good but there's oil coming from above the oil pan on the drivers side. It's not from the oil cooler, does anyone has any ideas. I changed the O rings and the gasket of the oil cooler thinking that would solve the problem but it didn't. Can it be the exhaust manifold gasket ...

I'm leaking fluid from the steering box. Do I need to replace the whole box or the O rings and bushing only. Thank you Zig

I tried looking up the part of the steering linkage that's leaking but could not find it, it's the round part between the upper and lower idler arms. Do I need to replace the whole part or the O rings and bushings associated with it. Thanks Zig

I'm getting popping sounds and hesitation while accelerating for a few miles when I drive the truck, then it slowly goes away, does anyone have any idea what's causing this.

Looking for the front bumper pair for the 710, thank you Zig

Looking for a used maintenance cover that sits on top of the engine cover. Give me a shout. Zig

I need to change my cooling fan but noticed there is no hex nut to remove, instead there is what looks like an inner splined part. Does anyone know what tool is needed to remove this part that retains the cooling fan. Swiss Army vehicles part list shows a hexagonal nut, I wish it was that easy ...
