Re: Making a 712m into a hard top m with K door

Incredibly hard... or just really time and skill intensive. That said. Need a jig/framework inside the vehicle to maintain all the dimensions when you cut out the metal where the rear doors will go. Need a scrapped K or complete fabrication of the body door wells need the back doors with door tops.....

Re: Intercom + phone + ham radio solution?

The AirPods can connect to either non-apple or apple devices. But I am not sure how well communications (voice quality) will translate to/from other equipment plugged into the device the AirPods are connected to. It "should" work... but have not done any integrations like a SDR device to s...

The noise cancellation qualities of the the AirPods Pro is pretty darn good. Their connectivity to to non bluetooth devices is questionable.

Hi, Welcome aboard! Below I am quoting... Besides Austrian Pinzes having fuses vs circuit breakers in the Swiss, the tail lamp setup is totally different in that the Swiss used tail lamps and combined turn/brake indicators ( also for the trailer socket). The Austrian use independent bulbs for each f...

Re: Aftermarket Soft top maker

I too, thought that Tuff River was not making pinz tops. If they are... There is no better top. All others are single sheet material. That said... my single sheet stock top lasted 30+ years. If you farm it out... there are lots of tiny details the vendor may miss... like the weep holes at the bottom...

Re: EFI on a 710M

I may have missed an earlier conversation... are you "flipping" your truck? If you are adding EFI to add value to the truck without significant other improvements ... then it is unlikely to break even. At the end of the day, for us in california, these are 46 year old vehicles. Adding EFI ...

Re: California Registered 1974 710-M for sale or trade

Just FYI... For anyone in California that wants a Pinz, it is EASIEST to buy one that is already registered in California. CARB (california air resources board) would like to charge newly registered CA vehicles 2 to 4k ($$$) when they come into the state. (http://real4x4forums.com/PinzgauerBBS/viewt...

Re: 1973 710K For Sale

That would be a 710M troop carrier with a hard top over the cab. The "K" is a 5 door radio truck with a hardtop over the complete vehicle.

Since I do not have the SSI kit installed, my order of solving (this when it happens to me) is this...

Re: Engine cover sound and heat reduction

I have not realized any issues regarding heat from the engine and when still/stopped not bad regarding sound. My experience was the overall sound comes from rolling and vibration of the flat body panels. Though, during the rebuild, the interior was Linex'ed including the removable engine covering. I...
