Re: Contacting Expedition Imports

Scott, I appreciate your response, and understand where you're coming from. I think many of us have worked in industries that suffer from the 80/20 rule, so we can appreciate that. My original post was made without malice, and was a genuine attempt to understand the situation. From my side of the sc...

Re: So many screws/bolts/washers

Ah, heck. I don't have the parts manual, just the service and operator manuals. I've been intending to get it. Shame on me.

RTFM.

So many screws/bolts/washers

One of the previous owners of my Pinz did an amazing job painting it, unfortunately, they only did a so-so job putting it back together. I'm missing a couple handfuls of screws, bolts, nuts, etc. For example, I'm missing the screws that hold the head guards in place. I'd like to get original hardwar...

Contacting Expedition Imports

Howdy folks, I reckon this question is to those who have purchased from EI in the past (most, I assume). I've been trying for a couple months to get a hold of them to order some small parts identified in the part drawings which aren't specifically listed on their website. Unfortunately, phone calls,...

Light Oil in Exhaust

My Pinz has what I assume to be a problem, though it may very well fall into "Yep, that's just how they are" territory. I noticed in my garage the other day that I had a couple feet of a light spray pattern of what appeared to be oil. It only took me a second or two to realize it's right w...

3D Printed Locker Control Light Covers

I wanted to share some parts I 3D printed for my truck. When I bought my Pinz, 3 of the 4 locker control light covers had broken tabs, so they were just hanging on by tiny brittle pieces of plastic. After a little time investigating the lights, I made it 4 out of 4 broken covers. I've seen replaceme...

1:8 Scale RC Pinzgauer Rock Crawlers

A buddy of mine is into RC planes/vehicles, and found this guy's hand built RC Pinzgauers on some forum: http://www.rccrawler.com/forum/1-9-scale-rigs/557757-steyr-puch-pinzgauer-710-712-1-8-scale.html Below is a video of someone else making a different vehicle, but you can see how long it takes to ...

Re: Custom Center Console

Well, I guess I turned into a living advertisement for it, cause I love it. I'm glad some other people get to enjoy this console too! I figured some long lost previous owner of my truck made one up in his garage. I must have missed that thread. Either way, I definitely recommend them. Dunno what to ...

Custom Center Console

I wanted to show off the center console that one of the previous owners of my 710M built, as inspiration for others who might want something other than the maintenance cover. As a new owner, I'm currently struggling with how much I want to modify my new truck. I have a '74, and it's in pretty decent...

Re: Fed up with Photobucket

I second imgur as a good image hosting solution. It's quick and free. Tangentially related, creating an account and reading this forum has been a blast from the past. It made me realize how long it had been since I sat down for real to read through and search old-school forums. Most problems/issues ...
