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

Bought from Andre with Fat Fabrications back in 2018. Also recently serviced by Andre a few weeks back. Runs and drives great! All service and parts receipts since owned. Comes with multiple tools, snow chains and an aftermarket canvas canopy. Always garaged, driven mostly on weekends and rarely ...

All of my dash indicator lights are not working. Saw Andre last week and he was saying that it is probably the Diode box behind the dash. Looked at the Pinz Maintenance and Repair PDF files, but no mention of where this diode box is located. Any ideas or photos of where this is located before I ...

Trying to track an oil leak down and need a few suggestions. From the photo, it looks like it’s leaking from the O-Ring or possibly the lower pin. Has anyone seen something like this before? Thanks!

Update:

For those that might be having the same issue, replace your distributor cap along with the coil, plugs and wires. The stumbling seems to have been resolved.

Thanks for the help!

Well....I replaced the coil, plugs and wires. Gapped plugs at about .032”. Truck ran great on two around the block test runs. This evening, after the second test run, I turned it off and let it sit for about 20 minutes. I started it back up and the hesitation/misfire returned. Barely made it up our ...

A few days ago, I noticed a sudden loss of power driving around town. It was intermittent, so I limped home to check things out. I live on a hilly driveway and barely made it to the top and in the garage.

Checked the fuel tank for red death, pickup tube, fuel line and filter. All clean. Measured ...

Looking for a cordless or corded impact wrench for the Pinz. Unfortunately, I don't have a compressor big enough for air tools.

What would be the most cost effective tool that can get most jobs done? What is the minimum amount of in-lbs that I should stay above? Lowes and Home Depot have a few ...

My son and I tried camping in the rear of my 710M the other night, but was just unbearable due to the lack of ventilation, heat and humidity. I had a portable fan sitting on the doghouse facing the rear with both windows open with little relief.

Any ideas of a small, portable swamp cooler or ac ...

Interesting. I can see a plug-in electric Pinz doable. But a solar-powered Pinz seems to be a steep climb to a accomplish. Hope they can do it!

Newbie question....

Is this the correct jacking point? Is the rear similar? Thanks!

My speedometer and odometer have not been working. Decided to pull the speedometer assembly to investigate. Spinning the rear cylinder of the assembly by hand moves the needle and odometer. Also removed the 90 degree adapter to see if that was frozen. That spun freely as well. The only thing it ...

This is a new VDO 301 040 model fuel gauge. The gauge works, but at night, the backlight does not illuminate. I checked the wiring against the Pinz color schematic and the wiring diagram of the gauge. A few things seem off. The two circled areas seem to be missing a wire. Is that correct? See photo ...

Another satisfied customer! Bought a 1972 710M from Andre. He went above and beyond getting the rig road-worthy and helping it get delivered. A complete drivetrain rebuild, brakes, carb rework, tune, etc. He was patient with my questions and always gave great advice on the build. He is a true ...

PM sent.

And located within driving distance of Georgia. Paint and mileage are not important. But looking for something with minimal rust, if possible. If anyone has something that may be available, please let me know.

Thanks in advance!
