Rear seat upholstery

Does anyone have a good source to have their rear bench seats reupholstered? In the world of auto upholstery this doesn't seem like a major task but no one in my area seems to want to tackle this. I'd love to get all four seats and backs refoamed and upholstered so let me know if you got a guy that ...

3d Printed Parts

While I was rebuilding my wiper pivots I noticed that the dust caps had more or less dissinigrated and the only option for new ones was to purchase the whole pivot assembly, which I didn't need. So, I ended up 3d printing some out of TPU, which is basically a fairly tough rubbery plastic. They pushe...

Winter ready!

Snow is coming in hot but I managed to get a couple things wrapped up before it does. New split boots on the front axles as well as some Doetsch shocks to match the rear. I reused the HD shock sleeves instead of the ones that came with the new shocks. The ride is noticably better! I wonder why? :) I...

Re: 4wd engagement

When I first got my Pinz, two out of three slave cylinders were slow or 'not responding' basically due to limited use/maximum neglect. After dissecting them and flushing with fresh fluid everything is operational. Two bolts to remove the slave is all it takes to know if you need to dig deeper.

Re: Fiberglass hardtop

Thanks rmel, I sent a message to Andre. I really prefer how the fiberglass ones look over the sheet metal ones so hopefully he still makes them.

Thanks Hotzen, I'll reach out and see what they say. Looks like they do nice work!

Fiberglass hardtop

I've been looking for a fiberglass hardtop for my 710 cab and can't seem to find any companies that make them...do they exist anymore? Most of the threads on the matter are filled with broken links and are about 10 years old. I'd love to source a new top in prep for the incoming winter! Any suggesti...

Re: Spare Tire Mount

Looks great Gadget! How do you have that attached?

With a name like GadgetPhreak you must have a backup camera...is that it center mounted in your roof rack?

Re: 710m rear springs

I've been rocking the new springs and shocks for the last half of summer and while the ride was certainly better, the Pinz was still sitting too tall and while parked unloaded, there was only about a 1/4" slack in the limiting straps. So today I went after my original springs, cleaned the scale...
