The project 710K Begins.

I am thinking it goes to the rear tailgate lock but tough to know without the size.

It's just a hair over 3 inches long. It's a 710K, so no tailgate. But maybe the locks are the same.

Yes, the 710k does have a tail gate or back door and that pin goes into the lock. You would be well served by a parts book. I looked it up for you. I believe it is part 28-05-02.

Thank you, I appreciate it.
The parts book is ordered as well.

Bled the lockers today and got them all working as they should. Nasty, dark, lumpy fluid all gone, replaced with new DOT 3. Replacement rubber elbows/lines on order.

Looking a little more put together. Mounted 2 ram balls for mounting a camera and my gps map display. I need to invest in an I pod mini to display onx offroad. Another clamp on mount is currently holding my GMRS radio. I added a pic from rebuilding the locker cylinders. Surprisingly, they were still working with all the junk inside.

Here's how I set up the phone holder, dashcam, and GPS mount. And tach.

I find keeping things up higher helps with keeping focus outside.

The GPS mount is a suction cup to the windshield, but also secures on top of the wiper motor.
The phone mount is also suction cup to the windshield, but also with a support bracket to the top of the dashboard assembly.

Looks great. I agree, higher is better. I have had mixed results with suction cups. But I still use them on occasion.

Got the VDO fuel gauge installed and working. I metered in 10 gal of fuel and watched the reading change. I estimate +- 13 to 14 gal of fuel total in the tank at this point. I will fill it up at some point and calibrate the high side. Also removed the old hour meter, not sure if I want an oil temp or just blank it off.
