Sounds like you offroad with idiots. Unless you are participating in a demolition derby the object is to enjoy the day/night WITHOUT destroying nature, your vehicle or yourself. 16 antennas in 5 outings? Really?

Hardly! I have been offloading for 30+ years and have never "ripped off" any antenna. That includes an AM/FM radio, CB radio and HAM radio antennas. Buy quality, install it correctly and you should be good to go.

Painted the roof. Now I have to paint the rest of the vehicle.

Thanks!

I own an 1987 ExMOD D-90 that the front left door has pretty much rusted out and it in need of replacement. Can somebody please provide me with an accurate parts number so I can track down the correct door. The door looks like this but it has a hole for the lock next to the lever cutout...

That's why I ask, thanks. Slower is better anyways.

Another warm day and I noticed that it runs hotter when I am on the highway (60+ MPH) than on the streets (45 MPH). Any thoughts before I swap out the thermostat for a cooler one?

You won't need a second alternator for a second battery.

I'm guessing that the 2nd alternator is in fact a 24v generator. It won't do you any good and will ad a bunch of weight to your truck and stain to the motor. Pass on it or sell it on EBay if there is even a market for it.

All the ducting is present and in good shape. I'll probably put a cooler thermostat in and see if it makes a difference. Thanks all!

Thanks, I just don't want to cook anything. Both the oil temp and the water temp gauges are more than 1/2 way across which started me wondering. It was 30* out today in Arizona.

Does 82 degrees at the thermostat housing measured with a laser thermometer sound about right? Thanks, Dave

Cut a piece of metal out and weld it in place, grind flush and refinish.

You now have an excuse to swap the engine out when the wife/girlfriend asks "Why"?

I believe so but I have a 90. It should be very close to the fuel tank.

Obstructed fuel or sediment filter is my guess for your problem too. Cold weather = Thicker fuel Either one would restrict fuel flow which would greatly limit power.

Check your glow plugs for function. I have quite a bit of white smoke at smart and found two dead plugs.

The older I get the more nostalgic I get. It rolled out of the factory with a LR diesel and the only mod my soul would let me do is a LR Tdi at best. For now, slow is good. Here is my daily driver: *The hideous chrome wheels have been swapped to black steelies*
