What did you do TO your Delica today?

[prairiefire]

Rear rotors, pads, F&R calipers and fluid are available from Napa (cheapest) and Lordco etc. Order 95 Montero parts through BC hydro garage, BC Transit or other large utility for the cheapest price. Napa doesn't care and doesn't ask for ID.

Or use JB Customs at Lordco (I get 70% off that way which is the biggest discount they have on any of their accounts)

I tried the JB customs account today. It didn't show up on their database. Asked me for the account number. ???

Aha, I've never actually told them I'm from JB Customs they always just put it down for me when they want to give me a big discount. It may be that the discount is too large for them to go based on the name alone and need the account number for verification!?

Fixed the cigarette lighter.

A) what a nightmare to get out if its screwed in tight. Had to use a plumbers tool to undo it:



Turns out its the link on the back, which I assume is fusable, well mine was, intentional or not, given the spacer is insulated I guess it is, got rid of that and it's all go!

Just ordered a tablet pc with satnav and fm transmitter built in, so I needed a power source back, just wont be able to use the cigarette lighter I guess, in case I melt the feeble wiring!

Here's the pc on order:



If it works, it will be, quite frankly, awesome!

Sanded and repainted front wiper arms, put my heat gun to the faded intake vent plastic parts and bumper guard cap...voila looking like new again!

Now I need to restore the rear bumper step.......sigh.

Oh and I had some custom decals made for Diesel Mitsubishi's. Its a play on both the RalliArt logo and the Jeep Trail Rated badge...picking up the production this Friday, will post once its mounted.

I replaced my rear windows with a laminate/plywood replacement I made = Utility wagon. It's kind of weird now, you can hardly tell that they are not just windows until you realize you can't see through them.

Got my tires rotated and discovered this little guy embedded in my rear left tire....Big O tires fixed it all up for free of course...

[FalcoColumbarius]

Whoa! That looks like a No. Eight Robertson 1 1/4" sub-floor screw ~ and if I'm not mistaken that's a B flat/ A flat dis-chord that it's sitting on. Good thing you caught in time!

Fixed my A/C system today and straightened the bumper guard, realigned the aux-lights.

I was told that if the tire runs too long below 10psi, very bad things could happen

Absolutely. That's what happened to Marc Bolan. He was driven home in a car whose tyres were low on air, one or more de-beaded and the car slammed into a sycamore tree, killing Marc instantly.

Did some cutting and pounding in the front wheel wells - clearance issues now gone. Also finished my Mud-Flap project and put new center caps on. Project list almost complete, just have to give it a nice coat of wax and put a couple new decals on. Then I will be ready for my trip to Tofino on August 1. Productive, but exhausted.

After waxing use mineral spirits on the area your applying the decal, wash the spirit off a few seconds after with 50/50 water/isopropyl alcohol. Let dry then apply. Hit with. Wax after to protect your wax free paint (wax free from the cleaning) This is how decal companies prep their surfaces before applying decals to fleet trucks etc. They will stick reallllllly well. They won't stick very well just on wax.

Did my inaugural seafoam clean, oil change, and fuel filter change.

Tomorrow ATF change, a bit of JB weld on the muffler hanger, and a wash n wax.
