Sick. I wana use a montero gauge cluster eventually...
So after i fixed that short, everybody works now, save
the fuel and water temp gauges, which are only there 75% of the time.
But get this, it seems to be my ignition key switch thats the culprit, if i move the key a little contact is made and the fuel/water come up...
Weird.
As for the lower valiance, i made it like 2inches taller than the monteros have, not that i had any actual dimentions...
Thank you all for the complements, it was a rush job and not up to my standards, but itll do for now
Fuckin hell its been a while.....
Anybody down under have a lead on a shifter assembly? And a heater box, ebay Australia is less then accommodating.....
Ebay is beginning to suck all over. I'm reluctant to order any major new parts from the US due to the Kentucky Bermuda Triangle. Seems a lot of stuff goes in, but no guarantee it'll come out...
My 2 cents ~ I recently got burned by an outfit called BAP to the tune of $450.00 + paint for a power steering gearbox that did not fit my truck when they said it would..! Too late for a return as well, out the entire $450.00..!!!
More 2 cents ~ On ebay, I ordered one hub cap BUT am in the process of ordering two 4X4 front hub caps (the ones with the big hole) the seller advertised two hub caps for sale... One chrome the other painted, I need two plain steel painted hub caps so I paid for buying the one painted... The seller emailed asking if I wanted to buy the other cap as I asked if he had two painted, nope just the chrome (I think?) I emailed that paint does not stick to chrome as the reason for not wanting his chrome cap... Well, he emailed again today with a photo of two silver color painted hub caps, thats what I need/want... I replied yes I will buy both BUT only as long as the 2nd hub cap is not paint over chrome...
The seller has a 100% score, we shall see..? After the fiasco with BAP I believe any ripoff is possible now-a-days..!!!
Taking A Chance ~ ebay sellers have so far been straight with me & provided the parts I was after (the small stuff for the Mikuni carburetor)...
George
ebay Hub Cab purchase update ~ seller says his two hub caps are painted steel not chrome ~ previously paid for one, now waiting for updated shipping cost to Hawaii ~ hoping to get two decent front 4X4 hub caps
UPDATE ~ the two hub caps are due to arrive between 17 & 30 June
