  11. THE bleed valve is down on the slave cylinder on the trans mission. if you have too people one too push the pedel one undertoo bleed down through the slave. IT can be done by one person by gravity bleeding the slave then hand pump clutch pedal check fluid leval freq. until you get a hard pedal.

  17. Thank you Derek that is a nice thought googl Norcold and they have them too research helps on things.
  18. I have n o sunrader exp but personaly i prefure too install the metal frame type square vents they dont leak from hiden base cracks. and the base does not get brittle . could not get my leack stoped. new metal frame vent sealed it and no more problems.
  19. lAW enforcement wants too be able too read that vin through the window in a wreck that can be important we have people here that switch plates and auto theft is high. they dont look under your hood parked . and no the old cars did not have dash vin plates.
  20. do not have the dolphin at the house but my 1988 4wd xtra cab 22re trans type w56 5 speed has the metal vin plate on the firewall. and The dash vin on the dash. I also havea wash state sticker That states my truck is a salvege vecle as it was stolon in its past life. and bought by my dealer as an inserance recovery salvege truck the Dealer told ME right up front. as the truck was never wrecked i did not care. it has served me well for ten years. HE specialed in used toyota 4wd. IT also states that REMOVING THE SALVAGE STICKER IS A CLASS C FLEN EY. THE TITLE IS ALSO BRANDED SALVEG BUT DOES NOT MATTER TO ME.
  21. MY personal opinon is there is no such thing as an all season tire that is a three season tire. a wint er traction tire is a winter traction tire .in wa state on a mountain pass we have at least six if they post traction tires requred and they do all the time they mean it. you will get a tiket. also if the chains required sighn is up you better have them on. four wd is exmpt but you are requer d to be in 4 wd setting.
  22. soory i never had a cable out execpt the 1970s era can not advice. if it comes of at speedo shoot lube in top it will run down in side.
  23. Agreed that is a lot more too thro away at 140 dollors i can aford too toss myn if it died. hope i did not make you mad. myn ways 40 pounds.
