HUntsman

Thanks for the replies. She came right out after 10 screws. I was dreading the 30 yr old glue but never encountered it. Huge New storage. Who needs hot water.its campin after all

theres nuthin scarier than going up a steep rough road at night w a motorhome only to realize its gettin too steep for the rig and no turnaround. and you attempt reverse in pitch black with tires skidding and a drop off looming. never again now I scout on foot, every steep rough backroad first --- for a turnaround its a workout, but well worth it versus a destroyed rig

1982 Toyota Huntsman Wondering if the tank is bolted down or is it just held in place with the numerous propane lines and its weight. I gotta get her outta there. Any removal advice is greatly appreciated. Thank you !

1982 pickup odometer is trying (klik klik) but wont turn the final figure. Any ideas how to fix?

Thanks everyone for the inputs.

i hear you about the handling. can't expect 30 year old rig to feel perfect. I've been adventuring all over the mountains/deserts for 13 yrs with my camper. been great. wandering steering is only sketchy when trying to correct after getting jerked around high wind gusts

i replaced the wall mount thermostat $ 15 - 30. and this solved my problem of not igniting. I also find that if I dont have enough 12volt juice it dont want to ignite

any suggestions where to start diagnosing problem. ? new tires/alignment done recently.

I thought it was front end but realize the knocking sound I am hearing is coming from deepunder just between the 2 front seats. Is the driveline joint the possible culprit? There is a connecting joint just where the 2 drive lines meet there. A deep knocking comes and goes but clearly in sync with wheel revolution. Not wheel bearings.tires good/balanced. ANy suggestions? Thanks

u the man . thanks

confused as to how many upper control arm bushings there are in front end of pickup is it 1 per side = 2 or are there 2 per side = 4 ? (almost certain this is correct) --also, how many ball joints do these bad boys take thanks 22R--4cyl -RWD

good call . i m starting to suspect that now. the front tie rods absorb a lot of weight, especially descending. i m always on rough forest roads, and stuff. thanks for everyone s suggestions.

[ name=Derek up North' timestamp='1350243644' post='33030] Loose lug nuts? A bad bearing I'd describe more a 'grumble' or a 'growl', not a 'knock'. Does the noise change when going around a curve?quote No change in noise when turning, its only a high rpm event(the noise)> its a deep, yet faint knock. Nothing in tires or nothing stuck on belt or anything.

got knocking (very slight) but gets louder at higher speeds yet is still faint appears ..to be coming from right front end i feel maybe swear wheel bearing sloowly goin but i m no expert handles real nice, no performance issues 82 huntsman 4 cyl 22r 2wd any ideas/ thanks

today i added installed some new blinds and also some low voltage lighting>> had these ikea lamps sittin around .. got to lookin at them and realized they are 12 volt.. Hey ..they are goin in the camper! they give off a nice light and give my 30 year old Huntsman a nice upgrade

instead of bags, i had heavy duty springs put on on mine. more costly but work great. got tired of makin sure keepin air in them all the time my leaky air bags r still on just sittin there worthless

thanks for help they appear to be sealed and running very smoothly no noise whatsoever i bought truck 50K ago and havent replaced em they fell off on my old Chevy truck and just trying to avoid that scary moment again is there any way to test if they are in proper working condition? any suggestions? thanks

Toyota pickup 1982 U joints--help ANyone know if the u joints in a 2WD 22R 4 cyl pickup need lubricating? or are they sealed points? they are bone dry(2 of them)..i got a feeling they are sealed reason is as dry as they seem, they d be crackling away while driving chassis is attached to a HUntsman camper Thank you

I was in the exact situation. what s the point of camping with ac power next to someone else? i do that at home! i threw away the AC and cleaned up the edges of the opening and caulked in a $ 4 plexiglass . theres my skylight works great cheap fix i put a roll up shade on it for summers when the sun bakes through & i m good to go
