the wheel at 1:33 :D

these shipped from Singapore

with out the rewire amber and red light up at same time, flashing and stopping both, that is the legal issue.

and black is ground for those not so inclined, and sorry I am not pic inclined

just did this on my 77KC decided to add some wiring photo to help anyone else as a photo is worth 1000 words blue to green, turn signal darkgreen and yellow go to 2 green/yellow stripe, marker lights bottom red goes to red/black, back up light middle red goes to new wiring ran from brake light switch https://www.flickr.com/photos/95749858@N07/13913077680/

78 B210, 83 GTI. 81 240 turbo wagon (ahh the expansive comfort, minus the metal thing that lacerated both of us)

My truck got hit today while I was at work, tailgate(which had plate steel welded to the inside) took the brunt of a Wrangler, but the left light, bucket and surround are toast and the right looks like the surround got bent, need to get it on a rack to check under, his bumper went between the gate and bumper, pushed the OE plate bracket inward, not sure what else, it's still snowing and cold and nowants to roll around on the snowey road under the truck. Obviously the most economical route is the chinese replacements, $20-40 for thelight set, another $20-40 for surrounds. Anyone know are the junk, do they fit? Also if anyone has a decent gate they don't need I'd be most happy.

Just google cross referenced, it's the choke relay. With the emissions stuff removed and running a Weber carb is this a redundant part?

Nope, the regulator is 6 wire clover shaped connector, it's already bypassed, this relay is farthest back, against the firewall.

I did the saturn alternator swap a couple weeks ago, the reman OE alt crapped out and this seemed the most reasonable route. Everything was good for the first day, ran 13-14V no red lights woot. Next couple time I drove the truck the voltage was lower and lower, didn't drive it for a few days, went to start it.....nothing, not a peep. Charged the battery swap out the alternator again both benched good and reinstalled. As soon as I hook up the negative cable this relay looking device on passenger fenderwell by the firewall clicks, it's powering up immediately. I imagine this was my power draw, truck runs fine with it disconnected, is it important? 77 620 L20B, emissions deleted, Weber carb

As always, thanks for replies all!

77 KC with kingpin suspension BTW, make it a 76.5?

Often when I start rolling in the truck there is an uncomfortable groan from the front suspension of the truck. I recently replaced all of the steering components, thinking it was the badly worn Idler Arm but the groan continues, next guess is the tension rod bushings. Is there something that's a reasonably facsimily of the factory bush or someone have a factory part # as my local dealer tossed all their microfiche :(

I had an old AWDGL wagon of the same vintage, lock the 4X and would go up walls. Last I heard, some one took the AWD a bit too seriously and drove it off a low cliff, folding it on landing.

6144 Offenhasuer manifold, most everyone knows these, but I'll tell what I know about it. Designed for 32/36 weber, it's aluminum and emissions free and all of the threads and plugs are good, tbh I don't think it's ever been mounted as there is just one scuff around a single bolt hole . The circles drawn on the machined face are L20 gaskets comparison, yes it's smaller diameter but it's supposed to build more low end torque, cause of the dual planes design etc. Will not work with cars/trucks that have heat riser exhaust manifold without a header or early manifold swap. $100 shipped in the states, no bites this week it goes on EBay.
