Re: Dbear's '71 4x4 Burb with some USA Military Diesel
Just an update here fellas....I FINALLY found someone who is really gonna help me get this rig running! Ryan, a board member here was kind enough to offer his services, and it will be going to him tomorrow and hopefully in the next 2 weeks we will be listening to that 6.2 Diesel clatter!
Also, want to say thanks to Clint "Woodright" for all his help with wheels and many questions answered. Sometimes you can make some good friends on these forums....and looks like I have a few so far! Thanks guys...... |

Anytime boss. Let me know if I can help some more. Have you called Idaho fish and game? You could become Ranger Tommy.:metal:

Re: Dbear's '71 4x4 Burb with some USA Military Diesel
It was good to meet you tonight Tommy. I look forward to helping you get this thing up and running. This is a great board, I've made a lot of friends from here over the last 11 years.

Sorry, I've been too busy working to take pics, but will try to tomorrow. If my leg doesn't give me too much trouble, the ole girl will be ready to fire in the afternoon. All that's left is to mount the fan and the trans cooler. :thumbs:

Re: Dbear's '71 4x4 Burb with some USA Military Diesel
It's running. We had to replace the injection pump and now chasing down a few leaks. Other than that, it's coming along nicely.

Update....Burb is running, just not driving quite yet. Gotta adjust the 700R4 tv cable, run exhaust and should be good to go.....
I built a auxiliary battery box and a front replacement bumper ( sorta winch style without the winch ). Still got to finish welding the bumper up and smooth/blend joints. I am hoping it looks good on there, but we shall see very soon. When I get it mounted, I will post more pics..... I will also be posting more pics of swap process and other things changed on the burb. hope you fellas like the change! Here are some pics of the unfinished bumper and aux. battery box. |
