new owner of a 90 carat. Turing this into a camping rig with weekender interior. I have put a Riviera poptop on, serviced the tranny, changed fuel lines and fuel rails, upgraded headlight and starter relays. There are no known other fluid leaks that i have found since i changed the governor oring on the tranny. Just wanted some advice on what i should do next. I need new tires and was thinking of the Hankook RA08?? I still have the factory 14 alloy rims. I have heard alot of debate on the tranny oil cooler and the s.s. coolant lines. I just want to make this as dependable as i can and would like to be a preventative as i can. Any thought on any other things to look at that can bite you later on.... Thanks This is a great thing for new owners!! |
