    I bet that thing is a pig on the road and trails.

    It’s nice, but 10” of lift it looks like, I’d still rock it.

    It's got a cop motor, a 440-cubic-inch plant. It's got cop tires, cop suspension, cop shocks. It's a model made before catalytic converters so it'll run good on regular gas.
    I've got a problem that I can't figure out. I backed a trailer into a police car last year and smashed the right side light. I continued using it until last Sunday when I replaced the entire light unit with an identical one. It didn't surprise me when the brake/blinker light didn't work in the new light because that's the one that got smashed. And I continued backing into water for a year, so of course it was shorted. Here's the problem; I can't find any blown fuses under the dash or the hood. I swapped some relays related to trailer or towing but I can't find the problem.

    The problem isn't in the trailer. I measured at the truck's 4-pin connector (factory tow package). Everything is fine except for the right side brake/blinker (same wire which is green). It gets 300mv (I'm assuming background noise?) when it should be off, and it rises to 1.3 volts when it should be getting 13.66 volts (what I measured the other circuits at).

    Anyone got any ideas?

    About Windrock.... I asked for a clump of days off, and got them. Now I'm like... "Uhh... I can make it to Colorado, wheel for 2 days, and make it home on-time". Anyone else got enough time for Rim Rocker?

    I would've been okay with the body. It was the fact both knuckles were leaking, the rear 3rd was leaking out from the pinion.

    He also said that the turbo oil return line broke and that's why there's oil on backside of engine and transmission on the bottom of the engine.

    The swap itself was great VW parts and adapter, it was all the Toyota parts that he didn't take the time to fix before doing the swap.

    I will say 4.10 gears and 35's that little 1.9L TDi made that thing scoot. The TDi only had injector nozzles changed, cheap, and a tune, also cheap and it basically doubles the power of the engine. I also think that engine weighs less than the 2.4 that's in it originally. I really think VW had the best economic 4 cylinder engine ever.

    edit I was wrong, for about $600 you take that TDI from 87 WHP to 146 WHP.
