Hey great ride love were your going with it...how much did that injection system run you any problems? (said over 5 years ago by james).
Thanks Sean, the fuel injection is still working great. And to Answer James' question. The fuel injection was the best thing I ever did for this scout I think the unit cost me about $1200 and then I had Anything Scout install it. My only regret is that I (said over 5 years ago by Jason Wilbur).
(Continued) My only regret is that I didn't do it sooner (said over 5 years ago by Jason Wilbur).
Jason, awesome scout. looks like you really know how to treat scouts. there is nothing better then seeing a beautiful scout on the streets/ trials of SD. Where do you wheel in SD? (said over 5 years ago by Drew).
That picture was taken at Corral Canyon Trails, it's about 60 miles east of SD (said over 5 years ago by Jason Wilbur).
nice ride (said over 5 years ago by Darren Rule).
Thats one nice SCOUT! Great work. (said over 5 years ago by Chad Maile).
Nice job looks great (said over 5 years ago by Trenton Beckman).
Good Work Man!! I am currently restoring a '72 too. I plan on changing the Dana 30 Front to a D44. Have you had any problems with the D30 yet? (said over 5 years ago by Ryan Levenson).
Thanks guys, and yes, I blew a front hub on my D30 at the top of a hill climb. The only reason I haven't fixed it is because I will eventually be swapping in a full width D44 (said over 5 years ago by Jason Wilbur).
I am Pretty sure i saw you about a month ago in Encinitas on Leucadis Blvd. I think you had a couple 2x4s in the back from home depot. Was this you or another blue scout? (said over 4 years ago by Drew).
Sorry i mean Leucadia Blvd
(said over 4 years ago by Drew).
It could have been me, I was up there around that time to pick up a BBQ, but I don't recall having 2x4s in the back. (said over 4 years ago by Jason Wilbur).
Does your scout have power steering?Im working on a 72 scout and trying to decide on what to do (said over 3 years ago by michael chalmers).
Yeah, power steering is a must. I have a Samurai with manual steering and a front locker. It is a workout when I take it wheeling. (said over 3 years ago by Jason Wilbur).
