I haven't looked any farther.

Gimp, when you get a chance, can you get me pics of the oil cooler and the air filters? I think I will get those from you along with the wipers. I'll look up the rest of the NSN's next week and see if I need the bearings or seals. Thanks!

My parts pile is getting huge! Between the parts and all of the tools, the Excursion will be stuffed on Sunday! One of the first things Chad and I will be doing is installing the fuel-burning heater that I got from Bjorn. We'll have some heat under the dash to keep us warm while we are working on the wiring

I'm taking the shop-vac too. I'm going to clean out the whole cab and then we are going to mount a couple of doors and stretch a tarp across the cab to keep things dry after we start getting everything installed in the dash.

I'll be sure to get another video of the engine this time. We'll have the wiring fixed so I'll be able to slave it over and get more juice to the starter. I'm putting a new oil filter on it and I'll pre-fill it before installing it. That way we'll get oil right to the pump and will hopefully make some oil pressure this time. Fingers are crossed!!
