    Didn't even know about the Bushmaster until I saw this video. Then I looked it up. Nice going, excellent work.

    Just bought one for $1 from my Grandfather - the very truck I learned to drive on at 13 years old. These are worth preserving! I hope to get mine on the road again soon.

    Hey Jared, I just watched all the bushmaster vids. I’m a 720 enthusiast. I have 5. Let me know if you still need the 4x4 pan. I know where one is in a junk yard. I’m on the east coast, but it may be worth it to you. Engine build vids were pretty great. I know a lot of guys am that struggle with the timing due to the oil pump lining up correctly with the distributor. Anyway, great vids. I’d love to own a bushmaster, maybe one day. You have a new fan.

    Man, I'd love it if I could drive our 1983 again. It's sitting in my driveway. I just finished washing it for the first time in 20 years. I used to wash it for fun in the 80's, and 90's as a kid. But...it's going to be a very similar project to yours if I decide to get into it. I'm wondering how much money it would take.

    That flat area on the upper ball joint is there to smack with a hammer to disengage it from the hub.

    The Bushmaster is finally rolling, good job! I like that car, it looks really eighties and quite nice from the outside. Do you plan to keep it? It might be really handy with all that room it offers. What's next to roll again? The Landcruiser?

      @Jerod_Helt  3 года назад

      It’s a vacuum and that sucks the fluid out. It works ok and can be done with one person. But two people doing it the old fashioned way works much better👍

      It doesn’t work. I think it’s the gauge that’s broken. I’m pretty sure it’s hooked up.

    I recently drove a 1984 model and the windows rattled in it also. It was a daily driver that was put in a museum because it was in mint condition. so it must be some design failure

      @Jerod_Helt  3 года назад

      Yeah, it was extremely hard to find the correct oil pan. I’m good at finding hard to find parts, but it still took months to find and actually get one. There were a few that fell through and one that I bought but it turned out to be the wrong one.
