I always find there is one or two really easy ways to do things and a lot of hard ways to do the same or frustrate yourself trying. I am kind of lazy so if things aren't easy I ponder before proceeding. I also seem to find taking shortcuts isn't the easy way. Like with this stupid exhaust leak...

Wait what were we talking about again?
I know about that sacrifice thing. Ever since then, I rarely know what we are talking about. ;)

No worm or virus on these trucks to track down their location or to disable the ignition... of course they are smuggled, no dealer incentives for the nearest 1000mile around the theater of operations...

It is not lazyness, but reflection on how to do it for the least amount of energy...
My PS pump leak, I was determined to find the exact location of the leak in the back, one o-ring at a time, I must have drained that reservoir 4 times... try different o-ring, the AC green seems to be the most pliable, it did not self destruct... 4 days now no drops.
Probably knowing that rebuilt pumps will leak again in a few weeks... Time to find a new pump, if it exists...

Like many, I've followed your build, off and on, since you bought the thing, but I'm stumped-- I can understand every complaint but one, why is your Wagoneer unreliable? My friends wag is a heap, but it's as reliable as his 2000 RAV4, neither has ever broken down.
