Re: Need help, replacing 7 blade connecter

In case it helps, you can also install an additional junction box on the trailer tongue. I did this and it makes replacing the 7 way easy, as well as makes troubleshooting much simpler.

Re: Window rubber seals, gaskets, covers, etc

Welcome back and congrats on the purchase! Speaking of those drain slots at the bottom of the front windows, I find they require something in front of them (small piece of foam), otherwise road spray will infiltrate through those weep holes when driving in the rain, and end up getting all over the f...

Re: Need replacement axles

I ordered mine from Colin Hyde (info in post above). It’s been several years, but I believe he just had me measure the distance from one mounting bracket to the other. I’m not sure whether the same torsion axles are used for all 89’s.
