I was loading my van to go truckn' tomorrow and realized that the seat wouldn't move. Somehow the power wires got pulled out from the captains chair. So I dug out the soldering iron and shrink tubing, Had it fixed in no time. Then I finished loading the van and checked all the fluids. Good to go!
Next stop Rhode Island, then on to Vandango! yay

I had to send it back to the shop....they put a posi pak in the '92 and apparently when they installed it and didnt get a good seat..those pulled out of the seat....so they put in another pak and now its 4 months later and it sounds like this set is pulling out of the seat.....I believe when they installed the first set they have wallowed out the seat and now it wont hold a set of gears....they need to install a new housing and a new set of gears...

Its all on them....life time on parts & labor....

Said goodbye to her......:(
Took off tires, rims, visors, curtains, scraped all stickers from windows.
Couldn't get the danged hitch off though.
Had many mechanics look at her and she was so rusted I would've needed a whole new frame to set her on.
I am so sad I think a drink is in order............

Wow Deb, sorry to hear that. Do you think it was the salt that did it? I've seen several other great looking vans in boneyards around here where the underneath just fell to pieces, with things like springs blowing through the floor, etc. You're far better safe than sorry!! What do you think you'll find as a replacement?

It's what you learn after you know it all, that counts...
