Anyone thought about a southeast meet and greet?

Was thinking it would be nice to meet some of the southeast owners. Maybe something in the spring. Figure Chattanooga, or maybe Asheville?

Anyone?

Re: Found a gem and brought her home...

Jefferson City, just outside of Knoxville.

Apparently it was an old rich couple and they traded it and a mid 80 diesel benz convertible.

A friend knows the sales staff and he tagged me on FB.

Appaently it had a line of people to buy it.

Re: First post... Just picked up an 83. Tons of questions

So basically put the car on ramps, drain from all 3 drain holes, then fill only from the front diff(final drive). 4.1L of diff fluid and you suggest 50/50 syn-Dino mix. What weight do you suggest?

Petros,

My searchfoo must be failing. I searched both transmission and tranaxle fluid change and nothing came up. What exactly is the procedure?

First post... Just picked up an 83. Tons of questions

Hey Guys, I rescued an 83 gold Wagon locally here in TN. I have always wanted a 4wd Tercel and use to ride around in my friends dad's wagon back in the early 90's. Mine needs a good bit of work, but runs fine, transaxle shifts well and the 4wd seems to engage. Here is a list of questions/ need to kn...
