RC's in Mexico had the rear window wiper. I dont believe it was ever an option for the US market.

Firstgenw250: My aunt lives in Tahoe City, so you probably will. No longer has duallies and has white doors now...

Freight train: I may be making a trip to Mexico then.. Or rip a wiper setup out of a Cherokee and hack something together. Didn't they make RC's into '94 down there? And don't they have RC's that kinda look like Durangos?

Studie: the w350 is now essentially a W100/150 with a 360/A518 a flatbed and a DIESEL title (smog exempt?) I was planning on taking the flatbed and putting it on my W250 and then selling it (w350/150). The interior and sheetmetal are in great shape.

As far as the W350 axles, I may take them from the RC and put them under the W250, and vice/versa. I can't just do one axle as the gear ratios are different between the two sets The w350 axles have a numerically higher ratio than the 3.54's in the W250

Thank for the kind comments guys.

Also in need of front non-saggy headliner in grey. Or a source for new ones.
Sorry, been off DTR for a while.

I did the interior sheetmetal with bedliner, got rid of all the vibrations in the floor. But I haven't done the sound insultation and carpet yet. Post how it turns out, stockinteriors.com has a kit. I was thinking about running carpet in the front of the RC while leaving the cargo area exposed bedliner - what's your plan?

I just redid my headliner. I used the stockinterior.com kit. The XL kit is required for the RC and I would recommend getting an extra can of glue .... maybe two. But, I tend to use a lot of glue.

For reference my RC has the blue interior and I got the Oxford Grey color. There is no blue in the oxford grey, but it looks appropriate with the grey in the door panels (just a little lighter)

Can you tell me the process and what you said to DMV to get that done? I am about to go thru this with my 79 RC.

Thanks!!
