We started the tear down this week and have an evening into dismantling our patrol. We got the interior out and have 2 stubborn bolts left for the bed. Hope to move to the hood and fenders this weekend. Also looked at mechanics so we can start ordering/tracking down parts. Listed below is the start of our needs list.
- wheel bearings
- oil pan gasket
- water pump gasket
- fan belt
- most of the rubber window and door seals
Will post more pictures soon.

I'm curious about the wheel bearings? Front wheel bearings or rear axle bearings? I have never seen front wheel bearings go bad yet.

River, I will double check the bearings. I had jacked everything up and spun the wheels. 2 of them had a whiring noise. May just need a good lube. Definitely looks like it could,use a good overall service.

That's some fast progress! That was just the easy part though.

Project came to a screeching halt. Between work, holidays, more work and cold weather it is at a stand still. Hoping to get back at it again but will likely be spring before we see progress.
