Rusty, Those are a shoulder head bolt, and it's been my understanding that's the way that RVA set them up intentionally. The angle is so that they act more as a stabilizer than a lifting jack that only moves in one fixed direction like a bottle jack would. A straight up and down jack doesn't allow f...

Erik, A couple of things jump to mind - one big (huge) issue with Safari's is that they ran a line from the rear to the front for the headlight power - so while you may be reading over 12 volts, you may be missing the amperage that's needed for the headlights. There have been multiple posts in which...

Hotrod - it would be extremely helpful if you include what year, make and model of Safari you are having issues with. There are multiple changes over the course of their design, so it's really hard to help when we don't know with what. Also, if you don't wish to create a signature block, no biggie, ...

That looks like just a regular hydraulic brake pressure switch - you should be able to go into Napa with it and find a replacement.

Jay, If you could post a picture of the switch in concern it would help a great deal. One of the common switches that causes problems on Safari's is the emergency brake switch, but I'm not sure if it's the same as what you are looking for or not. Either way, Napa has a push button switch # TWD 90043...

I think the big problem is that our 96's don't have the diagnostic port set up with all of the inputs that the later models do, so the BlueFire may not work as well either since it uses the port for its data feed. I have the KR model and it has all the info that I was looking for, but I also had to ...

This is a long shot, but have you checked for a hidden GFCI outlet on the section that has no power? I had issues with my '96 and while searching found a "hidden" GFCI outlet under/inside the cabinet beside my entry door that was tripped. I wouldn't have found it other than I had pulled th...

I can't speak for the others that have done the side fresh air intake, but I know on my 96 I totally removed that plastic air box and have my new line running straight into the airline that goes to the filter. I saw little to no reason to keep the plastic unit - I felt it only increased the resistan...

This trip we just got home from confirmed it for me - my odometer is gaining 10%. The bizarre thing is that the speedometer is right on the money with my GPS - if it shows I'm doing 60, both of them agree, however my odometer continues the gain. I use my GPS to keep track of my miles traveled since ...

Update for anyone following - I took a cap from an oil sampling tube (thanks, US Air Force for throwing them out once the tube was used), notched a flat piece of aluminum stock and put a little piece of tape on it to hold the cap in place, then gently tapped it onto the line. It went on with just a ...
