[Capt Sensible]

bad driving :lol: just kidding... you shouldn't submerged the piaa's when they are on.. lens will shatter... so make sure to turn them off when you're playing in deep water... I just re-placed mine a month ago... forgot to turn them off when i played in the water.. broke both lenses and water and mud got inside of the assembly.. that eventually killed both lights... :mecry:

wow, lucky!

 

[curiousd]

PIAAs were off but they are a pain in the ass to take apart and clean out when they are full of mud haha

[curiousd]

yeah totally forgot about that little problem, what do you guys think I need to change fluids or can I check them before I worry ? which ones should I worry about ? And where do I get the scuba mod kit I have seen on here for sale from a member ?

I would definately check your rear diff fluid pronto. There is a thread on how to do the scuba. It is not difficult. Not sure who sells a kit.

I would definitely check your fluids to make sure you didnt get any water in the dif You can buy the SCUBA mod kit from FJNewb. I just ordered mine and kt will be here by Friday, I think it was $65. Check out this link. :cheers:

jost ordered the scuba mod, i will check for water in the dif after work.

 

[curiousd]

Front and rear diffs had water and sand in them, no more puddles until scuba kit shows up Haha

Most people would benefit more from the SCUBA Mod than the snorkel. Get the SCUBA Mod first, at least.
