How hard is it to do the scuba driver mods on the FJ? Any idea? Possible Scuba Driver install party? I'm interested in doing this mod so I don't have to worry when fjording a fjord.

This post spurs from a thread hijack over on the Grand Staircase thread.

Who is interested in doing the Scuba Driver mods? Depending on the time necessary to do the job, I think we should put together a Scuba install day / weekend so those of us interested can get the mod out of the way.

I'd like to have the mods done on my rig before Oct 1. We'll need access to tools, jacks, car stands, etc. Who would like to volunteer to host the party? Does anyone have an idea about how long it will take to mod an FJ?

Also, if anyone has a list of necessary parts, posting it up would be a huge help to those of us who have no idea what is needed.

I gotta get scuba'd as well!

 

[mattmainster]

I have the parts, just need to do it.

 

[therelaxer]

We need a Scuba install party. This may need to be a new thread. I have half a keg from my Memorial day party.

I'll move the Scuba related posts to the appropriate place.

Count me in too. I volunteer my house if people don't mind schleping out to Simi Valley.

 

[FunJunkie]

I'm also down and also offer up the house and tools. I dont know whats furthur for most, simi valley or SD miramar area. lol Mabey we could do a split party and keep it hosted realtime online conference so we can talk back and forth between the 2.

I like it! I need it! I also need to get the Atrac/locker mod (early FJ).

Matt,

Since you have all the parts needed, care to compile a list of what each of us needs to buy? Also, if you have an idea of the cost, posting that would be helpful as well.

 

[Kokopeli]

Actually, this is a good thread to read through, especially the part that deals with the necessary parts and the install.

If you guy want to rally to So. OC (SJC) on Sat. May 31st. After Cleghorn maybe about 2ish pm. We can do it at my house. Like I said, " half a keg left over from Memorial day."

If someone can buy the parts for me I will repay them. I am a little busy between now and then.

I will check this thread to check the interest.

lol. How long did it take you? Did you do the no cut?

 

[WESBC]

Interested if its not that far.

for the life of me, i could not get pin 11 out of LA2.

but, i still wanted the "hack" to be performed inside the cabin rather than the engine bay. so, i cut the blue/yellow wire a few inches back of the male connector, soldered on another wire connected to a add-a-circuit. basically, the exact same instructions in the below thread, only cut the wire. end results were the same.

it took me an hour or so fiddling around with trying to remove the pin. if it came out easier, the whole mod shouldn't take more than 30 minutes or so.
