Got some neat parts out of the junkyard today

Postby stillsmokin » Sun Apr 14, 2013 6:37 pm

Was going through the Omaha u-pull yard yesterday to get a air conditioning vacuum/wiring harness for the K30 crew cab. I stumbled on this crappy 85 half ton 4x4 with a 6.2 and gave it the once over. Right as I was getting ready to walk away I noticed something, the really gay TURBO DIESEL windshield decal. But, it made me think... Hmmm... So I went back to look and found out it was no BS. It had the remnants of a banks powerpack system minus the cold side parts and the crappy turbo.

So, today I went back and pulled off everything that was left, it was too cool to let it go to the crusher.

I got my honda exhaust manifold and various exhaust crap (downpipe, crossover pipe, turbo fuel pump drain plate, banks sidewinder manifold etc) for a whole $40. Now to find the cold side parts for a later daily driver project. I thought an HE341CW would suit the sidewinder pretty nicely.

To-day I went to the junkies up there, myself and scored some decent stuff.

Power Stroke intercooler from '99-'02 Frog.
Dash bezal from a 1999 2500 Dodge.
O/H console glasses door from the same 1999 2500.
Gray over-door trim (L&R) and column trim from a 1992 W-150 E/C.
Fender for the 1996 Dakota I'm driving.
Bumper and chrome LUVERNE brush guard from the same 1996 Dakota.

I never even KNEW Luverne made brush guards for a DAKOTA, but there it is, and it mounts up sweet!

I may roll out to Kearney later on this week. ;)
There's some REALLY nice stuff out at those yards! :D

Mark.
