Re: 1971 Haflinger Pathfinder restoration.
Rear "jump seat" lids and frames reviewed today.. These things were removed from my truck many, MANY years ago and appear to have been thrown in a pile, on the ground, in dirt. Frankly, I'm lucky I have them at all. The good; Although a bit rusty and weather-warn, the seat frames are still...

Re: 1971 Haflinger Pathfinder restoration.
Spending time labeling and removing the harness from my Hafi,and noticed that the upper left ant right corners of the engine bay (where it meets the floor area) were packed with debris. After the wires were removed, I stuck a screw driver into it and found two REALLY BIG mud dauber nests! These nest...

Slowly moving along..
I am a firm believer in the idea that adding deadlines to personal projects makes the car you own end up owning you.
..that, and I work in a body repair and restoration facility, so pressure and deadlines make the whole thing feel too much like "work."

Re: Circuit breakers (2-3)
That's the "Swiss Army Vehicles" part.. Arkansas gives it away.
It won't fit a Hafi properly.
I'm good for now. Jim LaGuardia/Goatwerks hooked me up with one.

Re: Steyr-Puch Haflinger Pathfinder owners group on Facebook
Facebook has it's issues, but it's so darn easy to manage. Photo upload is a snap. Connecting to other members is easy.
I just thought it would be cool to have an easy place for Pathfinder owners to link to.

Re: Ebay - Haflinger Bits is Aust - Ambitious or Reasonable
Is "running chassis" an Aussie term? ..'cause that doesn't look like it is going to "run" anywhere.
Does he mean "rolling chassis?"
It could be a fun project, or a nightmare of unobtainable parts.

Quick update; New or refurbished lights and reflectors are purchased. New Bosch trailer plug also in hand. Eberspacher removed and stowed (that is a project in itself) Last of the electric components removed, but for the dash mounted bits. My Hafi lived its whole life in the Utah desert, and it show...

1st, please update your profile to include your location.
2nd, welcome!
3rd, let's say I have ordered the 5 piece kit a few weeks ago. I'll let you how great it is once I see it, but I am beginning to wonder if it will ever happen.. Caveat emptor, parens fututor!

Re: Rear Number plate lights
Yeah, this has been going around a bit..
The Hella light listed might fit, but I don't think it's correct.
The orig light is body grounded and excepts 1 hot lead.

Rear wheel brake cylinder applications
Does anyone know how many different kind of rear wheel brake cylinders were produced for the Haflinger? My Haflinger Pathfinder has a very leaky right rear unit, so in in the market.. I keep seeing ads for rear units on Bonanza.Com and EBay that list remanufactured Haflinger 7/8" 22.22mm units....

Dash panel lamps.. Hella part#?
Anyone know the Hella part #s for the original warning lamps on the dash panel?
Hella seems to be making a few units even today, but I'm not sure if the ones I have been seeing out there are a match.
All my lights are ok, but only 1 has a red cover. I need red and green ones.

Re: Towing a Haflinger on a trailer
Strapping the body down and loading the suspension is safer, so the trailer doesn't oscillate with the sway of the loose upper weight.
Look for Kei truck covers on the inter-webs. They shouldn't be that pricy.
