Yeah I'm aware of it, but I'll have the space and time now... and I only need to get some area's.

And yeah Cliff answered it, that would be the P/S cooler setup. Is that only on a 95+ model?

My friend had a Craftsman bucket feed sandblaster. I used it and it was a nice set up, but I think the nozzle was cheap. It didn't pin point anything. Get the best nozzle you can buy. My compressor is a big Craftsman stand up that I paid 450 bucks for(got a good deal), so I have no problems with psi or cfm. I have to point the finger at that nozzle. If there was a way to put one of those plastic cones that they put around a dogs head when they get stiches on the nozzle that would cut down the mess. Or something smaller. You would have to empty it out alot.

Yeah, I have a bucket feed one now, but I'm thinking about getting a newer one that has a better nozzle... I think this one is rather cheap. Either way I'm only going to hit were I see more rust coming in, that means I didn't prep/remove what was there before... Its not like I'm blasting the whole underbody :)

I hear ya! Just remember to spray yourself off before you go inside. I'd hate to hear that you brought a ton of sand into that new house. It's had to get it out of the carpet. :)

My 91 had it, but it wasn't exactly in factory original condition by the time I got it...

Strange, my 94 has no such animal. Maybe it's one of those things they did away with then brought back, sort of like seat belts in the doors.....
