    Would be interested in brakes if drums, wheel cylinders, shoes are in good condition. Thanks

    Honestly these parts are all still available new through RockAuto at prices I wouldn't be able to compete with. I think that would be better anyways than saving pennies on the dollar on used brake components.

    Good luck!

    Re: PARTING OUT: 1986 DX Van

    Hello hello - bummer about the tap water.... I'm pretty sure that's what led to all of my coolant system woes too, but we're making progress.

    Do you think the throttle body is salvageable if I'm willing to put in the elbow grease/de-rusting work...? Is it super corroded? How about the heater core.... my guess is no but thought I'd check.

    I'd also be interested in hearing what the coolant system and radiator look like to you since it sounds like a more advanced decline than what I'm dealing with and I'd love to get ahead of any future corrosion issues I may encounter since these vans have a li'l trouble staying cool in the first place...

    The entire cooling system was compromised, none of it was salvageable and it all got tossed, throttle body included. Good luck in your search.

    In other news, the van is off to the afterlife. As before, I've held onto some parts that I know will be requested down the line, but otherwise mods please lock this thread, its a wrap!

    Some pictures of the van in it's final, sad state before the scrapper came to put her out of her misery.









    Thanks again to Tim and the mods for hosting the site as well as everyone who bought parts and helped out along the way!

    Nice job picking the van apart!! Yes the thread will be closed.

    One last parts request if it’s still available-

    Both rear hatch hinges and bolts look like they’re still there, if you have the time can you please pull them.

    Thank you
