I might be getting ahead of my self. but the sunroof was caulked shut. the motor for it works. seems that the gasket was junk. how do i check this? do they still sell the gasket? going to cut the caulk and see what happens. worst that can happen is I got to caulk it back up.....lol


many thanks

ok so I got it apart. the window is pretty rusty. dont know why it only goes 4" and stops. and I cant find a blown up to see what is all involved in fixing. so will be going to bone yard for that one. found some. 225.00 or less. so im going to caulk back up and wait till I see if im keeping it or not. I probably will since It could be a cool trail rig.


many thanks

The sunroof seals were still available for Gen1 (>91) trucks up until 2 years ago when I last bought mine -still havent replaced it yet btw.

If you need a new sunroof unit, i still have a spare one in the garage, but as you know it is REALLY big and REALLY heavy. The spare sunroof also will need new seals eventually, but if you need parts because yours is rusty, this one will do you real well. No rust from what I recall, just a little dirt.

Send me a PM if itnerested.

Try to get your seals from parts.com or mitsubishiparts.net

What year is your rig? There are factory service manuals covering most rigs (either very similar or identical model years) on mitsubishilinks.com that you can download for the cost of your connection. <img src="/forums/images/graemlins/kewl.gif" alt="" />

I'm not sure if this helps but these sunroofs do stop at intervals.

Mine stops about 6 inches open, then stops again about 6 inches from fully open, then finally stops at full open. So there are three intervals of travel.

Again this may have nothing to do with your problem....jsut saying. <img src="/forums/images/graemlins/cheers.gif" alt="" />

No payment required. I was able to download fine. Perhaps your firewall is preventing you from being able to download from it?

ok it wouldnt let me do the 92 but would let me do the 92-95!!!!! but still didnt get me the detail that I needed. I understand it has cables that run from the front and go to back side. so does the cable push and pull? I guess Im going to have to pull down and look for myself. that should be fun...lol thanks


many thanks
