I may be interested in hitting the trails with you guys. I'll probably head up Friday night and stay overnight. What trail difficulty are you planning?

Just ordered a TBI kit, hopefully it will be in this week.

I miss that place. I heard locals still wheel it all the time, but I digress on that topic

I think I am getting old, because I see a lot of commercials these days and wonder what the hell the company is thinking. The term "know your customer" comes to mind.

I can't believe the price of new Jeeps, but they don't appear to be having any difficulty selling them. I feel like I see more Jeeps than ever on the road.

Pep boys on rt 40 in bear has them in stock. Both 48 & 60in

I forgot this is memorial day weekend, I wont be able to make it.

All breeds is coming up soon, there were a few there last year.

im interested If i can get my rig together in time

Need some more info. Do you run a temp gauge? and if so, does your trans run hot all the time, or just when you put stress on it. I run a seperate stacked plate cooler from derale on a dedicated trail rig, with its own electric fan. Some guys say that you shouldnt run a trans cold all the time either, but I dont put enough miles on mine to make a difference.

This is for the street Jeep, so I am looking for a nice smooth ride. I did a quick Google search and it looks like the soa would involve new drive shafts and steering mods, not sure I want to go that far yet. I may just do a small shackle lift to make myself feel good until I'm ready to rip into a bigger project. Im in the middle of a cam swap and 4:1 kit on the crawler....trying to get it done so I can get back out on the trails soon.

I have never gone spring over, never really thought about it. I'll look into it. Thanks deadfeat, I'll keep that in mind.

Ok, I must have 2.5 in springs on there now. Thanks for the info, I'll change my original post to 4in springs.

I know its kind of a long shot, but I figured I would ask before I buy new. I currently have CJ springs on it, but would be willing to make the simple conversion if someone has YJ springs.

5x5.5?

Im pretty sure Accurate used to specialize in the 4.0.

Hey,

I finally made it through last week. I used the weather stipping that you put on the bottom of a garage door. It worked perfect. I appreciate the offer.

I attempted to braze an aluminum fan shroud, since my mig welder does not have the option to add a spool gun. It did not work out well for me. I ended up riveting the shroud together. I found the melting point of the aluminum angle to be too close the the brazing rod that I was using.

Im looking. 5x5.5 is not a very common bolt pattern anymore. I am going to hit Home Depot today to see if I can find something that I can use as a fender flare extension. I am hoping i can find something smaller, due to the fact that I am using stock CJ flares.
