  1. Whats that tuner cleaner?? carb cleaner?
  2. A good friend of mine is workin in TX but his Jeep has a busted rearend in MO. He said he doesn't know a good place to get it fixed at so I told him I'd ask some of you fellows He said the pinion bearing gone, needs seals, pinion and ring, gear was shreaded. Any help???
  3. Nice.. Is that state protected?? or just undeveloped? I'd hate to see that hill with houses dotted all over it.
  4. Man you live there?? Thats some kinda beautiful... I'd love to take a pee off the back deck there!! What??
  5. I think the best way so far is by a membrane that lets certain molecules pass and others are stripped away. I forget what its called something like isotopic?? membrane ,,, :hmm: Its the way fuel cells work,,, IIRC
  6. From what I've read of that dude is he's very quiet and kinda to himself... I guess so if you think you've solved the worlds energy crisis.... In one video he stated "I have been offered billions of dollars by the Arabs just to sit on this" I would hope he told them to kiss his @$$...... :D
  7. That car did make the hydrogen on board right? That in its self would make it a bit more efficient than pumping stations filling storage tanks.. NO! NO! NO! The busses I spoke of run on liquid hydrogen that is pumped out of a filling station. It is made in a facility that consumes MASSIVE amounts of electricity to make it. The hydrogen is essentially a battery, as electrical energy is used to make it from the water, and then re-released either as heat in combustion or as electricity in a fuel cell. My point is if you make hydrogen on-board (which is what that math exercise is) you will ALWAYS be opperating at a loss. Hence it is NOT WORTHWHILE. In that example we started with a given amount of energy (100%) and through the process of converting it whittled it down to only 13.5% of what it was. 86.5% of it was wasted in the form of losses, IE it did not do any useful work for us. edit: ok :chillin:
  8. Hey if it does fit you should get it powder coated. That thing is rusty... But would look pretty good if powered..
  9. You know come to think about it I used to have a water car... It was (if my childhood memories are correct) a buggy just like that guys.. It had this pump and the body was a big pressure tank. You took this lil bike looking hand pump and pumped it up and man did that thing zing...!!! I can't remember if it used just air and I put water in it or you had to put water in it, but it was messy as he!! and fun to run..Man I wish I remembered the name of that thing.. Like air hopper maybe,,,, :hmm: That car did make the hydrogen on board right? That in its self would make it a bit more efficient than pumping stations filling storage tanks..
  10. I guess we could call the myth busters and ask them to check it out... Plausible?? Maybe,, maybe not. I mean Thomas Edison was a home schooled inventor who after many failures gave us the light bulb among others. The thing about this is does it really bend the conservation of energy?? Take a battery for example, isnt that what he is doing in reverse? Instead of the sulfuric acid acting against lead to produce electricity he is introducing electricity at a disclosed Hz and voltage to separate the hydrogen from the oxygen? Or as stated electrolysis. I have no clue if it is or not possible, but it pushes me to think about the limits and control of the efficiency to where it becomes self sufficient.. I mean damn free energy or over efficient energy is very dangerous. I can't even begin to think how it would destroy everything in existence. Like a chain reaction..BAD... If it works...as this guy states.. IDK I'd have to see it and test it. The bottom line is the process would have to take very precise measurements to find out if it were over efficient. Can you get hydrogen from water? ummm yes. but at a 101% hummmm I pray not. Now do I hit the submit button?? sure why not...
  11. You could get some of that rope light and install in under the lip of the bed around the perimeter of the bed... that'd look pretty cool if done right
  12. I was looking at swapping my rodeo engine a while back and found this list of swaps... now I don't know if this holds true to the Jeeps 2.8 but it list the 3.4 3.8s and the isuzu is a 60* motor.. http://www.comancheclub.com/forums/posting.php?mode=reply&t=7799
  13. Which guy? And I THINK you'll be at about a 3" drop with ZJ rears? The ZJ guys put their stock fronts in the rear to give them about 3" of lift, IIRC. Clearances with the oil pan get bad at about 3" low in the front, I think. I'm sure it can be fixed, but everyone I've ever talked to about it seemed to think it was a 'major' problem. :nuts: I think they just aren't willing to use a sawzall. :eek: I think it was a few back in that sports truck thread... I can't remember, but it was recently cause it was fresh on my mind when I ran into this guy lifting a zj. anyhoot, yeah I can see a issue with clearance right there. but hey the oil pan is metal so it can be welded.. I don't know how the oil level would be compensated if you notched it though. I would like to know how those SCCA trucks were set up.
  14. http://www.pullapart.com Flat rate of like 140 or something like that for a 6 cyl ...... If I'm correct isn't the caddies northstar the same bolt pattern as the 2.8??

    RIPOFF City!

    If your looking to buy online I bought this acer 3500 laptop I'm using online from http://www.tigerdirect.com This computer has been to three deserts, and 5 countries. I have to use an external monitor cause mine got cracked by a kevlar that rolled into the screen. I just upgraded my ram to 2 gb and it still runs STRONG! They have some great deals. I did alot of searching too before I bought this one about 5 years ago. Oh and by the way ram is getting cheaper everyday.

    RIPOFF City!

    Have you upgraded your ram? I'm not 100% but gamers use lots of ram and good videocards. Maybe you should take your computer and just have it up graded
  19. http://www.comancheclub.com/forums/view ... highlight= http://www.comancheclub.com/forums/view ... highlight= http://www.comancheclub.com/forums/view ... highlight= Not sure if any of those show the suspension, but those are his project threads. And he's got one pic on his myspace page as well of it, if you have myspace. Thanks bro,, I found the first one,, I'm still missing alot of fab work on the truck.... like floors and how he tied that frame into the cab... I have lots of s10 parts... 2 or 3 frames too...... nah... to much work... Hey dirty I found some zj rear springs, I'm going to throw them in my mj I'll let you know how much a drop it is... Did that guy ever say what year his springs came out of?
  20. I found a few things from him. I saw his truck tucked with big wheels but none showing the ifs... :cry: edit : http://www.comancheclub.com/forums/viewtopic.php?t=1253&highlight=
  21. Were those mj's in the road race ifs?? They had some major negative camber going on.. Has neone ever put a ifs sub frame in a mj??
  22. That looks really good.. I couldn't use it because the cargo light would get in the way! :D I still think a third brake light would be more useful then the cargo light though.
  23. forgot to mention their a B@%# to put in.... You never said what year and engine size you had...
  24. well partner you could try Napa. they have them for around 30 -50 bucks
