Yo, T-man, what's the good news? And to be frank, have you tried marijuana for the pain. I'm curious because I did and I actually felt worse being high as a kite. The only thing that's ever helped me has been Perkisets. I have no idea how to spell that. Sorry. Hey good luck man!

Absolutely man. That's what Martin Luther King woulda done. I'm gald there's still peacefull people in this world. :thumbsup:

I'm sorry to hear about the way the owner treated you man. Seems like just another case of nookie depravation to me. May GAWD have mercy on his soul. And if ya want for $500 or a decent lift kit and an adress we can fix his attitude problem. Just kidding.

Oil Leak + low oil pressure
chicofuentes0224 replied to Ben-88Comanche's topic in MJ Tech: Modification and Repairs
Careful with that Way, brake clearer works good and will take off more then just grime, but paint, and might melt some plastics and rubbers..(not the prevention kind,, I know you all to well :D ) Another thing is thats stuff is very flammable, so don't use it when your engine is running, and disco your batt.. just to be on the safe side... Exactly what JT said, I know, that's why I put a disclaimer on the bottom. It'll melt the rubber and plastic too. Just keep it all covered up. Only use it on the metal. You know what, better yet. Don't even use it. Get some degreaser, a tooth brush and a couple old rags you lazy @$$ :rotfl2: -
Check LEAD NOT FOLLOW's bulid thread. He used XJ bumper brackets to mount them inside the side of his bed. It looks good.

Oil Leak + low oil pressure
chicofuentes0224 replied to Ben-88Comanche's topic in MJ Tech: Modification and Repairs
Ben, change the valve cover gasket. It's cheap, (make sure you get a good gasket) I think i read a lot of people have used cork and RTV, don't quote me though. Either search or ask what they used. I bet ya 75% of your problems go away just doing that. My truck also leaks a little oil from the cap. Don't know why. I've tried three differnt caps, all new. I guess the hole just got bigger over time. Maybe we could find a cap with a thicker seal or maybe it's just time to put a new valve cover on. Anyway, change the gasket and clean the area real well with a degreaser. I used brake cleaner when the engine was hot cuz the grime just melts away and evaporates with the heat. Don't believe the rear main seal leak yet. Four differnt mechanics told me mine needed replaced and it ended up being that oil was leaking right outta the back of the valve cover gasket, dripping down the engine, hitting my downpipe, causing a mess, and that smoke your describing. Once I cleaned it up really well back there and kept wiping it off all of a sudden my "rear main seal leak" went away. Good luck. Ps. How much oil are you losing? PSS. Don't use the brake cleaner idea unless you ask a profesional first. I don't know if it's safe. I just use it cuz I hate scrubbing and I have no patience. -
Whatever happened to that one guy on here that had the roof chopped off his?

Ty in the engine bay on the fire wall, inbetween the two connecters there's a bolt. I can'tremember the size, but you need a deep socket, a universal pivoting joint and an extension to make your life easy. The two sides (inside and out ) will seperate. Then there's two screws caddycorner to each other that you undo and both sides will pop out. Good luck

Ford Ranger light bar on my MJ...
chicofuentes0224 replied to BLHTAZ's topic in MJ Tech: Modification and Repairs
I really like the bar B-boy. The only thing I would change if it were on my truck would be to take the two bars that go toward the back of the cab and somehow cut and reweld them so they would go toward the side of the bed more or get bolted to the tops of wheel wells. And only because I constantly haul crap in mine and I think that set-up would make me lose a lot of space. Besides that, looks great and good luck :D -
MJ 3800 camaro powered
chicofuentes0224 replied to JeepcoMJ's topic in Member Projects: Your Comanches
Man , I love those push bars. I'm so coppying you guys and getting one soon. Gongrats on gettin back on the road Pat. -
First go with the KBB blue book value. Then forget what he's done externally to the truck since you don't like it anyway and it means crap to you. Next check his mechanical records, either homebrewed or done by a "professional" . Once we see all this and pics we can give you a better idea on price. Ask how old the RE lift kit is and ask for receipts. If it's newer (less than a year old) I'd say that bumps the price up $500. Older and just fugettaboutit. Don't let him add money for the rims and bumpers since your gonna change em anyway. Let's see some pics and what mileage he's got.

Good eye Maddzzy. Right, now somebody buy Jeepco a plane ticket and have him fly out there and haggle the price down to $2.37. Eagle got it. LADIES AND GENTLEMEN, WE HAVE ANOTHER IDIOT! :D

what to look for?
chicofuentes0224 replied to heffercow's topic in MJ Tech: Modification and Repairs
Well if that your cherokee in your avatar I'm sure you already know about any mechanical problems jeeps can have. Then if you have time, start at the latest tech thread and read backwards to the beginning of 2006. You'll find almost evrything that you need to look out for. Don't laugh, I'm being serious. I did it. -
First off, I'm already pissed off at the movie. The sign on his upper right arm is NOT SUPPOSE TO BE THERE! that should be hidden on his inner forearm, covered so no one can see it. Man is the master and Storm Shadow going to get pissed off. Second Sgt. Slaughter isn't even a real GI Joe. Please don't ask me to elaborate or I'm actually gonna have to dust off the comic collection and reread every friggin issue to remember why I'm saying this :rotfl2:

Let's just say I blow the whole engine because I'm driving the truck 75 MPH for 10 hours straight and it's never seen more than 20 miles straight at a time while I've owned it. I GOTTA DRIVE 612 MILES EACH WAY. I break down right outside the badlands. I would not try to replace my engine on the shoulder of the highway and I don't think AAA covers more than 100 miles even if ya got the plus membership. So unless Wade or Pat throws an extra 4.0 in the back of their bed, I would probably just drop it off at the local yahoo so he could rip me off. NOT. Hence the trailer from PA to the badlands just to be safe. Now, when I finally get around to dropping a remanufactured engine in the son o gun. I'll drive from South Beach in Miami to Portland, no worries. But not with my engine that has 200 some thousand miles and was not takin care of for the last 20 years. Plus with my luck I'd bring 223 differnt tools with me and the only one i would need wouldn't be in the tool box :eek:
-
I would trailer it. Especially since your taking your kid. Always better to be safe than sorry. As for my situation I'm still gettin 10 mpg. One of these days I'll post up a project section on every thing I've replaced on my truck and what I still have to get done. I would also trailer it just in case just to be safe, but don't have anything to tow with or a trailer so I'd probably rent something adding to my bill. Remember I'll be on the road 10 to twelve hours each way which means 3 meals times 3 to 4 days. Restaurants are expensive nowadays. I should know I own one. $200 bucks includes tent fees and hotel rooms in case we need to stop for some reason. I forgot, someone will probably come with me. And I'd love to have a daily driver that I can take off road when I want, but because of work I don't have the luxury of breaking down somewhere in flat but Ohio, waiting for a tow truck, having him rip me off and then trying to find a mechanic that will rip me off and probably not even know what a Comanche is. But, just to be optimistic, I will do my darndest to get in gear and somehow get everything done by July to make it. Everybody else, GOOD LUCK & HAPPY HUNTING!

Can't go this year. I just figured out the math. 612 miles from my house with the MJ getting 10 MPG is about 61 gallons of gas at 3.25 equals $200 times two ways, equals $400 plus $200 on fees and lodging plus $180 on food, plus $20 on rum plus who know what else? (Are there any casinos or strip joints on the way? :D ) Brings my grand total to about $1000 :eek: not counting any parts I break along the way or wheeling. I should probably spend that on the lift anyways this year. BUUUT, if you guys are still around next year, I should be ready and will definately see you there :thumbsup: Hey, to all going. Good luck, have fun, and may the force be wit ya!!!!

Sorry, but you are wrong. The back of the title form is a legal transfer of ownership document. Once the name of a buyer is filled in and the seller signs and dates it, that is a legal document that says ownership has been transferred to the person listed as the buyer. (In this case, the aforementioned "moron," although in this case he's really not a moron because he didn't do anything wrong.) The fact that the transfer of ownership has not been recorded at the DMV does not make it invalid, "wrong," or nonexistent. Let's say the original owner (the "seller" on the title form) were to show up at the moron's house and try to take the MJ back. The moron calls the cops. The cops say "Who owns the vehicle?" The seller says "I do." The moron shows them the title form, dated 8 months ago, with the seller's signature that he sold the truck to the moron. Who do you think the cops are going to say owns the truck? I think Brg lives in PA ,where I'm not sure but I believe you have to get it notarized or it doesn't mean squat. That might mean that the "moron" would get screwed in PA unless it was notarized. Maybe that's why BRG thinks that . :dunno: Edit:sorry didnt read the rest of the post. :oops:
