hijack. my friends dad is going to get me into the carpenters union and get me a job next week, when he gets back from las vegas. i am pretty stoked about it.

yeah really. i even considered getting a cherokee myself, but i would much rather have a comanche.

but i doesn't happen at different speeds. same speed always, just doesn't always happen. it starts at 40mph and stops when you hit about 51mph.

i was talking to my dad about getting bigger tires on. he said that no one would put bigger tires on, just the recommend or oem size. i guess some place put some bigger tires on some guys truck and the guy ended up getting killed or hurt. and i am pretty sure someone sued someone about the whole thing. i don't know if that went all over the country or just in a few states. but some places are hesitant about it now, so they won't put over sized tires on your vehicles.

i don't know, i wouldn't know if that effects it or not. my dad told me not to worry about it if i am trying to sell it. but if i can get a job. then i won't sell it. i will keep it.

well if it was the tire balance wouldn't it happen all the time rather than some of the time. it hardly ever happens when i let the truck warm up all the way. if i don't let the truck warm up any then it'll shake every time i reach 40 to 50 mph until the engine is warmed up all the way.

well it's not the tires. my dad and i checked it out today. it's not a wobble though, it's like a shaking. up and down. not side to side.

yeah i was thinking the same. don't have to cash right now though. if i can get a full time job here soon. i will probably take out a loan to get this other truck. that way i can build my credit up. i don't have any credit built up. then i don't have to worry about fixing up my 86 right now. though i am trying to sell it anyways. but it would sweet if i could get the other mj without selling the one i have.

tires are pretty worn. i would say there's about 10% of tread left.

it doesn't start shaking when i hit any bumps. i didn't check too much. i just grabbed a few things around the wheels and under the front and pulled and pushed and yanked but nothing felt loose. could the alignment play a part? snows coming down pretty good today and it's too damn cold to be outside so i am going to put it off until it is half way decent outside.

it's a "f8ck now what's broken" thing. sometimes it will quit shaking but it feels like you slightly speed up then you slow down, and then it shoots you off and runs smooth. the right tire seems to have picked up a squeak when turning left. don't know what that is all about.

i will go over it tomorrow, it's too wet outside right now and not enough lighting, and pretty damn cold. my drive way is all iced over so i keep slippin all over the place. i checked a few things grabbing and shaking and pulling and pushing. nothing was loose. how do you know if it is an engine sputtering type shake?

when reaching speeds of 40 to 50 mph the truck starts shaking. now at first i thought it had something to do with the cold weather, because i let the truck warm up all the way before driving it and it doesn't shake. i still think that could be an issue but i don't know so that's the problem. i was talking to some guy today about it, he said he had three comanches before this last one. and one of them did that. i don't remember what exactly he said but he said it had to do with something being loose around the wheel areas. don't exactly remember what he said it was. but he said he replaced them and it quit shaking. need help quick so i can fix it.

like the color. good looking truck all around.

found one in much better shape. though it doesn't have 4wd. i am going to look at this one tomorrow if the guy emails me back tonight to give me his address. i am probably going to put a deposit on it for him to hold it for me until i sell my truck. he said this truck has been taking care of very carefully. hopefully i don't find out different when i look at it. Image Not Found picture is a bit blurry though.

there's no rust either. it's a 4.0L manual trans. i am going to go look at it this weekend. i'll bring back some pictures.

"its got a pretty good size rip in the driver seat and its got alot of dent in it but runs like a champ. its got some ok sized dents. ts got some 31 mtrs on it with a 2in lift and a locked rear end so far.... and no holes that I'm aware of. its a wheeler but is still street legal" that's what the guy has said to me about it so far. still waiting on more info.

http://seattle.craigslist.org/tac/car/536889958.html what do you guys think about this one? i could do without the flames though.

ahh that's right. i remember my dad telling me about using a magnet for checking something on a vehicle but couldn't remember what it was. now i know what it was.

i have heard that magnet thing before but don't remember what for.

haha nope. but they sure do for the patriots. :yes: how many games are left until the big day?

that's right. Patriots will kick gbs @$$ if they make it. i think another super bowl victory is in store for the Patriots this year. :D but :cheers: to whoever plays this year. yeah but the Pack have 1 thing the Pats don't..... BRETT FAVRE :D true, but the packers don't have Tom Brady :brows:
