Any pictures of the whole thing? All it looks like there is that you just need to line up the holes. Willy

There is no such thing as a rare Jeep. Jeeps are meant to be used. Not much is sadder than a Jeep that never leaves the garage or pavement to enjoy a trail. Willy

Yes, there is. Click the link in my previous post and you'll find lots of owner pics. Willy

I thought there were already threads for these? :hmm: Pics Owners Willy

Is the Dodge CAD D60 even worth using? Is there a one piece shaft that will work to replace CAD side or do you have to get a custom shaft? Willy

Wow! :eek: It's just a joke. Do you really believe everything you are told or read? You do realize that this is a satirical commentary of how Jeep alienated their own very loyal customers and diluted their own brand by slapping Jeep badges on cars and minivans? Maybe all those grown men should voice their opinions to the company that destroyed their hopes instead of getting angry at some guys who share their disappointment and tried to give everybody a good laugh. :rotfl2: Willy

My suspicions are that all the MJ tanks are the same size. The capacity difference is determined by the vent location. I know on YJs there was an option for larger capacity. The tanks were the same size, but with the smaller capacity was installed a vent tube extension that extended lower in the tank. This prevented filling the tank past the lowered vent tube level. If you paid extra for the larger capacity option they left the extension off allowing you to fill the tank more. :roll: I would guess they did the same thing with MJs. This would have been a lot cheaper than building two different sizes of tanks. One of these days I want to drop the tank to confirm this and reroute the vent tube for more capacity. Willy

After the first couple of wheeling trips I knew the rear bump stops were lacking. This became even more apparent when we hauled several loads of gravel for some local trail maintenance. I had stacked up some scrap metal strips as an attempt at a quick fix that lowered the bump stops about an inch, but more was definitely needed. I made some extensions that lower the bump stops about 3". We'll see how these do. Willy

Yes

No

Is that a photochop or did somebody actually build that monstrosity? :ack: Willy

I didn't notice any differences besides more holes for a RHD steering box on the later models. I've used the same tow hook brackets on '90, '94, and '98 XJs. Willy

Like this: :thumbsup: That's definitely the one I would recommend. I've got that one and another that doesn't have the double finger trigger. My index finger still cramps if I use the one with the single finger trigger long enough. But, something to watch out for with the one pictured is that it doesn't work too well on some nozzles that have a wide spray pattern. Some of the spray with get caught in the attachment and drip out making a huge mess. Especially if you are painting from above. Willy

Treks has this one for the same price. I wouldn't even consider anything from Rusty's when it is offered by a reputable company for the same price. Of course, I wouldn't even consider anything from Rusty's if it was cheaper either. :nuts: Treks also offers HD belly pans if you want a nice skid plate to protect the transmission and transfer case instead of just a cross member.

It handles great on the highway. Willy

I always enjoy their April fools articles. It's great that one magazine doesn't take themselves too seriously and realizes that it is all about having a good time. Willy

That gives absolutely no details about what is included in the kit. Plus, the picture is completely wrong. That's a S-10 Blazer they show with the Comanche kit. :huh???: I would keep looking. Willy

That's too bad. You had the only 4WD tank top I could find. I wore it all the time when I lived in TX. I rarely get to wear it anymore except on vacation somewhere warm. Willy

No, as you can see here there is plenty of other stuff holding the fender on. Willy

I completely removed them. Willy

Look closer, that bumper is far from simple. ;) Willy

I built this one. Details in my build thread. Willy

This is what I did on the driver side. - The front two bolts are 1/2" grade 8. They go through the same holes as the front bolts of the stock bumper bracket. Get rid of those psuedo captured nut things and use regular nuts on the back side. - The next bolt is metric. It is the rear bolt from the stock bumper bracket. This attaches to a nut welded to the inside of the unirail. - The next three are the steering box bolts. This accomplishes the same thing as a C-Rok or TNT steering box brace by spreading out the forces over a much larger area. - The last bolt is grade 8 through an existing hole in the unirail. I think it is 5/8" - basically as big as I could fit through that hole. Here is the passenger side. Besides the steering box bolts, it uses the same holes as the driver side. If you plan on using the bumper for recovery or a winch you need to at least use the three stock bumper bracket bolts, run the bracket along the unirail, and use the large bolt through the rear at minimum. I also tied the brackets into the sway bar mounts on both sides. Willy

After way too much time spent with a hole saw, the tail lights are done. Willy
