Qui Gon-Jinn replied to brdhntr's topic in The Pub
Welcome.. Anytime I hear about a guy with a daughter.. The song "Cleaning My Gun" By Rodney Atkins comes to mind http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JeA5RKysQP4 Sit and have a few.. Relax. -
BLHTAZ a job would be a start.. A bottomless bottle of 40 creek.. and a lifetime supply of Pepsi.. 80k in cash.. so I can buy the house I want.. and have 10k extra to enclose the carport to make a shop out of.. back in reality.. a new mobo and cpu for my computer.. and the wife to stop the damn smoking. Step-Daughter gets Wally-Clause delivery on Wed for her gifts.. damn wife's ex husband won't take the kid to the store so sending gift cards is a waste.. so.. thats what I have to say.

I think your cooling system is a quart low. You will need a left handed screwdriver to get the cap off the filler jug.

posted my solution I found yesterday in that thread.. welcome.. can I take off the "FNG" hat now?
-
If you want a chat.. I can set up a Permanent one. just say so.. it's not that hard.. and.. well.. I like doing that stuff.

I wanted to make one.. but.. time.. and work.. and the wife being sick.. has thrown that out.. I went to Autozone yesterday for wiper blades for the yearly rain here in Phoenix and found the $10 solution. Not as pretty.. but works.. MFG is "Hoppy" it's the "Spillmaster Twin" fits RIGHT in the space between the seat and the console.. and holds my 44oz Whataburger cup very nicely. mine was $9.99 Just my $.02.. And don't drink and drive.. you'll spill your beer..

Got to walk the JY with my dad.. he's looking for a Left Front Turn signal Lens/marker for his 99 Ram. I picked up a tail light harness for my truck. got a Black "Jeep" wheel center cover (3/4 now..) a very nice Red dashmat, a 4.0L Emblem. Looked at about 10 Cherokee's for a nice set of seats. found none. Cost out the door was $14.75. Got back to my dad's ( I don't have a nice concrete driveway like he does to work on) and we spliced in the harness to what was left of the old one on my tuck. I now have REAL tail lights. (Pics to come). I will post this in the "Classifieds" as well.. but if anyone needs the License plate light harness ( 2 plugs to 2 lights) for their truck it's yours for shipping. I didn't use it since I have a custom bumper with the chassis ground single wire. So a day in the JY.. and then working on the MJ. Next few things.. Spare Tire "Carrier" needs to be replaced.. Seats maybe.. Trailer wiring.. and the list goes on.

Pizza.. a buck per pie. Dine in.. depends.. 0-? Today wife and I where at Village Inn for lunch.. $20.65 bill. $25.00 left. Waitress was one of my favorites. She's nice.. prompt.. and even knew our drink order.. only ask to confirm. We go about 3-4 times a month since it's across the street.

You should try taking it here... http://www.heartattackgrill.com/photos.htmlDon't know if the wife would approve though ;) :cheers: well.. that is 20 miles from my house. 10 miles in that direction is my work 10 miles THE OTHER way is her work.. so.. I would drive 30.. she would drive 50.. and then beat me to death. I want to go there.. :D

a "Apnea" is when you stop breathing in your sleep. Personally last test showed 60-80 per hour average for me. One easy way to find out if your at risk.. what size dress shirt do you wear.. 15.. 17.. your ok.. 18.. or like me 22.. your at risk. It's serious. Causes stress on your heart and can kill you. I fight it every day. It sucks.. and every time I try to go do something about it I get tied up with other things. As it is now I have a mask and machine.. but I can't sleep more than a few hours with it and I am ripping it off. Looking into a oral appliance that will open my airways. Also going to need some nasal surgery and my throat cut open to allow more airflow. Just like a truck.. if it's airway is restricted it doesn't run..
-
post frm cell phone since computer died on me. anyway. I have had sleep ania for 6 years. tried 2 different masks. nasal and full face. neither work for me. was due to have surgery then wife had a bout of kidney stones. I average 3 hours of sleep if that a night. I never get to deep sleep and never dream. best of luck man.

was late.. so maybe not clear Slowing down from 65mph if I just press the clutch and the brakes brakes I get violent shake in the front end. Slowing from 65 if I put it in 4th gear and with the clutch engaged I press the brakes I get no shake so with transmission engaged no shake without the transmission engaged I get a hell of a nasty shake. I can compensate for it by downshifting. Really would like to just know what it is. On a side not. At regular surface street speeds (30-45 here) I can disengage the transmission and press the brakes and there is NO WOBBLE. (thus why I think it's the bushings)
-
It's not the DeathWobble.. I have been told that it's the Control arm bushings. Need some other opinions. Get on the freeway here. drive.. all is cool. Get off the freeway go from 60ish.. apply brakes and I get the WTF Wobble. If I shift to 4th.. let the clutch out and apply brakes to about 30.. then clutch in and neutral and brake.. I am fine.. but without the downshift.. WTF Wobble is nasty.. bounces the front end nicely. So.. Opinions.

Agree with you.. to an extent. I have friends and co-workers.. and I have the myspace/facebook/linkedin as well. Twitter is more "Micro-Blogging" I have used it for some time and I find it spans the topics. I have one friend who I use to work with how is into web comics. She would never visit a truck forum. Others are playing WoW.. and still others are web dev people. It allows the crossing of topics. Updates go to my cellphone from friends. I keep up on people. Personally I have it set to use a free app on my Windows Mobile phone..so my phone doesn't blow up all day every day. It's a cool thing to use to pass a min or two. If I am waiting for something.. or standing in a line. I just grab my phone and see what my friends are doing. The web and the internet are here for the long haul. I knew that back in 94 when I first logged in on a text only interface from the high school library. The internet keeps growing and becoming more intagrated into our lives. Just 15 years ago the only real way to find out about things like MJ's was to read it in the book or magazine. You couldn't really talk to a guy who was 1800 miles away about how he fixed the death wobble. To each their own. off to walk the swapmeet on a nice 45 degree sunday morning.. woot.

Computer Guy.. so I use the web and other "Tech" things Twitter seems to be a great tool. Check it out at www.twitter.com/quigonjinn add me.. and maybe we can start a #MJ tag and share our love for the MJ's.

First. The one regret. I didn't buy a Jeep sooner. (Can't say you all don't agree) Second. What I have learned. It's a Jeep. It's nothing like any other car or truck I have had. It's a machine designed to do a job and do it better than anything else out there. I have got to wrench on it a bit. I am not an mechanic by any means I am a computer guy. I work with my hands on a keyboard and mouse. Most "Tools" I use are a screwdriver. The Comanche is not the easiest thing to work on but it's not as bad as other vehicals I have worked on. This forum and the knowledge that is here is worth so much more. These forums are full of people who love their trucks and love to work on them and share what they know and learn. I spend at least an hour a day if not more reading on here. I search topics and usually find something worth reading.. then it leads to another find.. and so on. What starts as a Clutch Master Cylinder turns into Seats and then stereo and then electrical.. and so on. I love the truck.. and I surely won't be leaving the forums soon. Trying to convince my dad to buy an 87 Cherokee that is for sale on CL here in Phx. it's a 4.0 w/ 4x4. really nice. would be perfect for towing the boat and the weekend driver that he wants. Jeep has impressed me. I have had 3 Dakota's and I do enjoy them but they don't come close to what I have found in my $500 Comanche.

Ahh this is where my Knowledge comes in.. First.. Malware.. on the right track. My list o good programs. Adaware Spybot search and destory HijackThis and the "Hijack This log reader" Spyware Blaster AVG anti-Virus That is the "Basic Coctail" I use on most any pc. If you have some other misc infection there are specific stuff out there for each issue. Get the software form somewhere with a good rep (I use www.majorgeeks.com) so you know your getting the real deal not some crap that will just do more harm. This a friend from another fourm's site.. but he has a more or less walk through http://soldcentralfl.com/flyingpenguin/ ... oval.shtml enjoy.

Heh, I play all those games. We may need to go head to head one day in a CS:S knife fight :thumbsup: Catch me on Steam.. ID is either QuiGonJinn QuiGon-Jinn or.. Qui Gon-Jinn.. I think it's the last one.. What maps do you play on DOD? I usually only play on the orange maps on the Texas Militia server. I actually think i recall your name a few times. My Steam ID is Rising Killer. Been a while.. I am not at home now (at dad's.. going to look at a truck for him) and will check when I get home..
