  1. makes sense to me. :thumbsup:
  2. Possibly a Cherokee Limited? Also where the seats came out of? leather... woodgrain... idiot lights?
  3. a reaction generally requires some real medicine. but there are a plethora of ways to relieve bee sting pain. raw onion is one that works. just cut a slice and put it on the area. when I tried it, the pain went away instantly. take it off and the pain returned. it was like a smelly on-off switch for the pain. :dunno:
  4. doesn't have much bearing on the OP, but this is the current setup on my 88:
  5. for plain bee stings? or for hives?
  6. got 4wd?
  7. still, it's very good to know that. if you had been further away from help, you might have died. :(
  8. my 'puter is pluggin' away in a similar manner as my 86 MJ. It "works", but you'd better not be in a hurry. :D I'm hoping that the extra ram and 2.0 ports will make it less painful for the user.
  9. gotta be something with photobucket. the image's size on my screen is 639x476. nothing wrong with that size. :thumbsup: the limit at the forums is like 1100 across.
  10. nope. Renix was just MJs and XJs. YJs went straight from carbs in 90 to Chrysler injection in 91. ZJs didn't pop up til 93. did you post a wanted ad in the classifieds here?
  11. how do you know it was hydrolocked and not simply stalled from water shorting out something? did you find water inside the cylinders?
  12. 2.0 ports are in and they are blazing fast. :D transferred 1 gig in under a minute instead of like 10. still waiting on my wifi antenna and ram. oh, and it looks like my computer was built in 2000. still hummin' along. :typing: (loudly I might add. still need to swap out that fan)
  13. different years/models might have different locations.
  14. enough to warrant moving the perches. if you force the leafs to match the XJ axle, you'll destroy the bushings in the leafs. It's been done.

  17. should be a simple shim adjustment. :thumbsup:

    The Dana 50 is a bastard axle. Fords bright idea to save a few pounds over the Dana 60 (yes, as a rule of thumb, the higher the number, the bigger the differential) by going with a slightly smaller differential. It's still wicked heavy. I don't think they are literally Dana 44 guts though. I seem to remember the guts were specific to Dana 50s (and there's not a whole heck of a lot of support for them so plan ahead with what you want to do with it before buying). It's a wide axle. you'll want to get a 10.25 or 10.5 ford rear to match it. I'm not sure anyone even makes a 5 lug to metric 8 lug adapter. :dunno: TTB - twin traction beam. Ford's weird IFS used under F-150/broncos and even some of the bigger trucks in the 80s I find the best info at forums, where there are lots of guys just itchin' to jump on any misinformation. :D I think most of my Dana 50 info came from pirate4x4.

    Post Pics?

    also, I don't bother with any of those fancy schmancy pre-made addresses the photo sites provide. I click on the photo till it's the size I want to see on the forums, then right click and choose "copy image location". I paste that here, highlight it, then click on the IMG tag so it looks like this: (I added a couple spaces so you can see the text rather than the photo): Image Not Found

    x2 on the bandwidth. as we sit now, we can get away with a reasonably cheap annual hosting fee. and as stated, the forum software we use is a freeware program. I use picturetrail.com for my photos. :thumbsup:

    if it's from an Excursion, then it's high pinion, drivers side diff, solid axle, and has the 8 bolt metric pattern. :thumbsup: not sure on the exact width, but it's pretty wide. you'll need a late model ford rearend (just look for the same bolt pattern) to match. stock gears were 3.73, 4.10 or 4.30
