  1. If you've got a CAD, I would do this: -turn on the truck (engine should be on for this test to assure vacuum is available for CAD operation), -shift into 4wd high, -drive like 20 feet just to be sure everything has moved into place (t-case and CAD collar), -block a tire and put truck in park if auto or shift into neutral for manuals, -jack up front/passenger side tire and try to spin it. If the CAD and t-case work properly, then that front tire shouldn't spin. If it moves, then try to rotate the front driveshaft. If the t-case works properly, then the front driveshaft won't move.
  2. Maybe next time you should wheel with the trailer. :brows:
  3. skid plates are reeeeal nice to have on a lowered truck. :yes: lord knows I've run over a thing or two on the road in the R/T.
  4. how'd the trailer hold up? :brows:
  5. :rotf:
  6. welding on all the MJ brackets. also regearing.
  7. are you sure you're in 4wd when in low range?
  8. It is never a bad idea to replace an old radiator or old hoses purely because they are old.
  9. I'd drill out the head of the bolt.
  10. Are you inquiring about the fuse box?
  11. offers of stuff for sale should be done through PMs so as to keep it out of Tech. that's all I'm saying. He should have PMed you the offer. now don't get me wrong, I'm not saying that Rymanrph is this kind of person, but there are some guys that have no shame and will try to sell their crap in tech and the pub and everywhere else and so we have that "rule". We have a classifieds and the ability to send/receive private messages so there's no need to publicly sell stuff in Tech. :cheers:
  12. Or just shim the fork over to engage the cad all the time.
  13. please take all transactions either to the classifieds or to PMs. :thumbsup:
  14. I have a 99 TJ trans in my 88 and it's close, but doesn't touch. Now, mine is a bit different than most since I have a custom crossmember that raises the assembly up a small amount and I snipped off one useless aluminum tab on the corner of the t-case (which might have touched so I cut it off preemptively), but with a stock truck it should all work fine.

  17. not mine. just a photo. But once upon a time I owned a '92 0 miles 2wd AX-15. sold it to a member.
  18. yup. on the left:
  19. 2 things on the dual tank thought: exhaust? and 20 gal of gas is heavy.
  20. Bummer man. :( That's up there with my $5000 birdhouse. Thank goodness I still had decent health coverage back then. Although I always felt if it took 5 grand to put my hand back together (sneezed and ended up shaking hands with the table saw), the dang thing should be stronger than before, not weaker. I figured I should have gotten some sort of hidden knife, a super kung-foo grip, or maybe I could fire it off as a grappling hook. :dunno: Or maybe I've just watched too much James Bond. :yes:
  21. :dunno:
  22. he's been trying to sell that MJ for years now. :(
  23. You've got an engine from an 82-89 Camaro then. Not quite as good as the 3.1/3.4, but should be better than the 2.8L in your truck. :thumbsup:
  24. which Camaro engine did you find? The 3.1 and the 3.4 are an excellent upgrade for the old 2.8. :thumbsup:
