  1. what about just using one? that way you retain the storage space behind the drivers seat.
  2. have you checked inside the bulb sockets for corrosion?
  3. I almost lost my 4.0 to a fram filter (on the way to a weekend of wheeling no less). With no warning I noticed that I had 0 oil pressure about an hour into my drive. I was figuring that my pump was going (didn't know about frams yet) and my "fix" was to stop by a parts store and refill the truck with a heavier weight oil. that caused the pressure needle to at least move, though it never got above 10 psi when revving the engine. After babying it the entire weekend, I got home and asked around. A couple guys mentioned the filter and so I swapped it out. sure enough, the pressure came back immediately. Never used a fram since.
  4. It's not just the crappy seals. The pivot hole at the base likes to oval out. And even if the hole is good and the seal keeps out the rain, the thing can still whistle on the road. :fs1: I eventually had to seal up the drs side in my 88 with a bunch of silicone. :rant: So be very VERY picky about which ones you buy. don't just grab the first ones because you're excited to see them. starting with a decent condition pair is your best bet to avoid headaches later. and for what it's worth, I don't recommend them.
  5. yes :D viewtopic.php?f=3&t=23204
  6. how much support does that give to the MJ main leaf? My mains weren't getting enough support from the MJ second leaf and that was one of the big reasons I added another MJ main in as an AAL. I'm assuming the XJ second leaf would be even shorter.
  7. plus the ThunderChief still exists. :banana: rumor has it the Freedom got scrapped. :(
  8. all decals and stickers are available for donations. anything you'd like to send. :thumbsup: (try to send at least 2 bucks so it covers shipping) Send me a PM with what you want, name/address, and whether you'll be using paypal or snail mail.
  9. Oooo, the chase in "the french connection", where he's following the train. I love that one.
  10. Someday I really should pull them all out and arrange them for a decent photo. even if it's in the dang parking lot. and here's an older one, right after I bought my 3rd MJ (the only one I don't still have).
  11. It looks great, but it looks drawn. plus it'll have to be about 4-5 times as big to gain the necessary quality.
  12. the bumper stickers don't require the same level of resolution as decals. just a high quality jpeg. we might want to use a better condition emblem for that though. Something I know I don't have. :D
  13. That might make for a sweet bumper sticker. string it all together in the same line and make it look just like the MJ emblem emblem. :clapping: Maybe even an 86 version?
  14. whoops! :doh: you are correct. :thumbsup: not sure why I was thinking 289.
  15. :( to some people, pets are pets. to me, they are family. and it's always hard to lose family. :(
  16. Yup. nothing they did could get the 289 to keep up with that 440. big-blocks ftw! :D best lookin' mustang ever though. just needed some more horses.
  17. I wanna see it! all I get is an error message. :(
  18. Watching "Bullitt" just now and started thinking about other chase scenes in cinematography. What are your favorites? I've got a thing for the parking structure chase in "Tomorrow Never Dies". Bond cars are the best. Oh, and there's "Bullitt" of course, the grand pappy of the modern chase. :D :popcorn:
  19. Don't think of it as clutter. If you break it up into different topics, it makes it that much easier for future owners to find the answers in searches. :thumbsup:
  20. you might want to start new threads for new questions. It helps get answers since a lot of guys will just skim the titles and look for questions they can answer. :thumbsup:
  21. I don't know about that. mine tend to get better looking as darkness approaches. :yes:
  22. is it a stick? is he maybe confusing the reservoir of the clutch with the reservoir of the brakes?
