  1. magnets might be here by friday. :D otherwise monday.
  2. I don't think those are for MJs. pretty sure he's selling CJ axles. :thumbsup:
  3. there's no need to shoot for early AX-15s. the later years will simply need a different pilot bearing/bushing. :thumbsup:
  4. the flowmaster would be cool, but I'm not sure I'd want the gasses dumping so close to my cab. Unless your cat is clogged, you likely won't see any significant improvement in anything but the sweet, sweet music to your ears. :D
  5. sorta common. but I'd look into the valve cover first. leaks at the back can dribble just as much oil as a RMS and are infinitely easier to cure. Try wiping a paper towel back there to see is the oily residue is fresh or old.
  6. if you pull the pump, take note of the condition of the little rubber hoses. if they are degraded enough, it'll leak and lose pressure.
  7. this is the best I've got unfortunately. :dunno:
  8. just about. there might have been even fewer dually MJs made (another post-factory mod). and there's only one ThunderChief. :D
  9. since you're still designing it, I figured I'd move it to the tech forum for the time being. :thumbsup:
  10. be careful about scooping up road dust. otherwise your filter will clog up faster.
  11. oh, I don't have any of those. :( I found the images online.
  12. So I've decided to put forth effort to gather up an example of every MJ ad ever published and keep them together for posterity's sake (and scan them to put on our site of course :D ), which inevitably led to ebay, and shock that guys are asking 5 bucks plus for them. :eek: (they aren't selling, so don't go thinking you've hit some sort of goldmine) Seems thousands of ads from old mags are finding their way to ebay, so it's not like it's an MJ-thing. and thus I'm going a different route and asking you guys to look around the house for magazines from 85-92 (seems most ads were from the early years). Doesn't have to be a 4x4 mag, or even a car-related mag. If you've got some, leaf through 'em to see if there's anything about MJs. :thumbsup: If you find one, let me know and I'll PM you my address. articles about MJs are even better. :banana: some examples I've seen online:
  13. craigslist.org with some patience, you should be able to find a decent set of 33s/35s for under 700. possibly with rims attached. :D
  14. I went and set the dvr to record it. :D
  15. a rebuilt 2.8 will probably still have the issues inherent with the 2.8L. the 3.4/3.1 is a superior engine internally.
  16. car-part.com may be of help in finding engines. :thumbsup:
  17. the bolt on kits are axle-specific, meaning they will not work on a future 8.8. the bolt-on perch uses the stock MJ perches for strength and location, perches that will not be on the 8.8 welding perches to an axle is about as easy as welding gets. :thumbsup: Mopar perches are only $18/pair at the dealership.
  18. is the old gas still in the tank?
  19. or you can hitchhike in for free. :D not having a car sucks though. :( the pit area is miles from the start area, which is miles from the camping area. though if you stick that thumb out, it only takes a couple minutes before someone will help you out with a ride. :cheers: plan on it being insanely sunny and warm. the sunshine hits you from above and from below. In fact, most of the light comes from the reflection off the salt. if it turns out to be cloudy, that's a bonus. :D bring LOTS of water and sunscreen.

    Tow rig?

    seats 6, hauls whatever, looks awesome... :brows: plus you can wash the truck off after wheeling. your truck and everyone else's. http://rockford.craigslist.org/bfs/1696660849.html
  21. check for power at the tank directly after someone turns the key to start. the pump should get power for like a second.
  22. last week to order anything.
  23. maybe the shimming failed?
