wouldn't it be easier to just have a decibel limit? :dunno:

why?

I'd certainly consider a sticky if the maker swings by with a list of MJ stuff he has (and hopefully some photos. :D )

1. lock CAD 2. rip out all the vacuum lines 3. cap originating vacuum hole done and done. :D

I love the "magnifying glass" setting on my canon cybershot. :D and I dream of the day i can get a digi slr. :( had to sell off my film canon elan7e a while back. The little camera takes decent images though (as long as it isn't dark and you don't want a forced long exposure :fs1: ) and one more of my truck, just cause I like the colors. :D

My 86, doing its thang. (its current thang being a "mobile storage locker")

apparently not. :dunno: don't worry, there are guys on here with much nicer white MJs. one'll pop up eventually. :D

Probably not much usable on that Dak for an MJ, but if you should be able to flip it (fixed or not) for a small profit if you know where to advertise.

What's wrong with the truck to make it only 100 bucks?

There's no reason why he can't post a thread in the classifieds like everyone else. :thumbsup:

what's wrong with the engine on the parts truck? Blown up? or just not running?

95-01 Explorers are disk braked, 94 and earlier are drums. other than that they are essentially the same axle. :thumbsup: careful though, 3.73 geared 8.8s are common, but HP 3.73 geared Dana 30 front axle are not.

Only the Explorer closely matches the Comanche. Rangers are too narrow, F-150s are too wide.

What vehicle did the 8.8 come from?

Like that they were the only small truck in history to have a fuel injected 6 cylinder engine and a solid front axle? That they had more available weight carrying capability than most modern half-ton fullsize trucks? That an MJ once set the land speed record for its class? that they dominated the SCCA truck races? :dunno:

when it comes to MJs, I'm not sure what constitutes a "reliable source" in regards to a speech class. Even the dealership brochures have errors. :dunno: What is the theme of the speech? history of the truck?

whoa... :ack: the Dana 30 looks tiny. :eek:

I cut mine flush with the bushings.

It does oxidize though. :yes:

The flipping issue was a problem with the mutts.

There's 2 separate stories mixed in there. The IFS/IRS vehicle you're referring to was the MUTT. It came out in 1959. Ford was indeed making Jeeps during WWII, but they were pretty much the same thing as Willys was making, just with a ford logo here and there. :D http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/M151_MUTT WWII Jeeps made by Ford: http://www.jeepfamily.com/Year_Guide/19 ... rd_GPW.htm

we can only wish our trucks were made from aluminum. :(
