  1. cheap is never the best.
  2. what about plugging yourself into the outlet? http://www.heatedclothingoutlet.com/jacketLiner.shtml
  3. I don't understand this either. :dunno: While many Democrats may be hypocrites, they are not hypocrites just by being a member of the party. For me the biggest appeal of Democrats over Republicans is that you are not ostracized for having your own opinion or by being who you are. Willy Do you really think all Dems are pro-choice or pro-big government or anti-gun? Do you really think there aren't any homosexual or minority republicans? The overall problem is that politicians feel the need to narrow their talking points to a handful of extreme ideas (this is the TV age after all) and there's simply no way that their entire base can possibly agree with all of those ideals all the time. There's always bound to be internal conflicts on either side. I have various viewpoints that align with either side and I can tell ya that disagreeing with a Democrat is just a bad as disagreeing with a Republican.
  4. I assume they rationalize it the same way die-hard Liberals rationalize the hypocrisies in their own party. Remember, they are politicians. And politicians will do what it takes to get and stay in power. Occasionally they may even believe in the words coming out of their own mouths, but I'd never bet money on it. I do not affiliate myself with either party because I hate politicians (with very few exceptions).
  5. The AX-15 (on the left) has a front half and a back half, joined in the middle by a huge ring of steel. The Peugeot (on the right) has a left half and a right half, joined by a line of bolts running along the top and the bottom.
  6. yeah yeah, I know. :D I was just throwing out some generalities. Just wanted him to know that he doesn't need an exact match to compare most features.
  7. what are the specific circumstances when you hear this rattle? idling? under throttle? are you in the truck or under the truck?
  8. not likely. :D but we'll see. :cheers:
  9. Robert, all longbed MJs look the same, all 87-90 4.0 engine bays look the same, and all the stock 4wd MJs look the same. skim through the projects forum and I'm sure you'll find a whole bunch that you can steal ideas from :thumbsup:
  10. It's like having 2. :D I don't think he's asking someone to make a road trip.
  11. spring wrap can be a big issue with SOA.
  12. which is what much of comedy seems to rely on, generalities and stereotypes. Try not to read too much into it. :thumbsup:
  13. tried car-part.com yet?
  14. You've got an MJ axle under the MJ right now, yes?
  15. I think it's 42" center to center.
  16. No cost to buy does not necessarily mean no cost to get running.
  17. doesn't matter if it's SOA. the XJ perches are in the wrong spot for an MJ. I'd be very leery about purchasing it.
  18. I wouldn't bet much money on that. I'm guessing 3.31 or 3.73 (looked it up on car-part.com)
  19. dunno for sure. The rules-of-thumb weren't as reliable for the early years.
  20. 84-85 2.5Ls had the carb
  21. only to get the bigger U-joints that come with the later year axleshafts. The shaft itself won't really be that much stronger than just sliding the locking collar over permanently.
  22. SOA is only cheap in the rear. Balancing that out with 6" up front is expensive. Is there something wrong with a good 3" lift and 31" tires? You know for sure the gears are 3.55, yes?
  23. tru dat. It goes double for one that has prior failures.
  24. how much lift? how big of tires? what engine/trans do you have? I'm sure there are plenty of guys that would trade their bench for your buckets. :D where are you? Make sure you get a bench that has headrests. The early years did not have them.
