I speak of a tire alignment. As you raise up the truck, the steering linkages pull the tires together and they will need to be lengthened to get your tire alignment back to speck. Is your steering wheel straight with the tires pointed straight?

Did you align the steering after lifting?

tried ebay? Keep in mind that long and short bed MJs use different tanks too. Get the 23.5 gallon for a longbed (a 13 was also avaiable but who wants 13 gals?), and an 18 gal for the short.

Keeping the tires on the smallish side will help keep the engine in its power band (meaning that if you added bigger tires, the engine will seem more sluggish). On a 92 2.5, you might want to look into a 4.0L throttle body swap. I think your engine is new enough to be able to do that. Maybe bigger fuel injectors would help. Also, make sure there's nothing wrong with your truck, like a bad air or fuel filter, or a clogged cat.

Not without a lot of custom fabrication. They are different shapes.

A little. :D But it was easy to pry it back with the hi-lift handle. It's a ford front axle and the factory tie-rod is solid and I'm far less worried about weakening it as I would be with an MJ unit..

Electric cooling fan swap What size tires are you running?

There are three basic ways to corrent the control arm gemoetry in our trucks using aftermarket parts: long arms, short arms, and drop brackets (which generally are designed to re-use stock length arms). 6" is about the limit for short arms. Drop brackets are not "necessary" to get 6" of lift, but they will improve the ride due to the better geometry of the arms. But then there's the argument of the brackets hanging up on obstacles. Some hate DBs and some like them, but short arms for sure won't hang down like the drop brackets. Every kit design has pluses and minuses.

Well, these are the ones I have photos of... Stuck on a log in Rockport offroad park: Stuck in the mud at a local club's gathering trying to follow much bigger tires: And again: And again: Learning the lesson about lowering your tire pressure enough on the dunes:

That's one heck of a serve. :eek:

Some members have ordered special colors and since the same price gets me 1 or a few, I have some extras. These are not a usual offerings so you won't see them in the main swag thread... unless of course enough of you want them, in which case I'll just order more and add them to the CC swag post. Whatever you want. It's all good to me. :thumbsup: Since the guys that ordered them covered the minimum order cost, all here are available purely for donations. CC logo decals in Forest Green and a medium blue: 12" CC address decal but in a thinner font, more akin to the windshield logo font (seen here on my tool box). The usual 12" CC address decal, but in metallic silver:

Got a link to it?

If there's enough interest, I'll gladly split it up by province or general area. :thumbsup: Just as with the other mini meet/greet forums, feel free to post in and pay attention to any and all that you feel are close enough to participate in any activities.

I'll start one up that's simply "Canada" and we'll see where it goes from there. :thumbsup:

:rotf:

Pretty sure that's why it went poof.

Was that the one that started out with a ghey joke?

You need a better pick-n-pull. :eek: If you can get to them first, my favorite yard sells 'em $75-100

Good point. there are three ways to lower prices, government money (our money), manufacture money, and dealership money. In my tired brain I was lumping them all together. Mostly I was thinking about the one CC member who got a "trade in" on his Comanche a while back. If the dealership is willing to blindly give you a few grand for a 20 year old truck, then they are willing to knock thousands off the price for nothing at all beyond good negotiating skills.

If it's in good shape (including all of the brake parts) then it's a decent price. But different areas have different going rates. Have you looked at car-part.com yet?

Have you tried the baby powder trick yet?

Upgrade your harness to incorporate some relays to power them and your headlights will be bright again. The factory harness sucks. :fs1: Even worse after 20 years.

Don't think of it as 10k towards a new vehicle. If a dealership is willing to knock down their price for any reason, then they can knock down that price without any reason at all. trade-ins and matched discounts are just scams to make it sound like they're doing something special.

Woudn't work. You have to be the owner and have it registered for the last like year.

There's also this one done by one of our members (who's screen name unfortunately escapes me).
