  1. Hmm, since you listen to me so well, go buy some steel and get to work!
  2. Alright. offroader461 is now the Mod for the classifieds. :bowdown: Everyone complain to him when the author of a post doesn't include the location (at least the state) in the title. :D
  3. I think that if people could simply put the location in their title, then all would be well. Tell ya what, I'll make that an official rule and actually enforce it. Who wants to volunteer to Mod the Classifieds? :brows:
  4. Well, I lost another QB to injuries (and my backup is on a BYE this upcoming week). Also lost 2 RBs and a WR (again). Anyone want Dante Stallworth? :shake:
  5. They'll learn their lesson when the 20-year-old-Jeep parts start backing up on the shelves. :yes:
  6. There's one on the cover of the 86 Brochure.
  7. Very nice! :thumbsup: I find it amazing how well a simple clear lens replacing a yellow lens really cleans up the look of cars/trucks. It simplifies the color scheme.
  8. I haven't seen any add-ons like that for phpbb yet. :dunno: But it is something you can turn off so you need not worry about that. :D
  9. As far as I know, any 2.5L short-block from an MJ/XJ/YJ/TJ will work just fine.
  10. Bad headlights in our rigs can be caused from corrosion in the sockets or in the wire harness itself. Simply adding a relay into the system can greatly improve our headlight's output. :thumbsup:
  11. I don't have a welder either so that's no excuse. Do you own an angle grinder? I sought out someone on a local 4x4 board who does 4x4 modding on the side. I bought the steel myself, cut it up with my $15 angle grinder, and brought it to him for welding. And my rockers are held together with the bed liner that covers them. They are mushy to the touch. I totally understand the apathy that comes with our rusted out trucks. I used to think that way too. And I even own that southern truck o' the future. But I do NOT regret the rocker guards. They are frickin' awesome! I can drop the truck on rocks and logs that would otherwise have made it tough to ever open my door again. Plus it will help hold my truck together longer since it adds structural support to all the rust. Do it! You won't regret it. :D
  12. Does it have to be new? I haven't taken an artsy photo in a while. Which is kinda depressing actually. :( A bee on a sunflower in New Mexico.

    New icons

    I was trying to stick with the old color scheme and yellow meant "new". I may tone down the shade a bit though. :roll:
  14. Hey, it won a few battles, but I won the war. :D
  15. I added an extra main leaf (with the eyes cut off) to my MJ packs and got a small bit of lift (about an inch) and didn't notice any change in ride quality.

    New icons

    Ok, so I'm playing around with the images in the subgreen forum style and made up a munch of little MJs to replace the generic icons. I started with the "topic" icons. If you haven't cought on yet: Gray = read topic Yellow = unread topic Red = "hot" topic (lots of replies) ones with the little rollbar and hood scoop mean that you've posted in that topic. and if you ever see an MJ icon with flat tires, that means that the topic has been locked. I'm sure there will be more to come. :D
  17. That's a bummer for sure. :( Although, with all this new-found time on your hands, I may have a project for you. :brows: PM sent...
  18. Well, try again! :D
  19. Still more progress than I've made on my newest MJ. :D The only thing that's changed is that the one front tire went flat. :shake:
  20. Runs and drives and isn't rotting apart? Sounds like a great deal to me. :D
  21. So the plug that says "don't remove" doesn't do anything in particular? A Jeep practical joke maybe? :clapping:
  22. Time for some rocker guards and bumpers. :brows:
  23. I just did something similar to mine. I made a small cut in the corners, and folded the metal over using channel locks and a hammer. Not the cleanest way, but as you can see, there's not much left of the original steel in that area so it doesn't really matter if I smash the paint.
  24. I had that happen to my Peugeot once. After a lot of frustration on the side of the road, I just kicked it real hard. It popped right out and never did it again. :dunno:
  25. Were those supposed to be 2 different pics?
