  1. rent trailer, get the 87, then pile everything you can into it. how rusty are the trucks?
  2. moved to Tech for the obvious tech-y reasons.
  3. oooooooooo...
  4. the more you spend on shocks, the better they will be. that's another thing that kits tend to skimp on to cut costs.
  5. could be a fuel injector stuck open.
  6. nice! to the car shows we go!
  7. kits don't usually include the drop pitman because it's unnecessary up to 6". and if you do do it, it needs to be done alongside a matching drop trackbar bracket or else bumpsteer comes into play.
  8. don't fear the high octane. it really isn't that much more money when you take into account the number of miles you'll be putting on it.
  9. it appears they'll have even blacker as an option.
  10. armor is more important than lift so make sure that's in the budget too. my observations with lift "kits" is that they are rarely complete, or they skip corners and throw in the cheaper items.
  11. the Premier Power Welder has been around for years.
  12. https://www.oraclelights.com/blogs/news/mj looks like a $255-272 price range.

    HellFire 6x6

    for maximum "look at me!!" someone correct me if I'm wrong, but I'm inclined to guess that none of those physical changes actually increased the official tow rating by even 1 pound because the VIN number never changed.
  14. even a race car that's worried about every single pound has a heavy rollbar inside. it's all about removing weight from the places you can. or not. I just added more and more to my truck. the most thought I gave to weight-savings was I used 3/16" tube for the bumpers rather than 1/4".

    Streaming tv

    you can start streaming before you cut the cord. that way you know exactly what you're in for, but still have your regular stuff available.
  16. more power + more gearing = more better wheeling is just one slippery slope after another.
  17. the zone code might be a reused code.
  18. sold by a Uhaul Storage? interesting!
  19. they were stock export models. every 94-96 era right hand drive mail XJ I've seen was roughly the same. note the European yellow markers above the front fenders.
  20. sweet! yeah, bondo and rust aren't all that great at being structural. I had to do the same for my MJ and avoid any touching of the rockers.
  21. you're never going to get an accurate number from a dealership. just gotta compare against other trucks for sale.
  22. when that happened to me it was because the water pump bearings had eaten themselves and that pulley was wobbly.
