  1. I'd use lock-tite.
  2. Are the nuts grade 8 too?
  3. still waiting... any day now... :roll:
  4. Rumor has it these guys might have some. Anyone want to call and confirm? http://willysoverland.com
  5. I bought a rubber O-ring/washer thingie from the auto parts store. Cheap an effective and can't get damaged by road debris. I've used the item you're looking at before to seal up holes in parts testing at a previous job. I wouldn't trust them to stay put in my oil pan.
  6. Nah, it's been doing this for a day now. I'm starting to get tired of typing in html. :(
  7. I'd need a lot more photos before I agreed it was a "perfect restoration piece". :D Could have potential though.
  8. Eh, the 4.10s have worked fine so far. What I really want is to swap in the new (to me) engine. :brows: That'll perk it up way more than an extra 0.78 in axle ratio. :D
  9. I was screwing around with some settings in the 'puter and updating my Java and such and now I can't click on buttons on certain websites (like the tag or the smilies). It's only on some sites though, like JF and greatlakes4x4. I can still do everything here at comancheclub and my hotmail page. I've tried to retrace my steps and undo whatever I've done, but I'm stumped. :cry: Oh, and yes I'm running firefox.
  10. Let me know what you want. :thumbsup: I'll have ~70 extra, so as long as you need fewer than that, it's all good.
  11. Looks like collapsible won 12-9. The order has been placed. These are a bit more money than the first ones I tried to order, but the benefit is that they have a smaller minimum count. I guess I didn't really need 250 of the things lying around anyways. :roll: The new minimum is only 150. I'll still have about 70 left over, but that's not so bad. To those who preferred the other one, I've found a good trick is to simply cut the bottom off so the can sits flat on its base. Most of the surface area is on the sides anyway. Or as a friend once said, "if your beer is getting warm on you, you aren't drinking it fast enough". :D
  12. A wiring swap is necessary. They don't share computers.

    Hats

    I'll do my best. :D But my larger dog is half lab and I can't ever promise that there won't be a stray hair or two from him. He sheds sooooooo much. :( 20 years from now I'll still be finding random hairs on my clothing. :roll:
  14. Great, so I need to call the guy and get this order going like today and we have a dead heat. :roll: Well, I gotta run over to the Secretary of State to get tabs for the minivan, if it's still tied when I get back (likely a couple hours from now :( ), I guess I'll flip a quarter.
  15. Bought by the previous owners of Paragon offroad park. :D http://blogs.fourwheeler.com/6233541/fe ... index.html http://www.paragonap.com/forum/showthread.php?t=14988
  16. Try to make sure the swing arm up is tied up securely and remains about parallel with the ground. Otherwise you could lose your rear brakes.
  17. It's not like the top one won't squish pretty flat. :roll: It's just neoprene after all.
  18. I'm certain someone would buy that cab. :D Heck, if you were closer to me...
  19. Ouch. :eek: Now I feel even better about my find. :D It's exactly what I needed. I've got disks already set up, and a locked 4.10 center section that I can use right now to replace the broken one in the truck. Now I'm free to choose either putting off swapping in my 4.88 geared axles in the garage or just settle on 4.10s and sell off the 4.88s. Decisions, decisions... :roll:
  20. To make the pics visible, all you need to do is highlight the address and click on the IMG button. :D
  21. Voting is over. Can cooler, cozy, coozy, coolie, insulator, whatever the heck it's called. I found out today that the first company has canceled the Forest green color for the can thingies. The remaining colors suck. So we've found another company that offers a dark green and they have 2 different styles. Assuming the price is the same, which is preferred? #1: (notice the solid and flat bottom) #2: (notice the holes in the bottom that allow the cover to collapse flatter than the first choice)
  22. A vibrating armrest. :D
  23. For 2" of lift the shackle would need to be 4" longer than stock. That's a long shackle. I recommend adding an AAL in the form of another MJ main leaf located right below the current one. Gives an inch or so and helps combat spring-wrap.
  24. The seats are held in with just a few 13mm nuts. It's the center console and screwing around with the seatbelts that take the most time. :(
