    indeed. more eyeballs will see it. I've never paid for that. and I would get a Libby 8.25 myself
  2. nope. in a highspeed sustained linear flow (i.e. the freeway) the turbulence circulates into a sideways barrel shape that actually deflects the air coming over the cab. if the gate is removed, the barrel can't form. check out the Mythbusters work on it.
  3. your mpg goes down without a gate on the freeway. around town it's more or less the same.
  4. I wasn't the guy that contacted him, it was the other Peter (LSR3). I just tagged along for the ride. but I thought Rob had a contact that gave him the plethora of images of the TC.
  5. just learned today that spotify no longer carries Monster Guitars. hopefully this is temporary.
  6. check the members map pinned in the pub. I'd wager you've got at least 4
  7. to help keep thieves from running away with your tailgate.
  8. Jeep has to have some sort of historical arm, yes? maybe?
  9. there are a few different numbers floating around the interwebs that don't agree with each other on the overall total.
  10. if I have to replace these again, I'm buying that tube of windshield adhesive and squeezing it up in there to create a solid bushing. I nearly had to create my own for that diff support in the KJ but fortunately one of my used spares was juuuuuust good enough.
  11. I'd had to replace all those little rubber bits in the PT. less than 100k miles and none of the rubbers lasted. hurray for cheap american cars! although technically I didn't replace them all... there's a mid-engine one that is a super pain to get out and thus it remains.
  12. take a deep breath... and resist all urges to set it ablaze
  13. makin' good progress would you like me to move this over to the Projects section?
  14. that truck is half super cool and half death trap. I love it!
  15. um, I'm familiar with the phrase "some things never change" but... score none the less!
  16. some guys are just not interested in the future value.
  17. model year vehicles are generally made starting halfway into the previous year. for MJ/XJs I think it was July? so in July 1994 they started selling 1995 XJs.
  18. no known breakdowns exist of the various trim levels. that info was lost years ago (in a basement flood we hear) before it could be entered into Chrysler's computers. but being the highest trim, I'd imagine there weren't far fewer made than the sporTrucks.
  19. yup, that's going to be a sweet addition.
  20. kids were ALWAYS that dumb. it's part of growing up as you gain experience in dealing with peer pressure. it's just that the double-dog-dares are more widespread now due to the internet. previously it would have been just a kid or 2 in that town that were dumb enough to lick the frozen flag pole.
  21. it cuts both ways. how many people have ruined their lives via the camera in their pocket?
  22. more eyeballs check the Tech section so I moved it over for you
  23. can you share a pic of what you have? car-part.com has a feature that lets you search for wheels by photos. after 9 more posts the CC classifieds will open up to you
