    COVID Chances

    Just an observation on mask wearing, Disney World has been open for months now. 100s of thousands of strangers all mingling all day long. It's a testiment to what the basic practices can do. If masking and cleaning and distancing didn't work, this would be an insane hotspot and it's just... not. Not even for the workers who are here every day. My folks feel safer there than walmart (which has essentially the same policies in place but doesn't really enforce anything past entering the front door. Disney will legit kick you off property if you don't comply.
  2. Snow tires will do well in the deep stuff too. :)

    Nothing against the thought behind it, but I... have the feeling that will not hold up in the courts. but we'll see. Maybe it's more for like when a repair guy comes by to fix the plumbing? but that's part of the beauty of living in this country. when a law gets handed down, it can then be challenged in the courts. other countries don't have that luxury.
  4. keep in mind that some of the codes were reused in Chyrysler's computers over the years for other cars and so may not be 100% accurate.
  5. dang, that's a "close but no cigar" moment. but that's what grinders are for I guess.
  6. can you share a photo of what you're dealing with? stock XJ and MJ shackles can physically be interchanged between the 2 rigs (MJ ones are a bit longer than XJ though).

    still applies. the droplets that spew out of someone's mouth are rather large (comparatively speaking) and so can still get trapped in regular masks. it's one of the reasons why they should be washed regularly (or disposed of) especially if you've been close around others. BUT, the 2 biggest preventives are still distance and everyone masking up. gotta catch the little buggers in the contagious person's mask.
  8. Have you not yet experienced a true snow tire? It's like having superpowers.
  9. how much snow do you get? generally speaking: snow tires > 4wd My old minivan dominated the white stuff.
  10. have your 35s let you down anywhere yet? seems premature to toss them before even finding their limits. beware of "inchitus". it can be quite expensive
  11. those temps... are weird.
  12. 3/16" 3x5 box tubing with a CJ bullbar on it and a 2x2 in it (meaning the hitch hole is on the backside). someday I'll trim the bottom of the outer ends for a bit more ground clearance, but I've changed my mind about angling them back after getting a bit too close to trees. I prefer that corner to stick out a bit because the trees get even closer if you are angled downhill even just a little bit.
  13. I sure hope they are giving you guys a heck of a discount on all this internet you aren't getting.
  14. factory axle ratio for 87+ is essentially drivetrain dependent. 4.0+stick = 3.07
  15. custom is more or less a fancy term for base, even though you could get a base that wasn't a "custom". 86 was a weird year. the other day I relearned that the 86 Cherokee was a little ahead in trim levels, namely the Pioneer.
  16. at 2k you get to be a Comanche Fanatic
  17. moved it over to Tech for ya.
  18. you used to. at 1000 posts you moved on to MJ junkie

    I hate theives

    chill guys you're not going to solve all the worlds problems today.
  20. if it won't close without use of the handle, then it sounds like you might need to grease up the outers a bit.
  21. It's possible that there might be a point where you run up against a wall (besides the turnover issues) in getting more added. I've noticed that some of the guys that regularly hit the junkyards may not be all that excited about giving away their favorite hunting grounds. it's not like a store. there's only so much good stuff to go around.
  22. sorry, I haven't gone so far as to branch out into hard parts. been screwed a couple times now with investing in a thing and then losing money.
  23. wow, those floors look decent!
