someone correct me if I'm wrong, but I don't think 95 has the good 8.25. I mean, they are all better thana dana 35, btu the early years were (I think) 27 spline.

https://pages.ebay.com/promo/2019/0312/5m50cswvgo1wgph2.html just saw this. ends 7pm pacific on the 12th.

don't forget the fill hoses and pump connections.

old Jeeps are just universally awesome

and if you're putting in an order, there are other 2500 parts that are desirable.

I'd wager if you can get a bunch shipped, you can find buyers reeeeal easy

after a pair of hideous spray-bomb paint jobs, I'd say you saved that MJ very nice work! I happen to know you can get replica Jurassic park mirror tags on ebay.

most any steering wheel from an 80s GM car can be used.

I believe that someone (GJeep?) was installing full glass into older doors using the Chinese 2500's regulators.

sadly, it's always worse on the inside. also, I've seen front fenders used as patch panels to good effect. also, rust free beds exist down south.

bet you didn't expect to see that today I sure didn't. https://www.facebook.com/CPGAbbeville/

like on Atlanta's freeways.

just keep in mind that there isn't a clutch safety in our trucks and if you jump the starter while still in gear it'll run you over.

you should put that question in the tech forum so more eyes will see it. (not everyone peruses the build threads)

are you talking about the engine shutoff thingie? I'm referring to the 4-cylinder operation on the freeway. sorry for the confusion. my folks have both in their '16 Durango and we've bypassed the shutdown feature for good. But 24mpg on the highway is kinda nice for a 360hp beast

location is everything. if you were deep in the rustbelt I'm sure the value would easily double. in the meantime, you should bring it over to Atlanta and I'll store it for you.

are they problem prone?

do the dodge trucks with the hemi have the cylinder shutdown? if so, when did that start?

I imagine that backing up would be... challenging?

if I understand it right, they use a system that lifts the boat up there on a lever bracket thingie. it's very scientific. or something.

what the hell? you broke the giant chunk of steel trying to press out the bearings? sounds like a time to bring in the pros.

the frames, the wiring, the everything was different enough that I just gave up swapping guts and went the the seats as-is. those 4 mounting points were the same generation to generation. just needed a bit of trimming on the one side and some safe guarding of the wires under the carpet.

did you try heating the knuckle in the oven first? maybe throwing the bearings in the freezer?

my '88 is insanely jealous of those numbers!
