  1. did you follow the link?
  2. Libbys are everywhere in the pull a parts. it's like $125 for an axle. 3.55 and 3.73 are the most common ratios. posis are hit or miss.
  3. ford was kind enough to include the gear ratio and pois-or-not on a sticker on the door of the explorer. google for the codes. personally I like the KJ Liberty 8.25. it's 2" wider than stock to better match the MJ's wide butt and has disks ('cept for '02).
  4. you'll want to source a 4wd transmission too. and for a question like that, please include your truck's stats, as what you have can change the answer. in fact, you could put them in your sig:
  5. oooooorrrrrrr, you could upgrade to an 8.8 or 8.25 and go have fun preferably something with a posi
  6. that's a new one by me
  7. how much more of an excuse do you need to go to a junkyard than a CC friend is in need of a part that juuuust might still be there! Heck, I'm hitting up the pullapart tomorrow in hopes that the other skidplates might still be there. plus for twenty some bucks, I'm getting a new hitch that isn't encrusted in the red stuff. in other news, today I came across an old pic of the Libby. she was so young that the spare tire cover was still on! dollars to donuts that there are a few 8.8s in that trailer.

    New toy, FLIR:

    nice I bet that will do wonders for showing the gaps in house insulation and hot spots in the jeep. how much was it?
  9. Congrats!! but also, if they have a way to know who earned, but didn't receive, why haven't they sought out the recipients and made things right?
  10. whoa that's tight! congrats on the milestone!
  11. so I was perusing good ol' google maps exploring alternatives to a local intersection that's about to undergo major reconstruction and one of my routes brought up this li'l beauty. inside of a 3 mile stretch, this road has 4 different names. (I couldn't get the map zoom to include the 4th name and still show the whole thing, but believe me, the last bit on the right is a new name). this is an extreme example of what's common in georgia. way different than what I'm used to in Michigan. man, getting around on southern roads with a map must have been... challenging.
  12. the VIN will be on the dash or on a tag in the engine bay.
  13. did you run a VIN check? I would not put it outside the realm of possibilities (dealerships did all sorts of things to get sales), but it was never officially offered in that configuration.
  14. how does the height of the seat in that configuration compare to the originals?
  15. interesting... verified with a vin check?
  16. after 10 posts the classifieds will open up to you.
  17. needs a bit of TLC but it should make a great little truck be sure to start a build thread
  18. yup. If I have to. trying to keep the budget in check.
  19. can't say I've seen pics like that in a build thread before nice!
  20. and the ones I've found so far were 2wd.
  21. some things never change. apparently this isn't the only complain letter against Ea-nasir found. original page: https://web.archive.org/web/20150310133210/http://anthropology.msu.edu/anp363-ss15/2015/03/05/customer-service-in-ancient-mesopotamia/
