    copy/paste that into this thread so he'll see it:

    a-yup. just give them all the monies.
  3. Pete M
    that's a thing of beauty! you should be able to click "edit" in your original expeditionportal thread, copy all the text and then paste it here.

    holy crap!

    that was probably for the best. I've watched a couple shows (on mute, while doing other things) and some of the trucks incur some serious damage.

    go drive a Kia if you don't want gawkers and groupies. they are inevitable and drawn to the awesomeness that in the Comanche.

    Alex says he poked around, updated some things, tweaked some settings and the software should all play together nicer now. any improvement?

    when asking about a cherokee, it's important to mention it or at least put it in your sig. MJs and XJs share a lot of the stuff up front, but the rear is different. offhand I'm not sure where a cherokee pump grounds.

    I'm not saying it can't be done, but it won't be easy. nothing is shared body-wise between wranglers and MJs so all the components will need custom brackets, other parts won't fit or may not reach where they need to. It'll be a challenge for sure. maybe even fun if you're up to the task. take lots of pictures as you go!

    and if you're nervous about flaring them, I've redone 2 trucks so far, one where I flared my own, and another where I used the pre-made straight lines from the auto part store. Just be sure to use the proper bending tool so they don't kink. while you're replacing lines, it's also a good time to remove the rear prop valve and upgrade to the dual booster from a late model Jeep. Just do it all at once.

    Liberty 8.25! disk brakes and a couple inches wider.

    best part of running new lines (aside from the fact they won't be all brittle like the old) is that you don't have to follow the factory curves. just make sure nothing will get snagged or crushed.

    in the event of a rollover the bar will be pushing into the fender rather than pulling the rivets out.

    Westin's bumper probably fits both, but there will be an adapter bracket to make it work. if you can fab an adapter, you can make most any bumper work.

    wait, why does the NOS cluster have 0.3 miles on it? seems more likely it was removed early on in favor of the better cluster. a minor technicality, I know, but still.
  16. Pete M
    of course it does. still might look pretty sweet as wall decoration.
  17. Pete M
    nice!

    2.5 to 4.0 swap

    Pete M replied to cruiser54's topic in The Pub

    wait, members can't adjust their own thread titles? one more thing for the to-do list...

    If it's a stock 302 the AX-15 will be fine. just don't slam the gears. advance adapters or novak should have an adapter bellhousing. oh, and 300 bucks is an ok price for a trans and t-case.
  20. Pete M
    you may need to call rustys about this one. is there a difference in XJ versus MJ in this kit and they sent the wrong part?
  21. Pete M
    so... everything lines up right, the install pdf does indeed say 35.5", but it's clearly jacked up somehow... hold on, I think we have an emoji for that. yup, here it is:

    so the LCA mount keys in to the trans crossmember some how? that big side plate doesn't look like it can go back any further.
  23. Pete M
    how well does it idle/rev/idle while just sitting in the driveway?
  24. Pete M
    pictures of what you're seeing? I don't understand how the trans mount location would affect the control arms or front axle.

    It's tough being a Jeeper in the north.
