that's a tough call. re-gearing is so expensive that it's hard to justify doing it. but a deeper gear will certainly help the truck get back its power.

:rotf:

that's a poor place to put the weight anyway. it's better that it be directly over the rear tires. :thumbsup:

it is certainly possible for either the master or slave to fail internally where the fluid escapes past the plunger and won't build pressure. :thumbsup:

car-part.com can help with finding a replacement. Can't hurt anything to clean it our with a degreaser and refill with oil. I wouldn't use it very long, but it'll still work. (might be loud though)

I would start with the free stuff. clean the TB and IAC with a throttle body cleaner (meaning O2 sensor safe) and an old toothbrush. :thumbsup:

shouldn't a 92 throw the check engine light if the o2 sensor is failing? :dunno:

idle sensor?

yup. :thumbsup:

tried hitting the starter with a hammer? :wrench: if that doesn't work, I would take the starter to autozone to get checked out.

went to the junkyard and picked up a couple TPS's, an EGR and a MAF and it turned out the MAF was the problem. :wrench: (out of about 12 cars, only one still had a MAF in it)

club cards are totally and completely free. all I need is an address. :thumbsup:

do you not have club cards to leave?

Mine is in the cab normally (my back wall has a layer of 3/4" plywood so I can hang all sorts of things off it), but while on the trail I move it to a place where anyone could reach it. (the big steel extinguisher can also be used, but I carry it more for cleaning out my previous drum brakes or whatever needs a short power wash after mudding) a note: I've been told that long term storage on their side can be detrimental to their proper functioning.

I fixed mine with some ford axles and wider wheels/tires in the back. oh wait, that's probably not very pertinent to the conversation at hand. :rotf:

and for anyone reading this in the future, the bed is about 6" long in front of the wheelwell, and 6" longer behind the wheelwell. :thumbsup:

have you started an official project build thread on that baby yet? :brows:

if you push the gas pedal too fast, the engine gasps and tries to stall. if you push slowly, it works ok. does the same in gear as in neutral. idles fine. sounds fine. started doing this right outta the blue. thoughts? :dunno: edit: took it for a spin and now it'll be fine, then bad, then fine, then bad. I think a fuel filter change is in my near future. can't hurt, right?

if you're near Atlanta, I like S+W auto parts. they are in car-part.com and the prices for most things seem decent. www.sandwauto.com

un-weighted length means less than ya think because the spring rates can vary.

XJs and wranglers can use them because they have short wheelbases and more severe angles on the driveshafts. MJs have more wheelbase and less angle and so the t-case drop usually just results in a loss of ground clearance. :thumbsup:

doubling your income is generally a good thing :yes:

you wish! ha! :D but seriously, bigger tires will both make the truck feel sluggish and make the speedo read lower than you're actually going. :thumbsup:

for my 88 I used preformed lines from the auto parts store. wasn't a perfect fit, but it has worked great so far. :thumbsup:
