Cory, If you haven't found them screws yet send me yer addy. They'll be in the mail Mon Morn.

It's a Jeep. Just put it in reverse and back it out. May have to put a HiLift jack under the front bumper to help get it started. :rotfl2:

Got a fella coming out this AM to take a look at it. He's got a wrecked '96 XJ. 4.0, 5sp, 4wd. We're talking even swap. If he don't take it, it's yours.

Yep. The Malibu. Wish it looked that good now. Probably some hard applied elbow grease and it would. It was parked since 1989-90 under a leaf-sap dripping tree without a cover. I thought about just running it out to the dump but took it home and cleaned the crap out of it instead. At least the aluminum isn't corroded. although all the wood flooring, seating and cloth was totally rotted out. So I reckon I'll fix it, sell it. Do something with it. It belonged to my life long buddy. He died last year and the widow gave me the boat a couple weeks ago for helping her clean up. (Translation) She couldn't find anybody that wanted it and hoped I would be to polite to say no.

Ahh, the ole Colorado Custom Cab & Hood Hail job. I've used heat, hammer an dolly and Bondo. If the dents aren't to deep the heat trick works best. Otherwise just Bondo it.

The right side lower rear control arm bushing was the culprit on my "87.

Searched it from end to end, Bow to stern? and nothing useful. The chrome plastic "Lone Star" and the Max loading tag was all i could find. The trailer has no VIN or manufacture tag on it either. Just a decal identifying it as Sears. I believe the boat and motor is from the fifties. The trailer a little later. Image Not Found Image Not Found Image Not Found Image Not Found

I sort of 'inheireted a 14 ft boat and trailer the other day. I've played around with sail boats but know absolutely nil about motorboats. Is a Johnson RJE 35HP motor a 2 cycle or a 4 cycle? Do I have to mix oil with the gas? Anybody want to buy a boat, aluminum, motor an trailer? How is 'inheireted' spelled? :dunno:

Sometimes mileage isn't everything. I got a '68 Cadillac Deville convertible I drive regular. Gets 12 mpg. Only got 8mpg before I rebuilt the engine and tranny. More than once i've thought about getting rid of the gas hog, but when I'm cruising with the top down and getting a face full of air, it's worth it. My 2 cents worth. Had to use the red MJ. There's no Yellow Caddies in the smilies.

T shirt only. Long sleeve and hoodie not my thing.

The equipment didn't bother me. What bothered me was the Flight Engineer (Crew Chief) sitting 2 feet away trying to appear uninterested.

What year(s)?

Almost has to be heat related. Take a hair dryer, or any heat producing source, NO OPEN FLAME, and concentrate it on all ignition related parts, ECU, Ign Coil, etc. Or just start swapping parts. Darn intermittent has to be the most difficult problem to solve. Good Luck.

I love this story. A man and his dog are walking down a strange, unfamiliar road. He doesn't recognize anything and wonders what is going on. Finally he comes upon a big gate with a man sitting beside it and a fountain of sparkling clear water inside the gate. He approaches the man and asks him "where am I"? "You're dead" the man replies, "and this is heaven." "I'm very thirsty and tired. May I come in and take a drink of water?" "Certainly, replies the man, and welcome." "May I bring my dog also?" "sorry. We don't allow dogs. He'll have to stay outside." He thinks a bit, looks at his dog and says, "thank you but I guess I'll pass." He continues walking and soon he sees another large golden gate by the roadside. Upon approaching it he see's another man sitting by the gate and a fountain of water in the back ground. Approaching the man he asks him, "what is this place?" " The man replies this is Heaven" The man asks "I'm very thirsty. May I come in and take a drink?" "Certainly, and welcome." "How about my dog? He's also very thirsty." "Your dog is very welcome. Please bring him in with you." The man and dog enters and takes a long drink. Going back to the man at the gate he asks him. "did you know that here is another place down the road and they claim to be heaven also?" "Yes, I know. That's really Hell." "Doesn't it bother you that he's claiming to be Heaven?" "No. Not at all. It helps us filter out those that don't belong in here." :thumbsup: How come there's no pup in the smilies?

I strongly recommend you do. Ex's seem to have a way of coming back and biting you in the as,,,,,er,,,haunting you.

Groan,,,,Why isn't there an ear or can of corn in the smilies? :rotf:

NO, But did you ever try to pee in the little tube in the back of a C47 while wearing a parachute and 75 pounds of equipment?

A drunk staggers into a saloon and totters up to the bar, slamming his fist down on the bar he hollers in a loud voice, "Drinks for everybody, and you to bartender. Pour one for yourself. Bartender says "well thank you sir" and pours everybody a drink and takes one his self. They all toast the drunk and down their drinks. Bar tender walks up to drunk and says, "That'll be 197 dollars my friend." Drunk replies, "Don't look at me. I ain't got no money. Bartender beats the crap out of the guy and throws his azz out into the street. Drunk picks his self up and staggers back into the bar. "Bartender. Drinks for everybody. but nothing for you. You get mean when you drink."

I wrapped all my D35 axles with a couple wraps of duct tape. Ain't broke one yet.

A Navy chief petty officer and a airman third class are using the bus station urinals. The young AM finishes first and heads for the door. The Chief hollers at him "In the navy they teach us to wash our hands after using the John" The kid replies " In the air force they teach us not to pee on our fingers." :rotf:

My kind of man. :cheers: Salute

It does not. Home grown. :yes:

and don't make any long term plans. Scientists predict that Our galaxy, the Milky Way and the galaxy Andromeda are going to collide in about 5 billion years. I leave it to your imagination what the results of that will be. :ack:

WOW!! Anybody that saves a MJ from the scrap is my kind a guy. Congrats on the honor. :bowdown: :cheers: :bowdown:

With a transfer case that has a 2w-4w-N, 231 , 203 for example you can put it in nuetral and be OK for towing. The drive shafts are separated from each other. With a AWD the 2 axles are always locked together which means if one axle is turning then the other axle is also turning.
