    Can't you find someone around there with the same combination and ask them their opinion?Try a welding supply house. They should have some names, recommendations.
  2. When I was first interested in cars chopping and channeling was the hottie. I would like to chop and a channel a MJ and install a 400 Buick in it.

    Seems like to me , you answered your own question. Get it.
  4. Strikes me as a shameful abuse of a good machine and a waste of rubber, but then I'm not paying for either one. Different strokes for different folks. They were both very impressive, but I would have to pick the diesel.

    If your happy with the 125 amp MIG and it does what you want it to, then why do you need a 300 amp mig converter for? If you just want a new toy and you got the coins, then go for it. Otherwise, why bother?
  6. Use two gaskets. Grind valleys in the valve cover. Grind off the part of the rocker arm that's hitting. :wrench:

    D44 worth

    Got a D44 I pulled out of a '87 MJ, missing the pinion. So I guess it's not a complete loss. Make something out of them.

    Well, that certainly makes me feel better. :(
  11. Just called him. He's going out first thing in the morn. We'll' see.
  12. I got a brother in Aurora. Think I'll give him a call.

    D44 worth

    Well,, I got the dern things. If I had known it was going to be a 140 mile round trip wouldn't have bothered. It's just the ring gear and pinion and bearings from a 2009 Rubicon. 30k. Couldn't really see any wear on them. Fella upgraded and had no use for them. :thwak:

    Apparently I'm in a good area for buying. Just a PP one for selling. Anyway talked to the guy. Going after them later this afternoon.

    D44 worth

    Sorry. I have never had a puny D35 break on me so I've never had to replace one. I do know D44 are the rave, in thing and I've bought several, the complete assembly for less than a $100 when I had the chance, but they're just sitting in the yard, unused. I have seen them advertised for anywhere between $75 to $650 but I've never seen any actually sold or bought. I know they are a desirable axle. I just don't know there worth, true worth. Jim

    Got a chance to get a front and rear 4:10 with 30k on them for $50. Just wondering what they're worth. :dunno:
  17. Prediction. I predict there will be so many people show that all that happens is one big a**ed party with no work being accomplished, or nobody shows.
  18. at first i thought you were kidding about taking a jeep out for a "test drive" now I'm not so sure lol Why would I kid about something like that? Pueblo Dodge, Salesman John Villafon, 719-545-6587, 800-571-6587 And my MJ in the lot had as many lookers around it as their floor models did.
  19. Trying to save the video to my hard drive with no luck. Any body got any clues, tips or hints on how to? :dunno:
  20. Don't know what the axle ratio or tranny was on this one. It was 6 speed. I know it was kinda boggy from a dead start. I just put it down to being new, not broke in yet. Ran real good at 90 on the highway, but was only highway for 20 miles. Rest was prairie, gully hopping.
  21. AWWWWW! Seriously I have thought about it. Got an open field by the house? Stearman needs 600 ft.
  22. Not having anything to do and just curious I stopped by the Jeep dealer this morning. Put 100 miles on a shiny red Wrangler Rubicon. Had 6 miles on the clock when I started it. Had a 109 on it when I shut it off 3 hours later. Plus it was dirtier than hell. Not sure how bad I scratched up the under carriage. Salesman wanted $35,999. I offered $30 thou cash. After dickering for 30 minutes and not getting any place I left. Problem is, I liked it. Problem is, I don't need another JEEP, or any other vehicle. Somebody stop me, please. :no:
  23. Now that sounds like a winner. :wrench:
  24. Newscasters aren't concerned with the facts. Only about how pretty they look.
