    Welcome to the club ! Hell yeah , seek and destroy ! :wrench:
  3. :huh???: That's not rebuilding. That's blasphemy. Then you guys are going to send me to hell for what I'm doing to my sport truck .... :evil: I tell you what Jim , I'll trade you my 2.5 or better yet you can have it . Its already cost me just as much as a V8 swap to find and rebuild parts for this dammed thing and it still needs rebuilt . Just found a small block LS1 for 800 bucks with harness and trany . The next time someone thinks this truck is a joke , I'll leave little bits of rubber all over their windshield . This truck will have life again I tell you . :yes: I might pass it up for an LS2 400+ HP GTO motor , we'll see . :bowdown:
  4. I don't mean to burst the fancy bubble but ... My 600 weighs less and pushes more pony's than that shiny second on the house . My liter class bike beats it by at least 25 HP , stock and weighs 15 lbs less ( wet) . Its a cool bike and all , looks badazz too but for that kind money I would rather buy a house and three other faster bikes . My 929 was just dyno tested @ 155 HP , at the wheel and weighs 379 lbs ( wet ) . I always thought it was a cool concept bike but too slow for the money . If the American bike manufacturers are going to compete with the Japs , they'll have to add some HP , shave some weight and drop the price about 100K . A couple of builders around here have made their own , home brewed version using custom frames , Jap liter class motors ( even V twin racing motors ) like the Honda RC 51 and Suzuki TL , style motors with street fighter components . My dream is a Greg's customs frame , Honda RC 211 V motor and custom body work , but the Jeeps keep taking all the toy money . Greg at Greg's Customs made one using a 175 HP ZX 12R motor and all custom made parts . Took the cover of quite a few mags a couple of years ago . As far as I could see the motor was still mostly stock other than little trick things like a custom made clutch cover and fabricated triple tree's .
  5. Yeah , rebuild it with a 383 stroker auto trans and posi lock ... :brows:
  6. Well since no one threw one out for the hardcore boys , I guess I'll toss one or two in ... Pantera ... Walk Aerosmith ... Sweet Emotion Metallica ... Turn the page Johnny Cash ... All I know , the words don't always fit but thats most of what gets played in my truck ... Oh' yeah , Primus ... Jerry was a race car driver , thas my fave . :yes:
  7. :agree: Or ZJ V8 coils .. :yes:

    Post Pics?

    Set a photobucket account , upload pics to your site , click on one of the image tags at the bottom and copy / paste from there .
  11. No, you didn't have to do it. You wanted to do it just to torment me. Well, have I got news for YOU ... My little brother is the unchallenged horrible pun king of the known universe, so have at it, Mate. You can't touch me. ( :fool: Neener neener!) :rotfl2:
  12. WOBBLE! Not "wable" BRAKES Not "breaks" Eagle , I think the wable made it break .... :shake: I know , I had to do it ..... :wavey:
  13. Thats what I figured , thanks guys its going back on . :thumbsup:
  14. Good thing is your going to be good with a little help from the chyro. , I'll never go to a regular doctor again for my bones , they wanted a 20k dollar surgery and I probably wouldn't have been on my feet for weeks if not months . So far , five years of no pain . :cheers: Oh' and the seats look good . :yes:
  15. I had the same thing happen to me , of all places in a stinking elevator . At the bottom with that little jolt , sent a sharp pain right up my back almost completely paralyzed me . The people in the elevator started looking at me like I was having convulsions of a rehabilitated crack head ..... :beerhead: Most expensive elevator ride I've ever taken . :shake:
  16. Thank you Eagle , thats what I thought , I knew the chain needed lubrication somehow and I couldn't find anything that was actually doing anything but the oil sling . Being a bike fanatic , I clean and lube my chains frequently .
  17. I'm almost done with my timing chain on the 2.5 L , so again I refer to the masters of the MJ on a oil sling , needed or not ? A buddy of mine said he threw his away , wasn't needed but I figured I'd check with you guys first before I pitched it .
  18. I sorry that happened to you man , that sucks . On a good note that cab can be fixed , looks like sheet metal drooping , that can be replaced no problem . It looks like all the major support beams and pillars are all in good shape still , nothing a little fiberglass and sheet metal won't cure . If you were closer I'd help you fix it . Might be a good time for a sunroof ... :cheers:
  19. Man , I feel for ya' , be careful with those perc's though , they can bottle neck your digestive system real easy . You don't want to be pinching a brick with your toe throbbing like that . :shake:
  20. Tera-Flex control arms are my favorite but pricy , RE arms are good but almost any aftermarket control arms ride stiff . Maybe for your application WJ LCA's would be a good option .
  21. I used a 97+ HCV from NAPA , no problems .. Buy the one made in the US , not china , its 4 dollars more .
  22. 1, Built D44 with welded axle tubes , Yukon gears and Tera discs , 456's . 2, High steer Tera knuckle swap and steering upgrade . 3, TJ Bucket seats .
  23. Hey if they'd pay me that much , I'll be anyone . :yes: The Mexicans down in Cozumel take pictures of my wife because they say they've never seen Tommy Lee's new wife . I'm going to start cashing in on some of this celeb identity stuff . :wavey:
  24. What about hydro assist ? Some guys like manual steering with hydro assist . I thinking about upgrading to this myself .
