  1. This is my main line of work actually. I do home security, automation, surveillance systems and a/v.
  2. Alcan springs and national springs are will make you exactly what you need. Just quoted $816 from alcan for the pair. Alcans and Deavers are the best bet if you want the perfect custom spring.
  3. Shouldn’t require a case spreader. If all your changing is the pinion bearing than just keep the same shim stack thickness so you won’t have to mess with backlash or pinion depth. The only thing you would need to adjust is bearing preload which has nothing to do with your contact pattern. The carrier shims are inboard of the carrier bearing 99% of the time so they shouldn’t need to be adjusted.
  4. I have that kit sitting in a box waiting to be installed. Once I realized I had to pull the console and shifter I decided to wait and pull the carpet to clean out really well at the same time
  5. I’m going to try to go for this one
  6. I have ppg dimzler on mine. 2019 Aston Martin cinnabar Orange. Lots and lots of pearl. That being said, I used to pint quite a bit with summit single stage low voc. My last coat of base I would mix in some clear along with the single stage. Then I cleared over that but always added a bit of single stage to the clear. Super hard and added much more depth then single stage by itself.
  7. i have also contemplated something similar.
  8. Makes sense I just can’t picture the scenario at the moment. Either way, your custom switch panel is almost finished!
  9. I just don’t understand the need to force 2nd.
  10. That grand wagoneer switch would probably have worked well too
  11. From what I’ve gathered about the eliminator, they had more insulation on the firewall and originally were only 2wd. It wasn’t until 90 I believe when they had a 4wd option. Not sure why but our club seems to have nearly all 91 eliminators ever made.
  12. Are these adjustable arms?
  13. I swear the club must have all 91 eliminators ever produced! Clean truck!
  14. Man we got tons of those over here on island (wild pigs not MJs)
  15. Novak makes them in metal. All of their radiators are remote cap
  16. That should also be for those who dump 20k in their mjs
  17. I know @Red Mistress has used Azzy as have I. I got my MJ keychain, shifter linkage and gauge faces from them. Customer service wasn’t the best I would say tough. But nice products.
  18. Ohh! Nice
  19. and the funny thing is, i still don’t rank as a Comanche addict
  20. This post just reinforces how few HOs there are. Bought mine for 3500. Bad motor, brakes, rust and no interior. Sunk 20+k and counting and countless hours into it. If i was selling i wouldnt take less than 20k. Only thing id trade for is a tjr brute.
  21. I went to college when I was 14 for computer networking. Got my “hardship” license to commute when I was 15. I never imagined how networking would have anything to do with auto but a lot of what I learned I use today. Construction, plumbing, electrical, welding, audio etc. They all have something to add to the automotive field. A/V is what I do to support myself and family and I’ve never worked in the auto industry but that didn’t keep me from learning how to paint, weld, rebuild engines, tune efi etc. If it’s what you really want to do, it just takes ambition. I grew up with chiltons and haynes manuals also
  22. Follow the information that everyone has laid out here. Your in high school right? I think you know how to “hang out”.
  23. First off, get your license. I grew up with my dad restoring old Chevys and mustangs since as far back as I can remember. I started working on go carts and small engines when I was a kid. Took some ASE classes as well which was fun and very hands on. In all reality though, if you are truly interested enough in a field/subject you’ll buy out the time to research and learn more. Try to hang around everyone from restoration shops to shade tree mechanics.
  24. Yep that thread has good info on paint colors that match well. Many of them are not SEM actually. Make sure to do good surface prep and use adhesion promoter on your vinyl and plastic surfaces. I’ve been slowly restoring interior pieces since it’s hard to get those items shipped over here and it’s also getting harder and harder to find them in good shape
