K5 all day. Still kick myself that I sold my old one. Albeit it was a Jimmy but all the same. Prices has gotten crazy on them. People wanting 15k for POS rust buckets.

It is but limited Cool thanks for the info.

Cool thanks. Had In-n-Out few years ago in LA. It was decent still don't understand the hype.

Planned a family trip next month to San Diego. Going with another family as well but no real agenda other than the Zoo and possibly Legoland. Will be out there for 5 days. Was wondering if there are any hidden gems or tricks for getting around to stuff?
-
So then gotta ask how much did you pick it up for?

Nice, glad you got it posted over here. NAXJA is fine, kind of, but CC is place for anything comanche related let alone just a cool place.

HA still just swimming around.

Man I thought I was on the "younger" side! Some of y'all couldn't even wipe your own a$$ before I was driving. I'm 35 and will be 36 on the 17th. Age is just a number to me, still manage to do dumb stuff and not act mature, although kids have curtailed majority of those shenanigans.

I was intrigued so I had to see. Made for a good morning chuckle. https://www.buzzfeednews.com/article/michaelrusch/haribo-gummy-bear-reviews-on-amazon-are-the-most-insane-thin

Naw, new kids take the cake for stupid. Eating tide pods, snorting condoms, gorilla glue in your hair....along with all the other they stupid af "challenges". Don't get me wrong I did a lot of dumb stuff but today is a different level. I had jackass growing up so it was fun to watch people do stupid stuff but never had the thought to go mimic behaviors let alone record it. That's the problem today, common sense has been been replaced with the need for gratification from your peers based on shock value. You know that saying mom's always say, "Well if Johnny jumped off a bridge would you do it?" My day the answer was no, today it's gotta do it for the gram.

That grill........ barf. Seriously who decided that was a idea let alone a good one. -

Between here, cruiser54 and youtube; easy if you have the time and willingness to learn. If it's not a primary vehicle even better as they are fine to wrench on in your spare time. As BeatCJ said v6 is meh at best. Also really need to check the floor boards for rust to know what level of rust you are getting into.

This was kind of the reason I offloaded my 88. It was in decent stock shape. I added the ACOS to get rid of the rake and put some XJ wheels on it. Looked great and drove fine. It was fun to poke around in but I really wanted to have something to build. I just couldn't chop up a decent MJ to go beat up. So I sold it and got a builder MJ that I will eventually cut up because of rust. If I only keep the VIN on it and chop the rest I'm not going to feel bad. Personally I don't think MJs can garner the price of say a well done J10 or other classics. While MJ's are rare and unique they just don't have a 20-30k+ following of people waiting to snag them regardless of mods.

Track bars and mounts (upgrading)
Smokeyyank replied to ghetdjc320's topic in MJ Tech: Modification and Repairs
No I didn't have a cross brace on mine. I'd say if your pocket book and time allow go with Ironman. They build beefy products. I have the rear diff cover on my WJ and thing is beautiful. It took a while to get but well worth the wait. -

I ran the IRO double shear on my XJ. No complaints and held up well. Also got one on my WJ just different bracket set up. Nice they have the option to do a flex joint too. -
My wife has something similar but it's her MAC that caused the issue. Basically she just upgraded to the newest version for OS for MAC and it completely crapped everything out. Deleted everything and lost her Microsoft office suite. So now it's either pay for it to use it on her computer or use the free version on line with less features. As crappy as Microsoft is still prefer anything over apple products.

LJ's are awesome. I would say the last great Jeep, let alone Jeep, ever made. They are pricey for decent ones but are awesome.

Snagged some Lawson's Sip of Sunshine tonight. Had it a few times but typically only rolls around when GABF is here. Needless to say pleasantly surprised to find it. Definetly one of my top general IPAs out there. Don' mind the awful pour was trying to multitask and hold the baby.

Smokeyyank replied to ComancheCrewCab's topic in MJ Tech: Modification and Repairs
I mean to each their own, but just a waste of a probably good MJ. Color isn't that bad, wheels are eye bleach worthy. I imagine it's got some angry eyes as well. -

MOOG, spicer and Crown all have parts to build your "kit". Like ghetdjc said, Not one of them has a really all and done set up. MOOG for most the steering will be a good choice just avoid the budget line stuff. Spicer for ball joints. Crown for some other things. Is your MJ lifted or stock? HO and renix difference is only in the engine. Axles is really either CAD or non CAD. Exception being 96+ D30 as it should have the bigger u joints. IIRC there was also something differnet with the knuckles and not sure if that would affect ball joint choices.

Ammo nyc. Not cheap but his products work amazingly well. I used a few things on one of my BMW's and the wife's lexus. https://www.ammonyc.com/product/ammo-reflex-pro-pre-sale/

Reloaded the kegorator. Picked up Coriolis effect from New Image. NEIPA style that is really good. I got through the Myrcenary quicker than I thought and hallelujah. Good beer but an awful keg choice. At 9.3% I'd have 4 and time transport. New choice is solid though. Crazy thing is the disposable keg it came in. It's like a giant soda bottle but with beer.
