Jeep 2, Japan 0. How's that for a World Cup.

I did have an issue with an SKF unit bearing. I thought it was the Shaefler unit. The tire puckered a bit. Both were purchased from NAPA.

Um, Star Wars New Hope. Blade Runner. Jaws. RUSH. Alien. Deer Hunter. Indiana Jones. The A Team.

For some reason, Ford Explores have their following. Also, Ford rangers and Chevy S-10s.

I have not done it myself. I have had the manifolds, and put them on a '95 head. I doubt they last long, a start leaking very soon.

The two piece cast manifolds are for the smaller exhaust ports of the 0331 heads. There is about 1/16 'wall' if used on earlier heads. Not much sealing area. I think Pace Setter and possibly Clifford has headers for the RENIX. I did use a RENIX, and have a Cliford (bolted on, but not used).

Haven't done it myself. I would coat the portion going into the ground with a tar sealant. I do have plenty of examples in WV of post just put into the ground. Also, you might coat the top of the post. Or put some type of cap on it. My mailbox post rotted away. Neighbor Daughter-in-Law hit it while moving. She was really upset about it. Replaced it with an aluminum post the neighbor had. Took some convincing to the DiL that it wasn't her fault.

What I did, is initially upgraded to a '91-95 HO VC. It allowed a larger hose. You also need to the 97+ fitting to the intake manifold. The 93-95 GC (Grand Cherokee) has the CCV fitting of the latter 97-up steel VCs. I did do the Cruiser 'upgrade' to them. The 91--95 HO VCs and the 93-95 GC VC have the aluminum inner towers. Another possibly 'solution' is to put on a 'breather' to the front hole of the VC. Thus the air filter box won't be sucking air and oil into the filter. Some use a hose to space the breather a bit from the VC. Also, you can use RTV in place of the VC gasket.

Heat won't damage anything in the area. Just get the bolt or nut to a dark red, if you can. Also, you can try and grind off the nut. Then spray with a rust buster.

I run two on my Chevy Avalanche. I run a Radiant and another, UMD ???. I do catch some oil. Maybe a teaspoon every 500 miles. I run about 10:1 compression, with 88 octane. If a higher compression, then possibly run a catch can. On the 4.0L, most run the catch can on the rear CCV tube. If oil in the air filter, then its either the rear CCV tube needs upgrade to 97+ or its blocked up with crude. On mine, I used the FlePro rubber gasket. Upgraded to a 93-95 CG valve cover.

'Currently someone found a GM EV1 and is in the process of restoring it with help from GM'. I think they found it in a parking garage in the Carolinas. Technically, GM leased the EV1's. So, GM took them back and probably crushed them. Not sure of the legal aspect of the one acquired. Probably since it was past 7 years, or such, sold as an abandoned vehicle. On the gearing and manual trans. Most of them 1st gear was just a bump gear. Just got you going. Sort of the save the clutch from people who didn't know how to shift a manual trans.

I think NOVAK has a complete kit. I think I bought some lower price kit. Then ended up having to buy other parts. The total price was not much difference. And that's not including shipping. I'd try and get a kit with KOYO or Nachi bearing. National, SKF and Timken would be a plus.

??? + Lindsey Buckingham. I'm listening to Elton John, Best of #2.

Yeah, such a good song. To have Stevie Nick and ??? as back up at that time is amazing.
