  1. hahaha! ive got some right now too. sucks balls big time. its only a little spot or two on my arm but I'm used to it. working in the woods i come in contact with it almost everyday. usually i don't get it but every now and then. the vinegar does burn it so nicely but i never really thought it did much besides that. the bleach i hear works and know several people who do it. i however, don't. something about it doesnt sit right with me. i just used Ivarest lotion this go round and rub straight alcohol (cotton balls) on it the first few days when putting on new lotion. id say your in it for about a week. itll look nice and nasty bubbly about half way through. thats a good thing though. you know its almost gone then :D theres a decent cream out there too. one that blends in to the skin unlike Ivarest or other calamine based ones.
  2. :thumbsup:
  3. damn brandon, makes me think of a fire truck lol. you should just go on and swap that valve cover for a newer one while your tinkering with it. no blow-by issues, ever.
  4. if you run the roads a lot, get ATs. if your offroad a lot, get MTs. simple as that but really you can do whatever you want. ATs will give you good on road manners and some offroad traction. MTs will give a loud hum on the road and wear faster (some say) but give great off road traction. if you just keep the MTs at a decent psi and make sure it stays aligned, they'll do fine on road.
  5. see ive heard anywhere from 15% to 30% but at least I'm not the only one saying this :thumbsup:
  6. besides clearance issues, ive also heard that hp reverse cut gears are stouter then normal ones. anyone have proof of this?
  7. this weekend my Rock Krawler 3 link is going on. ill have plenty of pics and thoughts on the arms once its done.

    Crazy mad flex

    ignore the fool in the picture, i had just gotten up :chillin: tire was about two inches off the ground in those. all in all ive got about 26-28 inches of flex before the tire comes up. 4.5 hell creek lift
  9. radiator barn didnt have what i wanted or i didnt see it. how much that set you back hornbrod? hell ill check into it :thumbsup:
  10. its easy as hell to swap a u joint. remove brake caliper, rotor, axle nut 36mm, three 12 point 13mm bolts hold the hub in, remove those, tap or use the steering to pop the hub out, you might pull the axle shaft out with the hub but i gave a light tap on the axle shaft and it popped out of the hub. the other just slid out take shaft out, i used a bench vice, $#!& here lol http://www.4x4wire.com/tech/axle/ujoint/
  11. nope havent changed the tank but there is a huge dent in the front of it from a rock. i wouldnt think it would cause any problems since the noise just started and the dent has been there. two of you guys said it might not be sitting correctly, so i guess ill look into that first
  12. is that like a dodge pre-runner back there or whats that all about?
  13. is that an easy fix? it doesnt seem like a rattle but more of like vvmmmm, click but not so much a click. if that makes sense. it does it non stop whenever its running.
  14. everytime i run the Mj the fuel pump is loud. i can hear it, pumping, i guess. is that normal or is it on the way out? its never really done that before (or that i can recall) so its got me wondering about it. thanks
  15. thats almost as far fetched as you forgetting to paypal me back that 1500 right before the storm hit :nuts:
  16. which one did you get? i never ordered mine. bought the front locker instead :D
  17. i agree i love my 21 slot grill. i think its my new favorite or ive just gotten used to it cause people still tell me its ugly! :thwak:
  18. sucks for you! my dog doesnt do anything unless i give him the go ahead. i can put out a steak on a plate and he won't touch it. now if it was on the floor he might but the plate would throw him off. got to love those huskys
  19. nice! my driverside mirror was hangin like that after my last outting as well. suck when you get up speed and its flopping everywhere lol
  20. hm ill check it out. now I'm thinking just buy a locker instead. my radiator only leaks a little and mainly when I'm idle or cruising around slow. like on a trail. however I'm going on a trail run this month so I'm trying to install my long arms. figured, while the front axle is out might as well lock it up. that'll give me a better chance on the rocks or just a better chance ill shatter a shaft. either way the rad doesnt leak bad but it trickles really. i could prolly run all weekend up there and not have to fill up the bottle. idk :dunno:
  21. I'm about to buy it then. i thought it sounded right but just wanted to make sure
  22. i just want to make sure this one is a good one. its all metal, three row, drop in fit. tell me what you think http://racewayparts.com/1984-1990jeepch ... iator.aspx
  23. ^^^^sweet please tell me that STP is not for the MJ. i put one on and not long (like 2 weeks) after it was @#$%ed up and caused my low oil pressure issue. which cost me dough since i bought a high flow pump but all i needed was a WIX.
  24. your truck gets called a toyota more times then not :fool: i mean can people not read
