  1. That looks like a base model to me. I bet the SS has a somewhat better brake package. :hmm:
  2. Hello, my name is Dustin and I am right here in Flint Michigan.
  3. One of the guys called that cherokee "sexy" in that post. :fool:
  4. I just call mine the Jeep. :dunno:
  5. No, not that I know of.
  6. I used a stock skid plate I found in the JY. Got it for $20.
  7. Started fabbing a mount in the bed for my fuel cell. Ran out of money. :dunno:
  8. Mine fit with saggy stock springs and minimal rubbing when wheeling.
  9. Here's mine:
  10. I have heard the Rocky Road kit is kinda Mickey Mouse. I would steer clear of that one.
  11. For just a street truck 31's look good. And they look fairly large when mounted on a comanche.
  12. It was a 2.8. I used solid motor mounts the triangle looking ones in the Jeg's book. The part number escapes me at this time but with stock coils I could flex it out without hitting the oilpan. I now have a 3" Skyjacker kit on it.
  13. Somebody should rescue it.
  14. Will do. Won't be for awhile though.
  15. :agree: K&N filters are more for vehicles that only see track service. I would not recommend one for offroad or for a daily driver. But we all have our opinions. :dunno:
  16. Sorry couldn't resist.
  17. Mickey Thompson Baja Claws. Aired down they are awesome in mud and slippery wet clay. They clean out very well with just a few blips of the throttle. Oh yeah they ride pretty good on the street too.
  18. Looked at it for a minute while getting the garbage cans out of the garage. Then closed the door again.
  19. Aren't pretty much all new vehicles foreign made and assembled in the U.S? Unless Mexico is part of the United States now.
  20. This is the air cleaner on mine. It made a huge differance.
  21. That airfilter is way too small. Get one from a 84 buick lesabre or any 80'S V8 GM car with a large air box. It should fit over the distributor if that is a HEI. It took me a bit of looking but I used the stock air box bottom from the lesabre as stated but had to find a GM lid that was low profile enough to sit under the hood. The top ended up coming from a 77 Corvette but I have seen them on other vehicles. The engine builder at the racing shop I used to work at explained why the bigger air box was better but I forgot exactly what he said. My truck used to lurch a few times and stall in the middle of the road when it got hot. Switched airboxes to the larger one and haven't had a problem since. :smart: Trust me you will be happier.
  22. What year V8 is in you truck? I know the newer ones do like to run cooler and the older ones are happier hot. I have an older V8 in mine. What size/ type of air box are you using? My truck showed some of the symptoms you are describing when it was hot. Turns out my airbox was too small.
  23. 200 - 220 is about normal operating temp for a chevy v8. If you are gonna run a thermostat ditch the 160 degree and go back to the stock 195 degree. My truck runs about 200 -210 on average with the stock 2.8 radiator. It drops to about 195 or so on the highway.
  24. Two dollar bills are awesome at a gentleman's club. The girls usually think they are twenties. :thumbsup:
