It's still Mama's truck. You'll have to fight with her over it. We're planning a 2005 Explorer AWD chassis swap with a stroked 5.0L this winter!

We'll be taking the 40 and dropping south around Memphis It is a humid mofo there. Gnats, bugs and thunderstorms daily as well. It is not my first choice but family comes first for once. Thank you for the encouragement. I retire from the Marines next Tuesday, leave for GA on the 25 get to GA on the 30th and I start my new career as a DoD Contractor on August 1st. No time to relax if I want to be 100% retired in the next 5 years debt free.

I'm stuck in California until the 25th then we start our trek. Thank you Ben. Hopefully it is uneventful. The MJ sealed the deal. Once she was there I knew there was no way I would leave it. Plus I'm pretty sure it has a cracked block and if I kept driving it bad things were going to happen.

Henry and Shelby are headed to GA to join up with Onyx. I shipped the MJ about 6 months ago when I decided that GA was where we wanted to settle down.

I had a 6' California King and a 8' Gopher Snake swing by a few weeks ago.

A 2000 won't start a RV AC unit. Most 30 amp units require 4000 watts to start it and about 1500 to run them. A start capacitor will help short term but will eventually fry the generator. There are home window AC units you can use that the Honda will start and run.

I'm so glad I made the trip to meet him. He was such a character in real life. Sleep easy my friend.

What he said

I have a TJ tank under my 97 converted MJ. As far as I know I'm the only one who has used a TJ tank.

What plugs are you using? If they are anything but Champion RC12ECC toss them and get new ones.

I saw a couple people turning up their noses when I dropped it off. I don't think it was a neighbor messing with you though. I have had temp and plate stickers stolen before. Usually it is someone who can't pass smog and want to get away with driving their $#!& boxes. I now remove my old stickers and slice up my new stickers so they come off in pieces.

If I have to idle my big truck the first thing I do is put the high idle on. Diesels "wet stack" and will wash down a cylinder if you don't keep heat in them.

My CJ5 spit a wheel on me for no reason. I have never lost a wheel before and luckily for me I was in the dirt when it came off. Glad you caught it before it got worse.

Yep, tried to buy from them and immediately got a fraud notice. I lowered the limit to $250 on that card for sketchy online purchases. If something does go south it's not like I will lose the farm.

Scam, I have a NavyFed card with crazy good fraud protection. As soon as I hit pay it sent me a fraud notice. No harm, no foul. Close that card and get a new one that day.

gogmorgo is spot on. We looked at the diesel before buying our Hemi Trailhawk. It was a demo as the diesels were not being sold because of their issues. We drove it and I was not impressed at all. I have been a diesel mechanic for 25 years and it did not feel like a diesel should. I worried about issues later on with the emissions system. We drove the Hemi next, took it home for the weekend and drove the piss out of it. We put 500 miles on it and loved everything about it. Power? Oh my world is it a beast! Economy? Yep, 22+ on the highway. Comfort? so smooth! the trans knows just what gear to be in and when. The most important difference, LIFETIME Mopar warranty. Unlimited mileage, bumper to bumper warranty. Look into the Max Care if you plan on keeping a vehicle for more than the factory warranty.

wonder how I missed that?

Who was that? I don't remember reading about that?

Same thing I did

I like the eye bolt in the intake. I'm doing that to the 48 Ford tonight!

It's a Dana 35 with the early cover. Some had rubber plugs and some had the metal plug. Either way that is a 35. It is worthless.

UWS

I'm in the hunt for a clean GLH as my DD once it retire. It will look nice sitting beside my Charger in the garage.

I'm partial to my OG turbo Dodges.

Yep, I just went to CC through my browser. Screw Crapatalk.
