  1. So is the security zip tie a must have with this mod? I was just gonna use one of those plastic clipy things off the hot dog buns.....
  2. Yup thats the ones. Nevermind the shepard ear....
  3. Isn't tim blankenship one if the hosts from that TV show mxc?
  4. Looks pretty clean for a MI jeep. Better keep her garaged till july when they snows gone.
  5. Holy smokes. If my interior looked half that good when it stripped it is would have been impressed. Thats probably the cleanest ive ever seen.
  6. My springs were the "comanche club special" I believe they were 3.5" over stock with the metric tonne capacity. I think they are 5 leaf. I am running 31" x 10.50/15 general grabber atx. Pretty happy with the setup so far.
  7. Spray some water on it. Too hot. Needs cooled.....
  8. I have GS military wraps with 3" built in. Spring under. I went 4.5" re coils and the truck sits pretty much level so far. I have about 2000 miles in them and no major settling yet. I have loaded them enough to squat the rear of the truck. They will squat about 1-2" and then hold really well with a load. Overall in am really happy with them. Might swap the fronts for a 3.5" just to gain some rake when empty and help it hold a load closer to level. Here is the closest comparison I have to loaded and unloaded.
  9. Yes sir I remember the yahoo Thats way back
  10. Comanche Club: voted best forum ever by entire membership.
  11. Lol. I drilled the old rivets and just put mine in the new dash with pop rivets. It'll pass a hoosier inspection.....
  12. Good to know you found something you enjoy. "If you do what you love, you'll never work a day in your life" - John Dutton

  14. This made me look to see when it joined..... Holy craps thats been a minute. Lol But my anniversary is coming up. 1/29/07 And another vote for Comanche Club setting the standard above the standard for forums and that includes the quality of the membership.
  15. 31's and 3.07. Thats your problem.
  16. No just a wrench in a ring gear bolt and let the wrench bind against the housing while rotating the pinion. The mechanical advantage of the gears gives you the avility to push the carrier out of the housing. I found this guys tricks helpful.
  17. Put a wrench on a ring gear bolt and rotate the pinion. Your fighting bearing preload. This is where the pros would use a case spreader.
  18. Great story telling. Glad yo hear you found a booster.
  19. Yes my breather system is intact and functioning. I still get seapage around the cap. I tried shimming the old gasket to no avail. Its either leaking or too tight to get back on the valve cover.
  20. Edit: I misread the post and thought the thermostat housing was broke. Not sure there is a good fix for this short of a head replacement. Being cast it will be difficult to repair.
  21. I can attest to this. I lost a nice turbine with a brand new 31" tire. Add a strap. The piece of mind is worth it.
