  1. Hey man I think you got a little brown stuff on your nose. Honestly a great idea. I will be adding to the "to do" list.
  2. Very carefully most of the time.
  3. Sweet, I installed a usb port in place of my on dash power port in the WJ. I found with the power port the first thing I did was plug in a usb adapter. So I moved the power port to the factory knock out in the hatch. Still have the 12V option if i need it for something but the fast charge usbs are the berries.....
  4. Yes sir it is. Make sure you clean the electrical connection when you install the new one. Corrosion can cause issues with the gauge.
  5. I agree with all of this. With the addition that drop brackets arent the only option. The same objective can be achieved with proper control arms. Shocks are important!
  6. That statement confuses me. How does a 3/4" difference translate to a 2" difference in rake? When I set up my control arms I started with the location of the tire in the wheel well. After that i set my pinion angle. Then I made adjustments to the trackbar to center the axle under the body.
  7. So whats the verdict when you measure the right way? Definitely make the lift up in the springs not the shackles. You'll thank yourself.
  8. Maybe he should just sell me the truck. I can put some cardboard down under it.
  9. Tower of power? https://www.google.com/imgres?imgurl=https%3A%2F%2Fimg.boot24.com%2Fhs%2Fobl%2F469%2F469808%2Fmotor-aussenborder-mercury-469808-115ps-2-takt-oldtimer-tow-4-4-141839.jpg&imgrefurl=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.boats24.com%2Fengine%2Foutboard%2Fmercury%2F469808%2F115ps-2-takt-oldtimer-tower-of-power-6-zylinder.html&docid=yj_Y4Nq3Rj6PVM&tbnid=9_Xeilyo8oyGWM&vet=1&source=sh%2Fx%2Fim
  10. Was working 3 miles from home today..... Sorry for the crappy pics. They didnt wait for me to get the camera out. Lmao
  11. No I was refering to your truck. I think its a gem of a survivor. Just wish I was old enough to have bought one brand new. Unfortunately when they stopped sales my 14yr old self wasnt into cars yet.
  12. I can try but its pretty dark out and it doesnt sound like they are flying right now......
  13. I live under regular training flight plans for the airbase. Fun to watch the a10's run their practice flights.
  14. This is correct. I ordered a 70'something CJ pilot bushing for my AX15 swap. Worked perfectly.
  15. The lock solenoid connectors are the same for all 4 doors on the xj. Just throwing it out there for a rebuildable source.

    ouch...

    Ive never dealt with a tendon issue. But I assume its similar to dealing with a ligament. Limit use till it heals. The immobilizer helps alot. It kept me from making those accidental movements that hurt so bad.
  17. Nothing wrong with drums when properly installed and maintained. They worked for many years. Discs are simpler and easy to work on. But it seems to me the key to braking would be contact area. My park brake (uses the rear drums only) will easily stall out my truck when clamped down.

    ouch...

    Could you go to the local Walgreens or cvs and get a leg immobilizer. If it is a tear in a ligament or tendon thats most likely what the er will do instill you get a MRI. I know about knee tears. Part of the reason I sold my 400ex. Lol Just read your post. Suprised they didnt immobilize it.

    Dang pete. Glad you are ok. Hope your days get better.
  20. *semi professional. I don't get paid. ^ has a shorter stick....
  21. wish I would have known you needed one. I have a manual harness I took out of mine. Was your aw4 any good?
  22. That is an awesome look. Uniquely classic.
  23. I have a late model seal in mine. We ground down a few of my pins on each side. Wasn't "necessary" they were just closer to the glass than I was comfortable with. It can be done with out grinding.
