What! No Jeep Pic's. You could at least put one of yours in there. J/K :D X2 on the Challenger and can't wait to see them Camaros running the streets. :cheers:

Well got a little bit more done. Pulled the bed back off and dropped the rear axle. POR-15 some of the frame and then used chassis coat from POR-15 to paint the frame and under cab. Still have to do the front forward of the control arms, but that will be later when I redo the suspension. Will pull the leafs apart and get them cleaned up and painted next. Plus will go ahead and undercoat the cab while everything is out of the way. Slowly but surely. :popcorn: :cheers:

X2 :D 46. Your wallet is always empty. :laughin: I just printed this out. Will look good in the garage next to the work bench.

Nice camera. Those aren't cheap. So here's a link to the manual so you can have it in the future. http://ca.konicaminolta.com/support/man ... index.html Right click and save it. It will be a lot quicker. So acording to the chart on page 83 of this owners manual, at 2560 x 1920, using extra fine, the average file size is 4.9 meg. So with that the 1GB card can hold approx. 200 pics. edit: If you set the camera up to the different settings, the frame counter will tell you how many pic's can be taken at that setting. :cheers:

For most of my shipping, I use Fedex. They are 9 times out of 10 cheaper than UPS. You can go to there web sites to get quotes. For large items that don't weigh alot, like your bench seat, you can use Greyhound. There a lot cheaper that Fedex or UPS. And for really heavy items, I use freightquote.com , they give you quotes from a variety of trucking and shipping companies. I don't ever use USPS unless I absolutly have to. Trying to file a claim with them is like sawing your own leg off. :cheers:

One of the best movies of all times. R.I.P. Roy Scheider And yea that is one big fish. "Swallow you whole. No shakin', no tenderizin', down you go."

Well, you camera's manual should give you some sort of idea how many pictures at what resolution the 1GB card can hold. If not, look at it this way. Set the camera at it's best resolution and take a couple of pic's, down load them and see how big the file size is. Now if it's 1 meg, then you could take roughly 1024 pic's, 2 meg is 512, 3 meg 341, 4 meg 256, 5 meg 204, you get the idea. So based on 1 GB = 1024 Meg's, even if they were 5 Meg's each, 204 photo's is a lot for one trip. That is unless it's like a month long. :cheers:

:eek: And I thought $800 for an Akita was high. I've always manage to do the pound rescue, however I did get a pruebred Basset hound once. Had it for about two months and sold it. It had to be the dumbest dog I've ever owned. :dunce: Must have come from inbreeding. :D

yeah i just don't like the fact that anyone around town can spot me. i feel exposed Rubbing compound will take that right off. Cheaper that buying rattle cans, just more elbow grease. :D And welcome to the Club. :cheers:

Looks like a wolf / shepherd hybrid. Very nice looking dog. What kind of price do those sell for? :cheers:

here's one choice but there are more out there. Click here :cheers:

Very nice informative post. I think Motion Offroad, without a doubt covered all the bases. :clapping: Has me re-thinking my 4.5 lift options. Thanks :thumbsup: :cheers:

This is true if he has a SYE on the t-case, however seeing how he said That leads me to think the shaft slipped out of the slip yoke on the t-case. If that is the case, the pinion angle of the axle needs to be equal to the angle on the t-case. Either way we need more info on his set up to know for sure. :cheers:

Is this the pic your looking for? Came from this threat. http://www.comancheclub.com/forums/view ... light=hose :cheers:

I quoted this because looking at this thread through the day, it appears that no one with a 6.5" lift installed on their rig has offered his/her opinions. We had 6", an uninstalled 6.5", a vender pointing him to his site, and then the ole, let's slip back into the long arm, short arm, and drop bracket debate. Now I don't mean to highjack this thread, or pissoff those that have posted, but give the guy what he asked for, opinions of a 6.5" lift that you are running. Here is the thread that Motion copy and pasted from, which again was asking for help with a 6.5" lift decision. http://www.comancheclub.com/forums/view ... sc&start=0 You can come back and flame me but I'm only telling it like I see it. :cheers:

Been running without my front driveshaft on the tj for a little while now with no noticable difference in milage. Like Pete said, "it's a brick." On a side note, maybe the postman will deliver my driveshaft today. :D

The sending units that have gone bad on me did the opposite but that don't mean they can't bounce the other way. Mine would read right until I stopped, then bounce down to zero in pressure. The spring inside them crap out and make the pressure gauge wrong. I'd say you have a very good chance it's the sender. edit: If anything, it should be the cheapest part to replace to find out if that is your problem. :cheers:

Wow, that is something you don't see everyday. I'm not sure how many private collectors of NAZI stuff are out there. I would think your best bet, if you can prove it's history would be a museum. Listing that in an ad, might not be such a good idea. Just my thoughts. :cheers:

I have a 135 psi 25 gal. I set the output at about 80 psi and it does just fine. Almost to good. I spent about 2 hrs tonight using it. Changed out the abrasive for a more aggressive one and it made a night and day difference. I'm going to have to chaulk the seams though. Really fine dust now covers everything in the garage. If I would have run the vacuum I could have avoided this but I've already burned up one vac in the past 6 months. It's still better than all the sand everywhere. I've got a few other tweaks to do on it that should make it garage friendly. If not, it will just have to be an outside toy. :cheers:

:agree: Here's a write up thread with some pics Click Here :cheers:

:bowdown: SWWEEETT! :clapping: :banana: :jump: :beerhead:

You may want to check your vacuum supply reservoir. It's that football looking thing behind the front bumper on the passenger side. It controls quite a bit of the heater controls that require vacuum. :cheers:

Well I'll try to keep this simple :brows: Materails include; 3/8 inch plywood, piece of plexiglass, couple of hinges, wire mesh, deck screws, few nuts and bolts, weather stripping, and some sheet rubber(gasket material) Tools used; Circular saw, drill, scroll saw, and assorted hand tools. Basically, I put the 4 sides together, 36" x 22". The back is 20" tall and the front is 19" tall. The sides slant matching the front and back. I just pre-drilled small holes then screwed them together with 1 1/4" deck screws. Then I made the top matching the dimensions, cut out a window, used 1" strips of gasket material just outside the opening, placed the plaxiglass on top of the strips, drilled holes in the plexiglass throught the top, and then used small nuts and bolts to attach. The bottom was the tricky part. First I made 2 5" x 22" strips of plywood and attached them to the bottom on both ends. This gives a flat spot to sit the cabinet on the saw horses. I then cut 2 pieces of plywood 22" long and the inner dimension of the cabinet. These will make the well that all the abrasive will sit in. The top edge of those was about 5" up the side wall and angled down to meet in the middle of the cabinet with the other side( like a V). With them in place you measure and make a triangle that will close off the rest of the bottom. 36" across and the tallest point of the triangle was 13". These will be verticle with the front and back walls. Screw it all together. I took two of the triangle pieces that came as a result of cutting the other triangles and used them to angle in from the front and back. This makes the deep part of the well in the center. I cut 2 circles in the front for your arms. Cut a ring out of plywood that was bigger than the holes and sandwich a piece of gasket material between them. Cut a much smaller opening in the gasket material than the hole. This will make the gasket material fit tight around you arm when you put it through. Did the same thing except smaller for the vacuum hole in the top back side wall. Nozzle for the vacuum is held tight in the hole. Also a small hole on the side for the airhose to pass through. Made a screen working platform by making a picture frame sandwiching the screen inbetween plywood matching the inner dimensions of the box, but making it about 5" short on one end. This allows you to work the siphon hose into the abrasive in the well. On the opposite side that you put the vacuum hole in, I drill about ten half inch holes near the top to allow air to come in when the vacuum is running. I put a piece of plywwod about 4" wide at a 45 degree angle in the corner to make a small passage so the incoming air will come out at the bottom and makes it harder for dust to get out. Last thing I did was use some 1/4 inch weather stripping on the top edges of all 4 sides to seal the top when closed. Attach the top with the 2 hinges and make some way to hold it closed tight. I used a screw attached to the top and side with a string but will use a latch when I find it in my pile of extra parts. The gun is just a regular siphon blasting kit that you can get a most hardware stores for under $20. I shorten the pickup tube so I wouldn't have all that extra in the cabinet. Everything I used, with the exception of the gloves, was something that was in my garage taking up space. Now it is being useful and taking up even more space. :D I like the idea about the large tumbler, may have to give that one some thought. Now if you read all this and it makes since, I'll pass the star onto you. :cheers:

Nice job. May want to consider when you have the header off and apart, paint the center section black so when you reinstall the grille and headlights, you won't be able to see the lighter colors through the grille. Not a bad time to touch up the A/C condenser as well. :cheers:

So I got rid of my pressure tank blaster yesterday and decided to build me a blasting cabinet. I used all the leftover plywood from adding my garage and things leftover from other projects and what not. So here it is. Don't laugh. :D used a siphon feed blaster gun and you can see the vacuum output near the top The gloves are the only thing I had to get. $4 at Northern Tools. Tested it out real quick on a bucket seat bracket. It did pretty good even with the vacuum off. I've got a leak here and there but very minor. I'm going to get some different abrasive though. I had some glass bead but it is way to fine and will take to long to do all the things I need to get done. When I pull the glass abrasive out, I'll probably caulk the seams to get rid of the leaks, however I screwed the whole thing together so I can disassemble it later and use the materials on something else. :brows:
