fiatslug87 Posted August 24, 2022 Share Posted August 24, 2022 What is that shock connected to? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pete M Posted August 24, 2022 Share Posted August 24, 2022 8 hours ago, fiatslug87 said: What is that shock connected to? the axle was previously used in a spring over configuration and there are shock mounts welded to the axle. problem is that they interfere with the shock if I try the normal mounts, but the shocks do technically fit on those new ones so I stuck them there while I try and figure out if I want to remove the welded mounts or just buy new shorter shocks (these shocks are very old).

pago cruiser Posted October 1, 2022 Share Posted October 1, 2022 Dang! That dog can jump! Assuming the dog is about 2' tall, and the tires are about 5', that's 2.5X his (or her) height. Assuming you are about 6', that would be like you jumping 15' up to the level of a 2nd floor of a bldg. Cute dog. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
1990 DAW long bed Posted October 1, 2022 Share Posted October 1, 2022 Literally drove an hour after purchasing my 1990 MJ today and smelled a brake/clutch smell after cruising for so long. Turns out my driver side brake we’re smoking when I came to a total stop at a fuel station. After taking the wheel off it was seizing up and extremely hot. Plan on replacing both the front wheel hubs and brake calipers asap. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

thecodemonk Posted November 4, 2022 Share Posted November 4, 2022 Installed the headlight harness upgrade kit ice had sitting here for years. Lights seem a little brighter at a glance. Will see how it looks at night another night. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gogmorgo Posted November 6, 2022 Share Posted November 6, 2022 Got my parking brake functional. Couple circlips under the rivet head and a stronger spring for the ratchet pawl. Got the pedal working mint, then just had to deal with both the equalizer bracket and the rear brakes themselves being wildly out of adjustment. Noticeably better brakes on the way home too, despite the first big dump of snow of the season turning the world to garbage. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
