thejum57 Posted October 16, 2010 Share Posted October 16, 2010 Charged the battery, replaced the altenator belt. Started it, and removed the positive battery cable to see if the alt. was good. The AAA guy said it wasn't charging. When I pulled off the cable it kept running. :hmm: I'm thinking I saved about $70.00+ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

AMCJeepMJ Posted October 17, 2010 Share Posted October 17, 2010 Pulled off the front bumper, remounted the KC amber fog lights to the OEM-style location, and reinstalled. Then I took her to the store to buy some Rogue Ales' Dead Guy Ale after the Rangers beat the Yankees. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
beaterheep Posted October 17, 2010 Share Posted October 17, 2010 looked at it, realized i didnt want to be out in the wind and cold doing anything to it, lightbar still needs to be wired, front lights need wiring, belt needs changed, still need to weld on the drivers side rear shock mount. looks nice with the temporary 34's on it though...

JACKED88 Posted October 19, 2010 Share Posted October 19, 2010 I gave it a bath. AINT SHE PURDY??? And detailed the interior ........ (oops, looks like I missed a spot inside that passenger vent) Consider it done. I don't need a new truck to get that "pride of owning a new truck feeling". I get more looks and more compliments on this 22 year old truck than most people get on their brand new ones. Gotta love it!!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
comanche12 Posted October 19, 2010 Share Posted October 19, 2010 removed my front long axle shaft(passenger side)... guess what i noticed, its rusted and cover by dirts! :fs1: then i sudden check the seal. there even no axle shaft seal. and there mud/sand/leftover water inside in the long side axle tube.... :headpop: i sudden put my parts and axle in purple power and start think how to clean the craps from my axle. power wash would be most easy way to remove dirts from inside but wish have a way to use purple power to power wash with it. hopefully my bearings and other parts from inside r ok. :fs2: to preowner again!

You sure? Where are you looking for the seals for? Because they ain't on the end of the axle tube. Rob L. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Geonovast Posted October 20, 2010 Share Posted October 20, 2010 Only the last few inches of the axleshafts are past the seal. Seals are almost inside the diff. There's no point in lubricating the entire shaft. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There's no point in lubricating the entire shaft. Well lubracting's not just for shaft. oil lubricating the bearing, gears, etc. inside, seals jobs are blocking dirts from outside and keep oil stay inside without leaking here whats I'm missing: its circled in gray Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
